Feeling Accomplished Today Because I Managed To Take This Picture From Harry Potter Order Of The Phoenix:

Night Owls - Paloma Salgado Diaz  , 2023.

Oil on canvas ,

So I sat down to paint last night, and for some reason decided it would be a great idea to try to draw Sabine in hologram-form, not knowing how challenging that would be. I am, however, satisfied with the result (if just because I somehow managed to draw Ezra finally!). Scene is from a piece I wrote half a year ago on ao3, Man's Second-best Friend. Go read it if you want to see a Murley's loth-cat-view on Sabine and Ezra's relationship.

So….. I SAID I wouldn’t be the one to help you with chorus lyrics. But my brain said differently during my six hours in the car yesterday. And somehow it went from chorus lyrics to a full version of the song (I blame the fact that “Leia organa” also fits perfectly in the place of “Eleanor Rigby”).

———————

“Ohhh help me obi wan Kenobi!”

“Oooh help me obi wan Kenobi!”

Leia organa

Desperate message recorded in flickering light

Hope through the night

Old Ben Kenobi

Watching the other twin beg him to do what is right

He thinks back to the fight:

Obi wan Kenobi

So long since he’d heard that name

Obi wan Kenobi

So long since that had been him……

………….

General Kenobi

Greets his opponents with charm

And a smug “hello there”

And incredible hair

General grevious

Gets out his lightsabers—

4, just to step up his game

Then bursts into flame….

Obi wan Kenobi

So long since he’d heard that name

Obi wan Kenobi

So long since that had been him…

……………………….

Master Kenobi

Looking in shock at the young boy, now his charge to train

In his dead master’s name

Haunted by phantoms

Smiles that shine like twin suns killing hopes in their heat

Pain on repeat….

Obi wan Kenobi

So long since he’d heard that name

Obi wan Kenobi

So long since that had been him

“Oohhh help me Obi wan Kenobi!”

“Oooh help me Obi wan Kenobi….”

………………………..

Padawan obi

Dreaming of glory and love while he measures his braid

How true Jedi were made

Looks out the window

Trying to leave behind dreams and look only ahead

‘Cause his dreams drip in red

Obi wan Kenobi

So long since he’d heard that name

Obi want Kenobi

So long since that had been him

Completely useless information, but I just discovered that Obi-Wan's name could be a good fit for the song Eleanor Rigby.

General Kenobi

Greets his opponents with charm

And a smug "Hello There"

And incredible hair

General Grievous

Gets out his lightsabers--

Four, just to step up his game

Then goes up in flames

Somebody please help me make a fitting chorus.

“Anakin is a normal, good kid. And how does somebody who is normal and good turn bad? What are the qualities, what is it that we all have within us that will turn us bad?” -George Lucas

What if I showed you the worst version of yourself?

Who would you be if you’d followed a different path?

The one where you'd sought power in the face of powerlessness?

Or allowed the desire to prove yourself feed your ruthlessness and cunning?

Until your vanity proclaimed that the ends justified the means?

What if greed had become your creed?

Or your sense of duty blinded you?

What if fear strangled you into complacency? Into apathy?

Or pride wielded the weapons of your self-righteousness?

What if grief and anger consumed you?

Who would you be?

Here, have a Hera I painted today!

Okay, okay, maybe The Queen's Thief crew in a SW au? Your choice on who!

HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE this was my sister's idea (ALSO I ALMOST FORGOT @aslansjedi has also written a super fun TQT in Star Wars au! Check it out here):

The Senate building was in an uproar. In times such as these, that wasn’t totally unprecedented. Usually it meant that Senator Organa or Senator Mothma had just delivered a speech that the more Empire loving representatives were losing their minds about.

This time, however, people were rioting over the results of the first vote on Sounis’s sovereignty. And also the second, which had occurred after the king, here to attend the vote, had had the doors barricaded. The second vote had gone in his favor—but the audacity of him commanding the Senate into voting his way wasn’t what was causing the chaos.

In the middle of all of this, Attolis Eugenides—husband of the queen of the planet Attolia, Queen’s Thief of Eddis (some said former. Others were far wiser), strolled through the halls of the Senate building. He was followed by a posse of flustered attendants, all of whom were trying to talk to him at once.

“Your Majesty—”

“I don’t think it’s wise—”

“Please, Your Majesty—”

The king ignored them all, as he often did. Looking decidedly regal in his embroidered and elegant garments, he stalked up to a door guarded by two stormtroopers. One of them stepped forward as if to stop him, but was skewered by a look that made him back down hastily.

The door hissed open, revealing a small sitting room. Far from the nicest in the Senate building, it was out of the way and held a tall man, sitting in a chair, having coffee. He looked up, and the look on his scarred face was startled, but pleased. Sitting at the same table was a woman with short hair and a smile a man would die to earn, but she was not the object of the king’s attention. The king of Sounis was.

Gen cocked an eyebrow at him as the door hissed shut behind him. “You shot the Emperor?”

“You gave me the gun,” Sophos protested.
