The memory of black wings

I’ve noticed that a lot of Star Wars blogs use current Earth slang and curses such as “Fuck” and “bitch” which do not tend exist in the Star Wars universe. With this in mind, I decided to make a handy resource of some of the curses and slang that are available. For a full list, click HERE

It’s okay to enjoy “problematic” fiction.

It’s okay to draw fanart and write fanfiction that appeals to you, and you alone.

You’re allowed to ship whatever you want. Let me repeat this for emphasis: YOU ARE ALLOWED TO SHIP WHATEVER YOU WANT PERIOD.

Your own enjoyment and entertainment are valid  reasons to write, draw, or consume something. 

If this enjoyment takes the form of sexual gratification, that’s also a valid reason to writer, draw, or consume something.

Fiction does not have to be morally pure. Fiction allows us to explore things that we wouldn’t want to experience in real life, things like violence, sexual violence, drug abuse, sexual taboos, or kinks: all kinds of weird or disturbingt things, and that’s okay.

No, the narrative does not have to condemn these things explicitly.

You don’t owe other fans an explanation or apology for the things you enjoy in fiction 

If someone asks you to reveal personal information, it’s okay to tell them to fuck off. 

There’s no such thing as a fandom police. Whoever claims to have the authority to tell you what is or isn’t acceptable for you to enjoy, is just arrogating that right. Their strategy only works if you let them have this power, so don’t. 

It’s up to each person individually to create a “safe space” for themselves.

Other people’s mental health is not your responsibilty.

This post has been brought to you by some past, present and future stars. 

Ragnar Lothbrok, Jedi Master:

His young innocent bright eyed Padawan, Athelstan:

Who then basically goes down the path of Anakin Skywalker and becomes a Sith Lord:

There’s lots of pain and betrayal and doubts and confusion and yes.

Gryffindor is laughing so loudly that strangers stare at you. It’s playing truth or dare at three in the morning. It’s running around like crazy people with your lover. It’s catching fireflies on a warm summer night. It’s complimenting a stranger’s crazy hair color and feeling so good when they smile. Gryffindor is hurling toilet paper over someone’s yard then laughing so hard it hurts. It’s standing up to a childhood bully. It’s unhealthy amounts of candy and fiery red sunsets. Gryffindor is being an adrenaline junkie and trying to do what’s right and getting back up after being knocked down .

Ravenclaw is 3am conversations about the meaning of life. It’s having a small close knit circle of friends who would die for each other. It’s longing to touch your lover’s soul. It’s googling pictures of llamas in tuxedos when you actually got online for a research paper. It’s feeling an instant bond with a stranger who’s wearing a band or tv show t-shirt. It’s being quirky and not caring. Ravenclaw is drinking coffee at 11pm. It’s effortlessly acing classes that you’re interested in. It’s dusty sheet music and a starry night sky. Ravenclaw is being obsessed with a certain book or show and pouring your soul into your work and expressing yourself creatively.
