Thank you @avisisisis and @spacefinch for reminding me that my Nausicaa AU exists, I had completely forgotten about it haha. Here's a a dump of all the doodles I was doing for it!

Nothing super substantial so far, mostly loose designs whilst I tried to figure out who would be who, but hopefully, returning to my notes now, I can try make something actually finished for it!

Story wise, so far it's less of a beat for beat retelling of Nausicaa and more of a riff on the movie (using star wars stuff too ofc). I kinda split Nausicaa's role in two and gave it to both Luke and Ezra, although narratively Luke also sorta fills the role of Asbel. If I can actually get around to writing it i'm sure it would make more sense.

Oh yeah,,, and it's a little bit skybridger too (I can't help myself).

Karyn: [about Thrawn] That man is a hurricane.

Elii: Hah, yeah, he sure is.

Karyn: Hurricanes are bad, Eli.

Hey I know I don't really go here much anymore but just a reminder, Eli Vanto is not white. And I will fight you about this.

…. He’s ‘tan’. Which is still “white”.

Eli Vanto is consistently portrayed with brown skin in all available source material. There is no canon textual description of him but he's brown in all the official art. He's not tan. He's brown.

If the wiki says he's tan then just a reminder it has also said that the clones and Bail Organa are tan in the past and all those characters are absolutely poc.

Star Wars has a persistent whitewashing problem. Don't be part of it.

@cyber-witch85 when I read the comic, I saw him and went “oh, he’s latino!” I live in a majority hispanic and latino border town, and have countless friends and relatives with the same complexion as him, and they definitely do not consider themselves white.

I’m mixed white and latino, and Eli looks like he’s a a cousin I’d see at a quinceañera on my moms side of the family, not someone from my dads side.

I’m mixed, and he’s darker than me.

It’s great to see a main character who is not white! POC have been asking for more representation for years, and it’s kinda mean to try and take that away from folks.

@cyber-witch85 What racist dumbfucks read these comics and think he's white? Grow up.

Thrawn vs Corscant Planet Daily News (Aka the Star Wars universe version of the onion)

Coruscant daily was started by a bored clone trooper and spiraled form there.

area woman heartbroken that ideal thrawn foil appears in star wars show least likely to indulge in gratuitous cameos

I'm excited for when the Ashoka Show drops for many resones but one of the funnier ones is the pure chaos. So the fans of Star Wars who only watch the live action stuff are gonna see Ezra and Thrawn then go look for a content on them... and they are going to be VERY confused.

"Who the hell is Eli Vanto and why do we ship him with Thrawn?"

"ASHOKA DIED????"

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THRAWN KNEW VADER WAS ANAKIN"

"EZRA CAN TIME TRAVEL???!?!"

Like they'll be so confused! It'll be great! Then we are gonna get more Rebels content and life will be great.

reminder that eli vanto is brown

don’t draw him pale. we’ve gone over this.

WIP

i got covid. the fatigue is indescribable. i can't even finish it hehehe but someday i will... i guess

I feel better

Summary: Eli hates gambling, especially with cards. It’s just too easy. It’s all about patterns, after all.

But some people deserve to lose.

My friend and I were talking about how Eli would be really good at cards, and this happened. Enjoy!

I love Thrawn and Eli, both individually and in ship dynamics.

I hate when I read a fanfic of both characters and they remove Eli's accent.

Like I didn't come here to read Eli talk like a regular core worlder. Give him his fucking wild space bumbkin accent you cowards.

happy birthday Eli

Anyway here’s a good boy and some smug asshole

Zeb: hey, guys, uh... so Kallus and i have kinda been dating.

Kanan: ...okay.

Sabine: hasn't that been going on for a while?

Kallus: no - well, yes, but we've been keeping it secret. now we're ... announcing it.

Hera: so what do you want from us?

Kallus: nothing?

Kanan: Good.

Zeb: we just thought you - never mind.

Eli: are we doing announcements? because i lost my favorite pen.

Thrawn: Click or cap?

Eli: Click.

Ezra: On it

Eli: Carry me. Thrawn: Can you not walk? Eli: Of course I can walk, but what's the point of having in you those biceps if not to carry me around?
