    I was sort of inspired by how visually busy temples like that are! Very striking in comparison to the much more bare and monolithic religious structures one often sees elsewhere

    Yeah, you're on the money, definitely related to them. I've always thought it was kinda funny how little we really find out about the B'omarr and their origins, given how infamous Star Wars is for having an entire 25,000 year long backstory for every onscreen element. They're also just so...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 55: The Republic Doesn't Exist Out Here

    Chapter 55: The Republic Doesn't Exist Out Here The An'omarr Monastery was a strange complex of buildings, comprised of four round towers of irregular height, width, and spacing, shunning the symmetry that he realized both Jedi and Sith architecture strived for. The complex was surrounded by an...

    One of the things I appreciate a lot about the Star Wars films is the amount of effort put into making it so that you can ascertain what planet you're on within five seconds max when looking at it. There was a lot of creative direction going on to ensure that the audience was never lost, which...

    Chapter 54: This Line Of Thought Will Carry Us "I still think we should split up at a strategic level," Jianno grumbled, barely audible over the creaking of the ship as they neared their destination in hyperspace. "To what ends?" Nerim argued, checking over the engineering panel of the Lucky...

    To an extent! But, more to the point I think it's a lesson in what type of lesson to learn. In the end TFASY is more or less a coming of age story, and I think one of the hardest parts of growing up, in my experience at least, is not exactly learning lessons, but rather in being able to tell...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 53: Being Around Her Again

    Chapter 53: Being Around Her Again For a moment, everything was quiet, and Nerim could hear the rain beating against the roof of the ship above him, the gentle roll of thunder, and the tranquil flow of the Force. The bed beneath him was soft, clean, and pleasantly warm as the air around it was...

    Thank you! Funnily enough, this entire chapter is heavily tinted with Taoist thought, down to a somewhat oblique reference to the vinegar tasters, which is an old facet of Chinese art meant to depict the contrasts between Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism. So in a sense it's very yin-yangy lol...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 52: The Sith And The Jedi

    Chapter 52: The Sith And The Jedi Nerim's hands were uncomfortably warm against the surface of the furnace, not quite to the level of burning his skin but close enough to make his brainstem scream at him. Tetha's cooler hands were pressed against the back of his, forcing him not to pull away...

    AAAAAH! I knew I would do this sooner or later! It's a typo. Unforutnate! I'll fix it. I am currently very busy with a bunch of things so there probably won't be a new chapter uploaded for another few days. It's coming though!

    The Force Always Says Yes [Star Wars]

    Not exactly! Archive Of Our Own does not allow unnumbered chapters. So for each of the interludes and vignettes, like the End Of Arc 1 Vignette: It's A Cheap Trick But It Works, I did not number them in my personal copy of the story, nor did I number them as I uploaded them onto QQ and...

    Chapter 51: We Are Symbionts Nerim pressed down on the lever with all his might, until the geologic compressor was fully sealed. It began its first round of heating, which thankfully did not require supervision or use of the Force. He huffed and shook out his arm. "That does it, right?" "For...

    Okay okay, I admit it, I am poking fun at the darksaber. I just hate it so much! To an, admittedly, irrational extent! Aaaagh! I also took the opportunity to poke fun at the "A good story. For another time." line from TFA. I recently played Fallen Order for the first time, after avoiding it for...

    Chapter 50: One Must Study All Its Aspects After another hour or two of planning, Jianno stretched her neck and took a breath. "Alright. I've gotta stock up before anything else," she said, checking her weapons and then re-holstering them. Nerim quite clearly felt the absence of both his...
