spent spooky season rewatching Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (2018) and experiencing Interview with the Vampire (2022) for the first time. I love it when shows unapologetically lean into their aesthetic.

intrigued to see where this is going and what genres they'll be bringing in. personally I'd love to see more crime noir too!
Star Wars is starting a “genre fiction initiative”. First up is a YA romance called Eyes Like Stars by Ashley Poston

any day a new Tessa Gratton book releases is a good day! I generally struggle to read prequels of deceased characters (just hurts me as a hypersensitive person too much and unfortunately bittersweetness also manifests physically for me) but what is The High Republic if not pushing my boundaries 🙂‍↕️

just gonna put this out here in futile attempts of delusion, but if anyone deserves another novel post-The High Republic's main story, let it be Avar and Elzar. It could have interludes of the Firebrands flashbacks we've been asking for since this initiative kicked off. pretty please 🥺

here we go. it's so hard to let go of something you've treasured for half a decade. to know this might be the end or perhaps a new beginning for characters you've grown alongside, that you've loved and lost, that have shaped your view of the gffa and the real world itself. for light and life 🌟

it's been three years since I got to officially translate one of Justina's lovely High Republic short stories. wild! 🥹

Happy release day to Trials of the Jedi!!!

I loved doing fan art throughout the Phase 1 and 2 releases and although I spent most of Phase 3 doing official art, I couldn’t let it come to an end without doing one last illustration.

been feeling a weird mix of anxiety, nostalgia, hope and dread over The High Republic's final book release tomorrow. This story, these characters have given so many of us shelter, shaped us, held us. What a terrible and beautiful feeling to experience the power a story can hold over your heart 🌟

does this suffice to call my last straw of hope to get stellan back a success? I think I won here

Chuck Norris and I once passed through the same door in opposing directions. gave a nod of acknowledgement and that was that
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

crying about the high republic ending. crying about it living on. crying about stellan not making it to the ending. crying about not knowing what happens to my fictional friends yet. crying about soon knowing and never being able to not know again. just lots of crying over here

nearly finished with Tears of the Nameless and about to dive into Into the Light this weekend so I can devour Trials as soon as it releases. absolute emotional whiplash over here. we're so back (I'm in the trenches)
June 6, 2025 at 7:02 PM
once again kindly asking to get a final episode of the high republic show celebrating the ending of the initiative, pretty please? 🥺

it only took them two months but look we've finally got consistent time tables and pit stop data #f1 #italygp

it's been a month since Japan so here's my belated SWCJ haul/swag collection 🥹 thank you to everyone who was so kind to hand me something although I wasn't in cosplay (rep'ing THR in shirts though), to Lia for grabbing a comic for me, and to all fans & friends for the many wholesome conversations💛

can't distinguish whether I'm crying about Andor or the real world anymore, which is both a testament to this show and a reminder of how tragic and truly terrifying our reality and those who try to twist it are.

I know it's been out for a while but man The Expanse is criminally underrated

it is 2025. we really do not need to kill/bury our gays anymore, on-screen or off-screen. realistic depiction or not, the world we live in does not need this message to be reinforced.

REAL experience. also the struggle between "I can still buy this fun thing later" and "if I don't do it now will I ever remember or find it again"
buying things in japan is all fun and games until you have to pack your suitcase

thanks everyone for an amazing first day at SWCJ!! not many new publishing announcements which was a bummer but the High Republic fans in the audience were LOUD and the meet-up was so lovely. and I'm highly jealous of everyone who got to see Ryan Gosling live. See you all tomorrow ✨️
