Fallen Empires -- An Old Republic Era adventure (Star Wars)

Reader mode
Fun, and cute, and so delightfully awkward. I love it. 10/10

[X] You'll have Amira with you

Brenby is the cute boy you hook up with when you cross paths again and have both had time to properly fantasize, Keel is the local that I'm not interested in carrying offplanet, really. Sorry Keel! So-

This is honestly a highlight of the update to me.

Like, Nyx explains the situation through the lens of Sith philosophy, and it makes a lot of sense.

There are two diametrically opposing interpretations of the Sith Code in the EU, actually. One faction consists of control freaks, trying to always acquire more power to have control over their lives. And the other faction kinda interprets it like control is an illusion, and they should strive for more power because it's a goal in on itself.

I guess we know which faction Nyx belongs to.

You hunch awkwardly in on yourself, taking a long sip of your hot chocolate. It's cool enough, now. "But, um... wasn't she like, inspirational to you and stuff?"

"Yes," Nyx agrees, "and she will be again, once she's properly dead and no longer haunting my daughter."

"Charming," says Imperius, examining her nails. Even though they're ghost nails and they probably can't get anything underneath them, so why is that even necessary, other than to annoy you?

I live for this shit.
You told me this already, what her reaction will be, but seeing it firsthand is so worth the occasional Sith possession and whatnot.

[X] Well, at least you'll have Imperius with you

I know this will never be more than an odd friendship of two intertwined souls sharing one body, and I'm fucking here for it.
This buddy cop show can have thirty seasons, and I'll watch them all!

Also, my second pick, Brenby, is in possession of a dangerous artifact that a very pissed off Sith Lord is hunting for.

Which means we'll completely coincidentally meet him once again in another part of the Galaxy. This stuff needs proper setup.

What's the point of surviving an adventure if you don't get a love interest out of it?
 
To be entirely clear, Imperius is still going to be possessing her regardless. The "well, at least you'll have Imperius with you" option is indicating that Skylah won't pick up an additional ongoing travelling companion.

I realize that, yes.


...Any bets on how long it takes for Skylah to drive Imperius insane during their road trip with nothing else to stand between them other than the droid and the vast emptiness of space?

Not so much because I don't want a companion, but just because that would be the most Skylah answer. And isn't that the important part?

It's fine to have a love interest, but if there's one thing that the pandemic has taught me is that we all need our space. Going from "just met" to "let's shack up together in my tiny spaceship" is way too fast.

Brenby is tempting, but Amira is a bit of a goody-two-shoes and I wanna work at that. I'm kind of sad that we can't take Elra and Avress tho. That would have been hilarious

I feel like I'd prefer to run into Brenby later have adventures with the goody two shoes for now. But yes, it's a shame, Avress and Elra would be the immediate winners otherwise.

mmm yes

I'll take this one.
