Commission for @cinderedrose of his Revan being their troublesome self. Love seeing a scout causing some chaos :3

Hot take: no one from Ebon Hawk's crew helps deal with gizka because they know how much Revan likes them and try not to reveal their knowledge.

I don't believe anyone else in the crew would turn down a chance to screw with Revan right back.

A few weeks ago I tried explaining to my non tumblr friends what blorbo/eeby deeby/glup shitto/scrunglo/plinko was and it almost gave all of us an aneurysm

[torilaa]

Well kotor 2 had the companions interact WAY more than in kotor to begin with (like kotor only had those side convos where Bastila's like "Mission the Force shouldn't be used like that harrumph" [proceeds to trip Mission with the Force]). Kotor 2's companion interactions are less vague compared to kotor. Because of that, headcanons for the kotor crew's interactions make more sense since you kind of have to imagine how they would interact throughout the journey. Some may see it the way you see it where they kinda tolerate each other to get the job done the whole time while some can see most or some of them getting along.

For me, I like imagining them all getting along better as they go through their individual quests. As a story it makes sense. Like maybe Canderous no longer fights with Carth about the war after Jagi, Juhani no longer snaps at Canderous cause she learned to forgive, Carth doesn't treat Mission ultra protective/pedantically after finding his son...etc, they all grow as characters so their interactions with each other would surely show that? But unfortunately, there is a bit of Main Character Syndrome(TM) in kotor wherein the companions really only interact with you. There are barely any scenes of them interacting with each other after their important character moments.

So, in a way I think you're right but for a different reason. Kotor 2 had better written character interactions and conflict while kotor's interactions were barely written and vague and (most) people like to think positively about characters they like so they fill in the blanks. If some want to see them more as a "found family" in the end, I won't judge even though the game reeeally doesn't show that develop technically.

I had made a post about this topic back in 2019, but I still very much stand by my likely unpopular opinion that I do not believe the KotOR 1 Ebon Hawk crew gets along much better than the KotOR 2 one, especially not enough to be a "found family" (frankly, I am starting to get sick of this term in fandom contexts).

The only reason the KotOR 1 Ebon Hawk crew looks like they get along better than the KotOR 2 crew is that the KotOR 1 crew has a clearer common goal to stick together, which is stopping Malak, since Malak operates more openly than the Sith Triumvirate.

#kotor 1 and 2 thoughts #actually I'm interested in other people's kotor crews and their interactions (even if I wouldn't see that as my “canon”) #the interactions would be different since everyone's revan is different #dark side revan would probably manipulate them all and cause chaos ;)

Okay new headcanon I guess? I like the idea that the tribe of the One got the "feasting to get stronger" thing from the power of the Star Forge and thanks to telephone it got distorted. The Forge is "feasting" in a way on the Force so they were kinda right!

So, I've been reviewing a lot of Rakatan lore and the One's dialogue for this next chapter I'm writing...

uh I completely forgot the One "feasted on his enemies." I think. literally. My mind must have blanked that out when I played last (or I was rushing to the end as usual)!

Oh and I made this meme while sleep deprived last night after going through the lore and refreshing myself

It says a lot that the Rakatan just believed what Revan said he'd promised to do on a whim. Gaining trust and just bulldozing it down is his schtick I guess :')

This is a monumental failing by the Avatar live-action show runners.

Your favourite characters can (and should) be flawed. A massive part of Sokka’s character arc in season 1 is specifically on his sexism and how he faces it.

If you tone that part down, you’re toning down the role of the Kyoshi warriors who hand his arse to him because he thinks he can easily beat them.
