The Illustrated Book of Manners: A Manual of Good Behavior and Polite Accomplishments, 1866
No one asked for this, but...
Deep and guttural, it comes from the back of his throat and works it's way up. His entire chest rumbles, and his body tenses, his teeth bared at the one who angered him or challenged. Before stalking forward.
Like a cat or a snake, wide mouthed and incisors flashing. His torso leans forward, while his feet stay planted. He'll smile after, and his quary gains the faint sense that if he had the chance, he would go for the neck.
Oh, sing sweet nightngale
Something I find really amusing about the reaction to the Ahsoka trailer is the amount of people saying “Omg my favorite war criminal is back!!!” And the war criminal in question is Chopper and not Thrawn
Thrawn appreciation post.
Sometimes Reddit comments are great writing inspiration:
Reylo in TFA was subtle. You had to be looking for it to see it. If you were looking for something else (Finnrey, Rey Skywalker, etc) it was easy to miss.
Reylo in TLJ is overt. That whole sequence of interactions was presented to make the casual audience want it (and they do). There was no kiss, no “I love you”, but the subtext was impossible to miss (unless you’re as good at denial as Rey is).
They are not going to tease it that hard and then drop it in the next movie. The intent was to make audiences want Reylo to happen. It would be idiotic not to deliver.
There is wisdom in keeping an open mind and not investing so much in one possibility that we’re crushed if it doesn’t happen (advice that certain Rey parentage theorists should have heeded), but when I look at this from a story-teller’s perspective, knowing that Star Wars is about hope, there is only one way to go from here, especially when taking into consideration the plots of the previous two trilogies and who the legacy character is.
Ben Solo will live, and he and Rey will stand together.
