SWTOR + text posts - part 7

the fact that if you play as smuggler!outlander, the catalyst for the ultimate death of eternal emperor valkorion was skavak stealing your ship

the fact that the smuggler can flirt with valkorion

the fact that the smuggler can tell valkorion that he has a small dick and it pisses him off so much that he destroys a planet

the consular putting on a british accent when pretending to be a sith

the inquisitor putting on a… non-british accent when pretending to be from the republic

the inquisitor’s story as a whole having next to nothing to do with the war and just being the inquisitor making one bad decision after another to keep them alive in the immediate future

lana beniko writes poetry

lana beniko also thinks it’s funny to act menacing towards jedi just for the lolz when theyre on the same team

quinn making a huge deal out of his betrayal, then getting defeated immediately and asking the sith warrior not to tell the rest of the crew about what happened

lana being the big bad sith lord who makes sure that theron is taking breaks and tells him not to overwork himself

zenith’s first solution to every obstacle being to do something morally reprehensible, delivered completely deadpan to a horrified jedi consular

in echoes of oblivion, the outlander annoying scourge by asking why his ship is so big

ls!jaesa trying to pretend to be dark sided to pierce and his response being ‘yeah, you’re vicious’ in a tone that shows he does not, in fact, think that she is vicious

satele keeping a picture of theron as a teenager in a locket

the ghost of darth marr apparently telling satele to offer the outlander a meal when they come to her campsite

the ghost of darth marr hanging around with satele for 5 years, in general

lana being one of the most logical people in the alliance, and the confusion this causes in republic-aligned characters

gault beating lana at cards

the f!consular outlander giggling when she tries to scare theron on iokath

the fact that you can flirt with theron’s father in front of him

rumours of arcann reuniting orphans on nar shaddaa and also operating a pleasure barge on hutta

valkorion’s entire family getting to beat him up

ashara defining her own beliefs and being okay with the fact that she doesnt fit in with ‘jedi’ or ‘sith’

the outlander coming back just at the right time to ruin all of the shroud’s plans, and being completely unaware of the fact that theyve angered them

everything about kira

theron and lana’s entire friendship

that one sidequest where the fem!trooper and a bunch of other female soldiers have a ladies’ night out and get wasted

“a blind, deaf, comatose lobotomy patient could fEeL mY aNgER”

SENYA AND THE OUTLANDER APOLOGIZING TO VAYLIN

tharan bitching about how theron spells his name “the stupid way”

akaavi and mako teaming up, they’re lesbians harold

the fact that doc and kaliyo canonically boned at one point

vette explicitly referring to the fem!warrior as her sister

the glitch in echoes of oblivion where you’d get a romance letter from theron if you didn’t romance him, and didn’t get one if you did

TAU IDAIR AND MAJOR ANRI

blizz and t7′s entire existence 

just the way lana trolls republic-aligned NPCs in general

the outlander being 43054% DONE with valkorion at any given moment

That poor idiot in Vowrawn’s undercover “Republic bunker” desperately trying to fake a Republic accent and failing horribly at it and how done the SW sounds (esp the fem!SW voice) when they point it out

(Edit: I have been informed it is, in fact, Ziost, thank you @outcastcommander ! :D) there’s a Lana flirt where you’re talking to her via a holocomm and the creature you thought was dead is not in fact dead and is getting up & about to obliterate you while you’re distracted w/ flirting, as you brag about how badass you are that you killed it and Lana just chuckles and says “you may want to look behind you” and the utter look of “oh, shit” on the PC’s face as the realization sets in

like 90% of the SW’s lines, including: “look behind you, Sith, you’re looking at two squads of the Republic’s finest” “you’re about to see what two squads of the Republic’s deadest looks like”

Sith Inquisitor, offended at being called “cute” : “I am not CUTE, I’m deadly!! >: (”

Roundhouse-kicking Vemrin in the face in the SW prologue

Conversely, the JK just socking Bengel Morr in the nose to literally beat sense into him.

Baras desperately trying to get the rest of the Dark Council to help him deal with the Warrior, and every single one of them, even Ravage, dunking on him and saying that if he’s really as powerful as he claims he should be able to damn well do it himself

that little romance scene with Andronikos and the fem!Inquisitor where he takes her out for a drink and they’re sitting in a booth and he puts his arm around her shoulders, just aaaaaaaaaa <3

Also Andronikos “I’m not romantic or attached or anything” Revel, being so pissed off that Arcann and Vaylin “killed” Outlander!Inquisitor that he spends the 5 years she’s trapped in carbonite making their lives absolute hell as revenge & how shocked he is to find out that his girl is still alive and in control of the Eternal Alliance

The blatantly obvious bi/pan enemies-to-lovers tension between Thana Vesh and a fem!Warrior/Inquisitor. Let them flirt, Bioware, you cowards.

Cytharat’s entire existence. Cytharat companion when, Bioware???

When angry Baras calls up your ship comm in Ch 3 and a sassy SW can be like “sorry who’re you again?” and everyone on the crew laughs at him (except Quinn, dangit Quinn it was funny okay XD)

Quinn trying so hard to look for the Outlander!Warrior, whether romanced or not, that Lorman has to throw his ass in jail to stop him from actually pulling it off and jeapordising his entire plan to gain control of the Empire

Punching Saresh. It will never not be satisfying.

The Mandalorian husband & wife from the Blood Hunt flashpoint. I care them.

Talos and Inquisitor’s buddy relationship/bromance. I just love him okay he deserves everything

Vette calling Senya a stool pigeon and the face she makes in response

Spending all that time crafting a “weapon powerful enough to defeat Arcann” but then you basically SMASH HIS FACE IN with a random fucking shield on the floor

How grateful the Republic soldiers on Oricon are that you help save/shield them from the Dread Masters. The fact that one sends you a mail implying he’s gonna defect because of what you did and he hopes you’ll fight together again one day.

that scene in kotfe where vette pranks gault and the outlander, jumps out of the missile, yells “ka-boom!” and starts laughing hysterically.

earlier in the same chapter, the part where gault and the outlander imitate wookiees to scare that one dude out of hiding

troopers FINALLY getting to punish general garza for her bs in shadow of revan

that one sith jedi knights encounter on tatooine. i can’t even remember his name but i do recall being fascinated by how complex he and his motives were

that botched TPM reference in jedi under siege: “a communication disruption like this could only mean one thing” “that you haven’t been paying your bills?”

WHEN YOU REUNITE WITH A COMPANION AND “[X] MISSED YOU” POPS UP ON THE SCREEN

how vette stands up to abusive sith warriors in kotfe and tells them to their face that she’s not afraid of them anymore, and that she won’t put up with their abuse

the romanced m!bounty hunter’s opening scene in shadow of revan, where mako straight-up tells him that they’ve been too “busy” boning for her to actually do her job, and torian cracking up at this in the background

the sheer catharsis of the jedi knight finally killing valkorion in echoes of oblivion

that scene in onslaught where the outlander starts slowly making out with theron or lana in front of lana or theron, and the third wheel coughing awkwardly at them

how bizarre it feels to play as a light sith, because you have the only brain cell in the empire and republic combined apparently

the way elara chews out troopers who side with the empire in war for iokath. i know she gets a lot of hate for this, but i actually love how she stands by her (mostly reasonable) principles no matter what

the opening scene for imp side jedi under siege where lana tells the outlander not to take theron with them, and theron asks if this is about his terrible new haircut.

the way echoes of oblivion doesn’t gloss over arcann’s traumas, showing how valkorion’s return impacts his emotional wellbeing

just the fact that arcann is almost never seen without senya from kotet-onwards. a true momma’s boy
