#thralias

because samakro's relationship with thalias, 'dad' to che'ri, that could've, and maybe would've been Thrawn's life

and maybe when Thrawn comes back from the Empire, he sees their family

he's happy for them, of course he is, but it is just a touch too bittersweet

because that simple happiness is what he gave up to join the Empire

(Thrawn Ascendancy: Chaos Rising spoilers)

Thrawn stayed with Ziara for two weeks at her family homestead (scandalous!) and the details of what occurred during that time are conveniently absent

And he was purposefully trapped with Thalias in a shipping container for TWO DAYS (plus they immediately had a heart-to-heart) and the details of what happened in there are also conveniently missing

And I'm expected to believe that they didn't fuck??? Not even a little bit???

Guys-

AMAZING album. Standard album is no obvious skips(I've listened to the 3am songs like 1-2 each and I can tell I like them less). Might be mood skips, but no horrible skips or emotional ones.

But for this blog(And I know NO ONE CARES about this)

Midnight Rain is Thrawn and Thalias. It hit me this morning and it's perfect and sad. She's sunshine and wants a peaceful life and only signed up for war to see him from afar and he's midnight rain and wants the pain and military gain until his town is a wasteland to him.

Snow on the Beach reminds me simultaneously of Tarkin/TK-421 and Kalluzeb. I think more Kalluzeb. Like the more I think about it, the narrator seems so Kal. Life is emotionally abusive, having to smile and fake it through normal life, so taken by his lover, comparing them to space events(Can I say Bahryn meteorite anyone?), but so unbelieving they want him back, scared to jinx it. But Zeb loves him, is all in for this weird but fucking beautiful love.

Yeah, no SOTB is Kallus.

But also weird but fucking beautiful is also a really good way to describe Tarkin-TK-421 in my headcanon. I mean stormtrooper/grand moff? Weird. But they're laughing deep into the night and it's so beautiful. And the "My flight was awful thanks for asking, I'm unglued thanks to you." Seems like something Tarkin would say to Sev after having to leave for business and then coming back and having missed him and being exhausted.

But for pure Sevastian and Wilhuff love, "You would break your back to see me break a smile" is pure Sev/TK-421 warmth and love for Tarkin in my headcanon. And Labyrinth hits just cause Tarkin opens up to Sev about his past and fears??? Also finding love after Vader destorys Tarkin past the point where he won't love like this again.

Vigilante Shit is Andor Mon Mothma and it fucking slays

And Mastermind is canon Of MSE-6 and Men. From the second they see each other's faces, they're plotting to get each other in bed. To gain, and they know what the other wants, and Tarkin is plotting for life.

I legit need to fix the slow cooker meal for tonight and I want to listen to the bonus tracks but I can't pull myself away from the standard tracks.
