#mactans

he thanks you for ur blessings and compliments! now he must nap

I’m going to do a jumbled, clustered mash of nonsense because I don’t know what I’m doing B^)

♡: who is the bigger romantic openly? secretly?

Openly? Fliis. Big time…she wants to shower her love in affection. Arranging date night, stopping on any and every planet for flower seeds to make Atrax grow custom boquets, flying Mactans out to see nebulae and stars and gushing about how they’re almost as beautiful as Mactans is. Hopeless romantic. Sweetest baby.

The secret romantic of everyone? It’s actually…Malgus. This boy could draw Eleena’s face from memory in his war journal? That is SCREAMING pining secret romantic. He may be a little…dense…but I’d imagine he’s got quite the portfolio of secret works.

💙: who is more protective?

Mactans is the most protective of everyone. If anyone so much as looks at Fliis nastyways and Mactans hears about it? Done. Fliis can 10,000% handle herself, but is she about to tell that to the 2.1m tall Twi’lek with a Trandoshan in a headlock? Nah.

💚: who tends to get sick more often? who is better at taking care of the other?

Bri’ataa gets sick the most. They are less than kind on their liver, and other various organs. Coupled with world-hopping the most and being exposed to more pathogens than anyone else in the crew? Not that you can get them to admit they’re sick…

Which is fortunate because Atrax has a deep knowledge of natural remedies and gardening. He know just when to offer the immune supporting teas, grown in house, and is the only being in the friggin universe that can get Bri’ to take actual care of themselves.

“Why are you not as gentle with yourself as you are with me.”

It was a question and a demand. Mactans had a way of doing that. Fliis opened her mouth, but she couldn’t form any words. Mactans tilted her head to the side, studying her. The scrutiny would be insufferable from any other being, but Fliis could feel genuine concern in the question. 

Mactans had a face made of edges and hard lines. Serious, severe lips that only smiled to her. A sharp nose and cheekbones that could flay. Even her eyes were sharp, unnaturally yellow and piercing. Tonight, though, they seemed diffuse: the warm glow of a gentle sun. 

“I hear the things you say when you think I’m asleep. The things you think are lost into the night. If any other being said them to you I’d rip their heart out.

We’re gonna go with Mactans on this one!

What makes them feel guilty?

She holds a tremendous amount of guilt about her sister for reasons yet to be revealed. Because of that she feels the need to protect everyone she cares about against the galaxy, and her way to get over that was to stop caring about anyone but herself. That didn’t work out very well after meeting a certain smuggler wannabe (͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖)

Are they more analytical or more emotional in their decision-making?

She thinks she’s analytical, but is still very volatile emotionally. Add on top of that, she’ s a holochron-taught natural Dark Side user…not only is she an emotional decision maker, but she makes terrible decisions! Fun!

Would you say that they have a superiority-complex? Inferiority-complex? Neither?

Superiority. For sure. She’s lived through a very hard life thusfar, and harbors a lot of anger over it. Where Fliis is very understanding and gentle, Mactans has a “don’t get over it, get even” attitude, and views anything less with contempt and as weakness. 

Atrax: caf with cream and sugar, water, or light beers.

Mactans: STRONG. BLACK. CAF. Not a fan of alcohol. Water to not die but mostly caf.

Fliis: Space frappes. Rainbow colors with sprinkles. Also a fan of teas. Water is boring.

Atrax: No. He custom makes basically everything ever. Not a fan of crowds, strangers, or unfamiliar places.

Mactans: Scowls the entire time. Hates shopping, but doesn't have the skills necessary to make the things she wears. (Her entire wardrobe is weaponized clothing. The whole thing. She is never...EVER without a weapon)

Fliis: Not only will she shop till she drops, it's a week/weeks long experience. Has to try on everything. Great fashion sense, and dresses up for herself even if most of her wardrobe stays at the base.
