Charlie Vickers as Halbrand/Sauron in The Rings of Power — 2.01 "Elven Kings Under the Sky"

“i thought you were the moon and i was your wolverine”

I AM GOING TO HURL MYSELF INTO THE SUN

Sauron having constant nightmares about the Orcs mutilating his body after Adar stabbed him in the back, tho, really got me going. Imagine waking up every day after having that nightmare. This man is experiencing high anxiety on a scale I could never even dream of.

And no wonder he never cares about the Orcs. This is how he starts his day: Orcs murdering him en masse. Wake up. Go about my day. No wonder he is the way he is.

God, it explains so much.

The Prime Override - Chapter 75 is up!

Obi-Wan - The Marketplace, Part II

Thanks so much for your patience! Didn't manage to get this up last night bc AO3 was down, so here it is now!

Not the longest chapter, but I hope it has some exciting bits!

This chapter: Obi-Wan's ditched by the Mand'alor, but quickly gains other company.

He tries to imagine Jango Fett’s face under the beskar bucket of the man who had just stood beside him. Tries to remember how he looked under the harsh white lights of his apartment in Tipoca City, tries to remember how he looked behind Count Dooku, in that balcony high above the stadium where Obi-Wan was to be executed. Jango Fett’s scarred face had been handsome but in a rough sort of way, and mature too, showing his years of experience in a way that none of the vod’e’s faces can. He had been older than Obi-Wan by perhaps a decade; one of the reasons why Obi-Wan could never mistake one of the Vode for their template, when they were all so incredibly young. The thought makes him pause; he remembers how young Waxer looks next to Boil now, how other vod’e he remembers from the war like Ponds also look far younger. Those who’d died. Those in vessels. Does death mean a transference to younger clone body? If so, what does Jango Fett look like now? Perhaps he actually does look more like one of Obi-Wan’s men than the older Jango Fett Obi-Wan is trying and failing to imagine. If he took off his bucket and appeared in front of Obi-Wan, bare-faced and wearing something that doesn’t mark his status, would Obi-Wan even recognize him as Jango Fett? Or would he think him just another vod?
