SWTOR Alliance Commander Ask Game!
Good god I found this in my drafts from like 5ever ago, oopsieee. Better late than never ig? :’)
I was tagged by the wonderful @outcastcommander, thank you Cast! :’D I’m super late to the party (as usual), so apologies for any repeat tags etc. qAq
I’m not tagging anyone in this purely because I am so fucking late to this party I’m so sorry ;w; XD but if you want to do this then go for it!!
1) Who’s your Alliance Commander? What class are they? Alignment? Random other facts you wanna share?
I actually have 2(3 counting Aria!) that all take different “parts” of the Commander storyline if you will.
Vano Shenly - Neutral Good/Light IV - Sith Warrior. The one who takes a carbonite nap, and who ends up subjected to Valkorion in her head. Aria’s wife and (one of) the one(s) who can actually keep Aria’s...murder tendencies, under control.
Saarai Ahaszaai - Chaotic Good/Light III - “Sith Warrior” (not actually a warrior and is in fact a descendant of the former Sith Royal Line, forced into exile when Valkorion/Vitiate took over the Empire as otherwise she would’ve been killed), Takes the Eternal Empress half of the Commander saga and commands the Eternal Fleet. Extremely tired of Valkorion’s shit, wants to Go Back To Her Beach Hut On Rishii Please And Thank You. XD
Aria Saal-Shenly - Chaotic Neutral/Dark II - Jedi Consular (Sith Assassin). Worked as a Sith plant for years, culminating in the Assault On Tython flashpoint battle. “Local dumbass tries to fight Satele and gets her vibes checked into next YEAR” LMAO. Vano’s wife, would fistfight Valkorion to get him out of Vano’s head if that were physically possible.  Technically not a full Commander in that she doesn’t take any of the “important” story strands but she’s Vano’s Emotional Support Commander ok? /lh
2) What’s a reason or two you like that this character is your Commander?
Vano - She was the first toon I ever did the expansions with, so she kinda got slid into the Commander role by default there. I’m also very much of the angle that the Alliance genuinely is a melting pot of all the better things from both Jedi and Sith and having Vano be (one of) the leader(s) of that really helps to show that. She’s not perfect and has done some dicey things and killed some people she shouldn’t have in the past, but for the most part just wants to solve things as peacefully as possible.
Saarai - She’s my favourite. Ahem I mean....I’m a sucker for “long lost princess taking her crown back but not in the way her overbearing ghost mom wanted her to”. Rai’s just a Very Fun character especially being a big and scary Sith who, when you get to know her is Actually A Very Sweet Person and its really fun to have her do the opposite of what’s expected and watch NPCs be super shocked about how nice/chill she is. Rai’s also the only one Strong Enough to actually kill Tenebrae when they get to that point
Aria - Honestly its just funny. Saarai or Vano try to go about things diplomatically and Aria’s first idea is always “Murder? >:)” She’s the one standing behind them with a “Want me to kill them for you? :’))” sign. Also, again, sucker for an anti-hero and Ari fits that bill to a T. She doesn’t like being nice to people but she’ll do it for her wife even if she complains about it at every possible opportunity and its incredibly funny to work with sdkjdhgjkdgj
3) What’s a reason or two you don’t like about them being Commander?
Vano - Despite being nice Most of the Time, she’s a petty ass bitch sometimes and does not know how to let things go, which creates a lot of tension with certain important alliance personnel (Koth, among others...) that makes certain plot points more difficult. There are certain points where she makes very Darksided decisions (due to stress, Valkorion’s influence etc etc) that are pretty Hard for me to stick to even if its what makes the most sense story-wise.
Saarai- SHE’S TOO DAMN NICE AND WANTS TO HELP EVERYONE INCLUDING VAYLIN. Rai please some of these people Legitimately Want To Kill You, they don’t want Hugs /hj
Aria - Same answer as above, re: “want me to kill them?” “NO”. Also when running her through that content I have to pick a lot more DS options than I myself would normally choose to because I know its something Aria Would Do and that is often Challenging for me!
4) Why did this character of all your OCs become Commander?
Vano - She’s canonically Vitiate’s Wrath, so it made most sense for her to deal with the carbonite nap side of the storyline. Also it would be way more boring and confusing if Rai did all of it lmao
Saarai - She’s my favourite. Valkorion/Vitiate/Tenebrae killed her parents and the rest of her family and for the most part I really wanted to give her the opportunity to canonically run him through for that. Girl deserved it after everything she went through cause of what he did to them. Also in spite of Vano’s other life experiences, she often backs down too easily and that’s where Rai comes in. She’s 6 ft 3 and built like a semi truck, she can intimidate people into backing off/calling off attacks without ever actually having to Get Violent, most of the time.
Aria - She and Vano are a package deal, you take em both or you get neither of them. Fully srs LOL
5) Who did they side with? Did they stay loyal or go saboteur? Or maybe you headcanon they defect properly?
At first, they side with Acina/the Empire, but especially towards the newer expansion stuff (AFTER KOTET), even Acina starts to get on their nerves and I headcanon the Alliance goes fully neutral at that point. They refuse to pick a side but can (and do) choose to get between the Imps and the Pubs before they Blow Each Other Up again.
6) Are there any NPC’s from the class stories you’d like to see/HC join the Alliance? Ex: Master Timmns, Ardun Kothe, Watcher One, etc.
YES! I HC that both Catha Niar and Cytharat go with Vano to Odessen/the Alliance (more accurately Catha replaces Quinn as Vano’s second pilot after the Quinncident, and Cytharat becomes apprenticed to my Sith Inquisitor who follows Vano to the Alliance)
I’m also kidnapping Vowrawn and Abaron (even tho Abaron has one (1) sidequest in-game I accidentally gave him Lore so he’s Mine now /hj), they join the Alliance shortly after the Iokath arc :D 
And I would love for Master Timmns to come join the Alliance too tbh, I just haven’t worked out how/when yet! 😅
7) How’s your OC feeling about the current Malgus situation?
I have not actually played fully through anything past the Tenebrae part yet so I’m not 100% sure to have an answer to this. Although, probably “annoyed”. ala “can we not leave you people unsupervised for FIVE MINUTES?!” 😂😂
8) Are any of your other OC’s part of the Alliance? If yes what do they do for the Alliance? Do they get along with your Commander?
Ni’kasi Ahaszaai - Lawful Neutral/Grey/Light I -  Sith Inquisitor. Saarai’s twin sister and Vano’s best friend. She dips out of the Empire the moment Vano and Lana do and goes with them to the original meet-up on Yavin IV, and this only cements her decision to defect to the Alliance when she discovers her twin is alive and also leading it alongside Vano. Ni’kasi is part of Vano and Rai’s inner circle of advisors, or the Alliance High Council if you will (alongside Lana, Koth, Theron, Hylo etc etc.). Ni’kasi is in charge of the Force Enclave as she’s the most experienced with the Force Fuckery side of things, in all honesty hahaha Adores Rai the most but is pretty close with Aria and Vano as well and considers them her best friend/a good friend respectively!
Merak Shenly & Ziv’erikreen - True Neutral/Light II - Smugglers. Merak is Vano’s little brother, and Ziri is the street kid he accidentally-on-purpose adopted after he found her as an orphan in a run down hospital on Taris. They work for Hylo as the Alliance’s main cargo freighter/transport pilots! They love Vano & Aria but Saarai kinda scares them. Giant Sith Lady = Scary, even if she’s Nice All The Time. Merak can’t quite shake the Sith = Bad mentality after all it was the Sith that took Vano from them on Mirial even if Rai had nothing to do with that, it’s a hurdle he can’t get past D:
Tyûk Ahaszaai - Neutral Good/Light IV/V - “Sith Warrior” - Saarai’s son and Ni’kasi’s nephew. Like Rai, he has the SW class in-game but doesn’t enter the plot until Forged Alliances/Rishii because he and Rai are hiding out there. He’s just happy to be here, honestly XD He’s not very good at fighting (and hates doing so) but he is an extremely talented blacksmith/weaponsmith. If someone in the Alliance has a broken saber or damaged armour, Ty’s the one they go to to get it fixed up uvu He adores his mom and thinks Va and Ari are “okay”. Aria’s a little stabby for his tastes. Vano’s alright but where Vano goes, so does Aria so he tends to prefer to stay away from them bc he...doesn’t really like Aria hahaha
D’leah Ahaszaai - Lawful Evil/Dark I/II - “Sith Inquisitor”/Force ghost - D’leah’s already dead by the time the Alliance is made, but she’s one of the Force ghosts hitching a ride in Kas’s head so by extension she does end up here lol. She’s the only ghost Ni’kasi doesn’t “release” after the Thanaton fight, because for the most part she kinda still likes having her mom to go to for advice 🥲 Come the time of the Alliance setting up on Odessen, D’leah tends to hang around the Force Enclave watching them teach the kids and occasionally giving the twins advice when/if they ask for it, rather than being directly attached to Kas herself, but as long as the girls are happy to have her there then her ghost ass is staying right on Odessen and not leaving hahaha Surprisingly, likes all 3 of the commanders and ofc loves her daughters tho she and Rai had a bit of a confrontation first (there’s backstory stuff they had to sort out first before they could go back to being OK :3)
I also have a (Light-side) Jedi Knight that I plan on chucking into the mix at some point but she is very much Not Fleshed Out At All rn so I can’t say any more than that currently LOL
9) How does your OC feel about Odessen? (Bonus: how do you feel about it)
They like it! It’s peaceful and balanced in the Force, what’s not to like about it? :D Saarai and Ni’kasi in particular are quite fond of it as its a bit closer to Dromund Kaas and/or Medriaas than say, Rishii was, and so it reminds them of their childhood etc etc,
Also I LOVE Odessen, I just wish we could explore more of it when not directly involved in the quest parts. LET ME GO RUN AROUND IN THE JUNGLE BIOWARE I BEG
10) How does your Commander feel about being the Commander?
Vano - She’s committed to trying to provide a safe haven that doesn’t force Force sensitives (esp. younger ones) to make an impossible choice between family & learning about the Force so she’s all in 100%. She’s not perfect and makes mistakes sometimes but that’s what her advisors are there for!
Saarai - She doesn’t exactly like it, but she understands that she has a natural air of authority and that people look up to and/or respect her. Her attitude is very much “If I don’t do this for them, no one will” sort of deal. But she’s never wanted to be a leader she just wants to go back to the beach with her son before all this complicated stuff happened ;-;
Aria - Actually enjoys it. She doesn’t like being the one calling all the shots but she’s taken surprisingly well to helping Vano with it.
11) Favorite place in the Alliance base?
Vano & Aria - I’m not really sure tbh, they really like the whole planet and don’t have a specific fav place.
Saarai - definitely the jungle. It reminds her of Dromund Kaas which she’s never been back to without having to worry about Diplomacy so she likes that she can just wander off into the jungle and sit out there and watch the wildlife for a bit and pretend that it is Kaas <’3
12) Favorite mission in KotFE?
Chapter 4 where they get the Gravestone, and Chapter 14/the Blood Hunt flashpoint where they first meet Shae Vizla and her Mandos. I care that Mando husband/wife duo so much ok. ;w;
13) Favorite mission in KotET?
Chapter 6 where you crash that big party of Vaylin’s. It’s so much fun. Also the final boss fight is p cool :’3
14) Least favorite mission in either? Why?
The fucking walker missions. That needs no other explanation LOL
15) Is your Commander successful because they’re skilled? Or are they perhaps just really lucky?
Honestly, a bit of both for all 3 of them lmao
Vano - She’s an incredibly talented saber duellist, and also has the most experience (much to her dismay) with Vitiate/Valkorion so naturally it made sense for her to be the leader as she’d know how to “deal with” him best.
Saarai - Slightly because of Luck since its Sheer Dumb Luck that she got away from Vitiate’s Inquisitors and they were too stupid to Check How Many Kids D’leah Had And Make Sure There Was More Than Just One (Kas) before they assumed They’d Won. BUT she’s also (despite preferring not to get physical if she can help it) incredibly powerful and strong so it’s nice for the Alliance to have a giant Pureblood who is Almost Bulletproof leading the battle party. Good for morale, ya know? XD
Aria - More luck than skill. Ya girl is just stupid foolish lucky LMFAO but she’s unrivalled when it comes to stealth/sneaking around so she’s got that going for her too! :)
16) From our OC’s point of view, SoR -> KotET wasn’t a fun experience, did they develop any fears as a result?
Vano - Force ghosts. And if Lana keeps trying to poke needles into her she’s gonna develop a needle phobia I swear to fucking god LMAO
Saarai - I wouldn’t say she developed any new particular fears but a running theme for her is that she worries she’ll be a bad leader/make the wrong call and someone (else) will die for it. The Vette/Torian thing was Rai’s worst nightmare qAq, also Vaylin’s death was pretty hard on her. She could relate to Vaylin and really wanted to help her (even tho Vaylin...did not want to be helped) and that weighed on Rai for a long, long time D:
Aria - Vano dying (again).
17) AU time! If your Commander wasn’t Commander, which of your other OCs would have likely taken their place?
Honestly I think it would be a hilarious disaster if Vano and Aria switched places and Valkorion ended up in Aria’s head. I think Valk would give up and leave bc he would not be able to do anything that phased Aria XD
Otherwise on a more serious note, Ni’kasi being the sole commander would also be pretty cool! And the ending would’ve worked out pretty different cause I don’t think Kas would’ve given up on taking the original Sith Empire back quite so easily so she prolly would’ve given Acina the boot in the end (not via killing her, I don’t think, but she would’ve produced centuries worth of geaneology and/or her mother’s ghost to basically tell Acina to hit the bricks cause that throne is hers so cough it up bitch 🤣)
So we prolly would’ve ended up with the Alliance taking over the Empire’s territories except Kas wouldn’t let the Republic bait her into Useless Turf Wars either, she’s also tired of that crap, so it’d prolly be just Malgus that they’d have to worry about. Maybe one day I’ll write a short AU thing about it idk. its not priority rn hahaha
18) Who’s someone your Commander hopes they never have to deal with again?
Arcann and Senya. All the way lmao Those two are not in any of the Commanders’ good books after what happened
Saarai is lowkey getting to that point with Acina now too tho. If she doesn’t stop trying to drag the Alliance into the petty ImpPub squabbling Rai is gonna throw hands LOL
19) Does your Commander hold on to/still use any titles they earned before KotET?
Vano & Aria both kept their Darth names and/or title(s)! Vano is Commander Wrath, Aria still goes by her Darth name (Canis) and is Commander Canis, though many in the Alliance have taken to calling her the Wrath’s Shadow as well because she’s usually stuck to her wife like glue to make sure nobody else tries to murder Vano again LMAO
Saarai - technically she does still have her Darth title. Just unlike Aria and Vano she hates using it. She doesn’t want anyone to feel she has more power over them which is typically associated with a Darth name, and would prefer everyone just called her “Saarai” <3
20) Share something, anything at all, you want about your Commander that you’ve not really gotten the chance to share before but really want to.
Rai may be a Reluctant Leader but at this point she’s so deep into it (and so fond of like 98% of the people in the Alliance) that even if she did get the chance to step down and leave I don’t think she would. She secretly is really glad to be able to protect and help people that have nowhere else to go :’)
Rai’s Darth name is/was Kemodu, which is a play on “Komodo” as in Komodo dragon, because the House Ahaszaai emblem is Chirikyât in his Hssiss forms and another “name” for Hssiss in canon is “Dark Side Dragon”. I lowkey wish Rai would want to use her Darth name bc its my favourite out of everyone’s but she hates using it so I don’t get to hahaha
Oddly enough Vano is probably like, the least mentally stable of the three now. What with the whole Valkorion thing. I’m not saying she’s gonna go full Vaylin but she’s defo not doing ok someone please give this woman a hug- XD
Rai is the Eternal Empress but Bioware can fuckin fight me about it being a solely-DS! title/thing. She’s a LS! Eternal Empress and I will not change that /srs
At one point Rai did offer the Eternal Throne/the Fleet to Aria instead as Rai really didn’t want to be in charge of that but in a shocking moment of responsibility Aria turned it down - she was worried that she’d make an errant spite thought about how much she hated the Jedi and end up nuking a planet by accident so she opted not to have that kinda power in her hands LOL
Aria’s Darth name (Canis) is a reference to her father’s Darth name (Noctis), who was killed by Baras shortly before the final confrontation with Vano/the SW in the DC Chamber. She was very fond of her father and wanted to have a Darth name to remember him by, and because his Tuk’ata ended up deciding She Was Pack Now she went with Canis :3

Incorrect Quotes Game
I was tagged by @a-muirehen for this a while back, thank you & sorry (profusely) that this is so late sjkgsgjgd Ziri (Smuggler): I thought I told you to stop reading my emails. Merak (Other Smuggler + Ziri’s adopted dad): Well, I thought I told you to stop keeping secrets! 
---
Aria (DS! Jedi Consular): We have fun, don’t we, Ni’kasi? Ni’kasi (Sith Inquisitor): I have never been more stressed out in my entire life.
--- this one is hilariously accurate
Vano (Sith Warrior): I'm not doing to well. Saarai(Outlander): What's wrong? Vano: I have this headache that comes and goes. *Aria enters the room* Vano: There it is again.
Merak (Smuggler): Do you ever think? Because I do not.
--
Kas has it out for Merak, apparently XD
Ziri (Smuggler): The ritual. To preform it requires a sacrifice. Ni'kasi (Sith Inquisitor): Sacrifice? I nominate Merak. Merak (Alt Smuggler): Wait, what? Ni'kasi: Because you're little, you'll fit on a barbecue. Merak: I'm 5'9, it's like average height in most of the world! Ziri: Its not that kind of of sacrifice guys!
--
this also feels like something Kas would say LMAO
Ni'kasi (Sith Inquisitor): I scare people a lot because I walk very softly and they don't hear me enter rooms. So when they turn around, I'm just kind of there and their fear fuels me.
and you know what. She can be allowed this as well /jk
Ni'kasi: Remain CALM! *slaps Saarai  multiple times*
Aria: Why do you not believe that ghosts are real? Saarai : Never seen one. Aria: Okay, I mean, there’s a lot of things that you can’t see that are real. Saarai : What can’t I see? Aria: You can’t see gravity. That’s real. Saarai : Yeah, I can drop an apple. Aria: Fuck.

If one of your OCs came to life, asked you out on a date, or get to spend the whole week with you, which OC will make you say 'Yes' ? What activities will you do with them in that time?
Oooh! Thank you for the ask, nonny! This one took a while because I really had to think about it for a while. Honestly of all my SWTOR OC's, I reckon the ones who both would ask me out on a date and that I'd say 'yes' to, it'd be Rai and Va. Aria is...very not my type and I am probably not hers either hahaha Rai - definitely a "stay at home and cuddle under a blanket while we binge watch movies" date. Rai gives nice cuddles and honestly, it'd be great! She's perfect for if you just need a hug and someone to be there for you without expecting anything more out of it. Just some nice physical intimacy without it needing to go any further than that if you don't want to (perfect for my ace butt lol) Va - Va likes calligraphy, and while I haven't tried that yet, I can def see her idea of a nice fun "going out" date being some sort of arts and crafts activity so ofc I'd be down for that! :D

I know it is the end of the spooky season but would any of your OCs enjoy dressing up for Halloween and what in your mind would their costumes be?
I am almost too late to post this in time for "spooky season" woops, been a busy week/day, you know the drill! Thank you so much for this ask Raven, it made me grin and start giggling like a little kid as I started thinking about all of this hehe. Alas, I don't have enough juice to do any doodles to go with it so I'll just be using descriptions and a handful of screenshots where I have specifc ones in mind to hopefully illustrate :3
Off the top of my head, the Ahaszaai twins are both absolutely dressing up for Halloween!
Kas would go all out, I'm talking a proper fancy, handmade costume. She'd probably go for one of the classics like a demoness, and would 100% "over"do it compared to everyone else. Ya girl done made her nails up all fancy with red rhinestones and they look hella ✨aesthetic✨ but incredibly impractical for actually you know....holding things. Ex: (link to the artists Insta by clicking on the picture, I don't claim to have done these I'm not that coordinated or talented with nail art LMAO)
Tumblr media
(I have these saved specifically as "Kas way overdoing something for Aesthetic and/or Intimidation factor and I feel like they'd go really well with an OTT Demoness costume for Halloween ngl - she's probably made horns to match and everything. Andronikos has been roped into a couple's costume as a devil or Hades or something, to sell the look and he'll do it without complaining because holy shit does his wife look hot *wink wink* haha)
Saarai would dress up in one of those classic tacky vampire costumes - but she owns it so well that she somehow pulls it off? Reason for the vampire costume being that when she and Koth were still sort of in the "awkward trying to be nice to eachother" phase, he once asked her, with all seriousness "so you don't drink people's blood?" and Rai has NEVER let him live it down since. She's a tacky ass vampire every Halloween from then on, Koth isn't sure whether to laugh or cry anymore and Lana goes to bed early every Halloween to avoid getting involved in whatever ridiculous inside-joke-annoying-prank thing her partners clearly have going on. She does NOT want to know LOL Rai has also 100% gathered up every kid on the Oddessen base and is 100% chaperoning them while they go trick or treating <3
Aria would dress up too, not with the express purpose of scaring people OR going trick or treating but just because she'll use any excuse to show off and be extra as hell. She's got a whole tuk'ata-themed armour set (which tbh she probably wears sometimes even when it's NOT halloween....) and because Chwûq and Taral tend to follow her around and are almost as tall at the shoulder as Ari is at the waist they end up being a pretty convincing Tuk'ata-Cerberus. Vano doesn't dress up but she does tag along to try and mitigate some of the frights that unsuspecting passersby would get in seeing three tuk'ata heads appear out of nowhere XD

Vette: (to Aria) I dare you-
Vano (Sith Warrior/Commander), cutting in: Ah, Aria’s not allowed to accept dares anymore, Vette.
Vette, frowning: Why not?
Aria (DS! Jedi Consular), pouting: I have “no regard for my own or others personal safety”, apparently.

(WIP ask game) "You're in my veins"??? 👀
Oho, this oneee 👀I hope you were expecting angst (tm) with this one because ✨that's what y'all are gettinggg~✨
So this is the Ariano Break-Up Fic (tm) It's actually pretty much done but is stuck in WIP Hell because at this point in time I'm not 100% sure whether it's gonna end up being (part of) a chapter of Creeping Shadows or whether it'll be a standalone oneshot that'll fill in the blanks between some chapters as it were, we'll have to see once I get further in CS and we get towards that area of the timeline. It's defo one of the older WIPs on the list?? but I still like it a lot actually. There's smut in this one (but not in the snippet ofc because this is Tungl)
Basically "the girls are very bad at make-up s3x" because that's what it was initially supposed to be when I started it, but Aria is a Horrible Little Being and couldn't say the L word yet so we ended up with...this (tm) instead. I gave up being indignant about it in the end and just rolled with it 🤷🤣 If you like Pain, read on for a snippet >:))
                             -----------------------------------------------------------
“Please.” there was a note of desperation to the Mirialan's voice as she spoke, that made Aria's chest ache with guilt. “I need to know.”
Aria knew the words she was looking for, she had said them once before...many years ago, her brain addled by too many drinks. She had told herself every day since, despite spending her most peaceful nights curled up in Vano’s bed with her arms wrapped tightly around her, that she hadn't meant it. Now she wasn't so sure. Had that been a lie she had told herself for this long?
“I….missed you.” Aria tried, but couldn't force the words out. She settled for the next closest thing instead and hoped it would be enough, burrowing herself closer to the Marauder’s body as she slipped one arm around her back to pull her in closer. “Couldn't sleep without you.” Aria threw a glance upwards to the Mirialan's face, finding her forehead crinkled gently in thought. When she found the words, Vano’s voice was quiet as she murmured:
“....And you still ran away from me.” the statement was so sharp with pain, so accusatory, that it lanced like a saber blade through Aria’s heart.
She couldn't avoid the answer this time. The Jedi Shadow steeled herself, turning her head to bury her face against the crook of her bed partner's neck. Taking in a deep breath of her scent, she left a gentle kiss there before flashing a sad and, finally, honest smile.
“I was afraid and I panicked, ok?” Aria huffed, more defensive than she had perhaps intended. “I saw an opportunity to get clear of all of it and I took it. Couldn’t risk going back for you.”
She felt Vano’s throat quiver under her cheek as she swallowed stiffly and didn't dare raise her eyes up to look at her.
“You didn't think to use this...connection and, and tell me you were OKAY?!” Vano hissed softly, her voice carrying an icy edge as she tried to disguise the sharp spike of anguish in her emotions. In recent years, Aria had been careful to keep a wall up in her mind to block out the bond between them, but in the throes of their intimacy it was far easier to let her guard slip and allow some of the Marauder’s emotions to shine through. “You let me think you were dead for five years! For the record, that's not just cruel, it's karkin’ selfish!”

shows up to Pride Month 20 mins days late with Starbucks because I’m the worst at time management
happy pride everyone, from the Subterfugeverse crew (and Elven!) Vano is bi, and Aria is a demiromantic pansexual. Tfw ur wife is a whole ass foot taller than you so you have to climb her like a tree to kiss her but it’s ok ^^
Please bear with me if my colouring style changes a bit while I get used to the new brushes in Clip Studio, loving it so far tho! :D
Vano’s dumb pun had to go on her sleeve bc by the time I realised the bandana was blocking most of the front of her shirt it was too far into the lineart to be bothered to go back and change it :P
Alas, I do not have the time to finish the other drawings I wanted to do before I leave this weekend (in literally a couple hrs lol) so I will save those for next year! :’D
DO NOT repost my art (*unless it was a gift/commission for you, in which case you MAY repost with credit), reblogs ALWAYS appreciated <3

I was tagged for WIP whenever by @sleepswithvillains and @a-muirehen a couple weeks back, sorry it’s so late but I’ve been so unproductive it’s taken me this long to have a WIP to show you guys XDD
I’ll tag uhhh @palepinkycat, @mimabeann , @thedinalixlegacy and anyone else who has a WIP (art or writing, whatever!) that they want to share! Yes, I promise I mean you!
so, since I am the world’s slowest sketcher ever and this is tenfold since I’m learning a new UI (really liking Clip Studio so far, tho! Clipping masks, my beloved, I have missed you uwu) have a WIP of a smooch for pride :’3
I’m hoping this won’t be the only one I do, but it does depend how quickly I get through things so we’ll seee~ XD

Aria (DS! Jedi Consular), over the holo: The other day, one of the Masters asked me if I was actually a Sith.
Vano (LS! Sith Warrior): Oh, Force. What happened, what did you say?
Aria: I said “no”, of course.
Aria: You know, like a liar.

I was tagged by @raven-of-domain-kwaad​ (thanks Raven! :D) to make some OCs with this wonderful picrew
I shall tag @mercurypilgrim , @elaphaemourra , @walk-ng-d-saster , @gabelikesart and anyone else who’d like to join in! Yes, if you’re reading this and thinking “but me...?”,  I promise I mean you! :’D
Modern!AUs are really not my thing (I like magic, fantasy and/or sci-fi shenanigans and “unordinary” things, sue me :P) but since this was a very “modern”ish picrew, I decided to roll with it and dip my toe in even if I’ll never write a modern-based fic about it.
So...Modern!AU Ariano, anyone? :D Aria just screams “goth theater kid” to me, for sure LOL And I feel like Vano would either be studying something music-based (or at least be the lead singer of a band in her spare time), or like...creative writing or something (since she actually has calligraphy as a main hobby in Subterfugeverse-canon anyways) o3o
They’d be a very “unlikely couple” and the talk of the campus, I’m sure 🤣
