KYBER-PUNK 22BBY Shmi-I
[Averted Fates]— Shmi —“My star… is this truly necessary…?” Shmi asked.Ani, dear Ani, scoffed, almost as if she was offended by the question, “You deserve at least this much, Mom. If anyone questions your presence, I’ll make ‘em talk to me.”“I don’t want to cause you any trouble,” Shmi demurre...
KYBER-PUNK 22BBY Dooku-I
[An Old Friend; An Old Master]— Dooku —“They’ve been busy since you went along your way, Dooku,” A chuckle informed him from the other side of the holo-call.Dooku raised an eyebrow and drawled, “Oh? Please, do elaborate, old friend. Any update on new ground being broken in your… unique… part of the gala...
KYBER-PUNK CAST LIST/DRAMATIS PERSONAE
[AN: This was, if I'm honest, kind of a pain in the ass. Like, I know it's a good thing to have as a reference, but I'm reminded that there's a reason I don't usually do these for my stories. Probably didn't need to put so much effort into the blurbs for every character... but what's done is...

[Reckoning of Revolution]— Atom —The main market of Rorak 5 was a hectic and depressing place. Crowds upon crowds, slaves packed shoulder to shoulder, all waiting their turn to be sold. Species of all kinds, from Humans to strange, unidentified sentients from the darkest and most unexplored corners of the galaxy. S...
KYBER-PUNK 22BBY Ch.35
[Stories in the Night]— Maeve —“Mighty Leia is with us, one and all,” The Spiteful Man — Atom — said. “She is our sister, not of blood, but of chains. Everywhere they exist, she does as well, and she shoulders a portion of our burdens. You and yours may be new to this, but she’s with you all the same. Y...
KYBER-PUNK 22BBY Ch.34
[First Steps Beyond]— Atom —Apparently, I was a fraggin’ dad now.Kinda… Almost… In a way… It counted in my book. I just wasn’t expecting my first child to be a natural-born AI. Something utterly impossible, but frankly? I didn’t care. She had my info running through her code. She was valued. She was wan...
KYBER-PUNK 22BBY L-I
[Lucy's Interlude - Net-Date for Paydata]— Lucy —Lucy had come to realize something. Atom… was kind of a gonk.And not just in the obvious way, Head Gonk and all. He was kind of a gonk in the traditional meaning of the word, too. Dense, though Lucy wouldn’t call him a dumbass, and bad at seeing what was righ...

[The Fall of a Jewel]— Atom —I was falling through the void.There were stars at my back, a heavenly firmament stretching back to the birth of the whole galaxy. And a whole world splayed out before my eyes. So close below, yet so far above. It took up my entire view, the edges curving away from sight in the distance...
Don't mind me
As the title says, don't mind this. It's just a test post to see if it gets flagged the same way the OR-II chapter got flagged. 'Cause I can only imagine the reason for that was the bonus pics, so I thought I'd post just them here and see what happens.
KYBER-PUNK 22BBY OR-II
[Official Reports II]— Darth Sidious —“Thank you for hosting us today, Chancellor,” Padme said. “We have much to report.”Palpatine treated her to a polite chuckle and fond smile, “Yes, I do imagine this meeting will be an… interesting one. But first, tell me, are you well, my girl?”Meanwhile — truth...

[Official Reports I]— Mace Windu —The position of ‘Master of the Jedi Order’ was never a simple one. That went doubly so, Mace felt, for the ‘interesting times’ he presided over.While Yoda had tenure as Grandmaster, that was a spiritual leading role, not an executive one. The actual function and running of ...

[A Good Night City Daze]— Ani —A day of breaking chains. Finally. Ani was ready.She lurked, the endless shadows of Free Nar Shaddaa’s dark undercity hiding her movements as she crept forward. Her eyes never left the target.Ahead of her, a familiar and unmistakably terrible scene played out. The binding of chains....

[Mission Altered, Peace Reassessed]— Ani —“Padme?” Ani asked, worry in her voice. “Are you… okay…? You’ve been… quiet.”It was the morning after their visit to the Freed Refuge. The morning after listening to all of those stories shared by Ani’s siblings through Mighty Leia. The morning after that ...
KYBER-PUNK 22BBY Ch.29
[A Necessary Awakening]— Padme —“Come with me. I think you need to see exactly what we’re fighting. And thus, all we’re fighting for.”Padme wasn’t given the chance to respond to that statement, especially not when Atom turned right around on his heel and began stalking off like a predator. Not angry, not ...
KYBER-PUNK 22BBY Ch.28
[A (Blind) Date With Politics]— Atom —I thought, and steel moved. Simple as.My Mek was fully bared to me, connected through the Force and Mechu-Deru. Mechu-Deru for a Mek. Perfect.It wasn’t just an extension of my physical form, but an extension of my form in the Force, too. I operated it as easily as I operated ...

[ANI'S INTERLUDE: The Chosen One and He
Fem!Anakin Appearance Poll
Alright, here’s what I have in mind for Fem!Anakin -- Ani. At her core, she’s a tomboy. She’s rebellious and reckless. She genuinely wants to do good for the galaxy as a Jedi and is frustrated that she can’t. She’s also constantly aware that she’s the ‘Chosen One’ and angsting over the expectations that...

[Victory in Void Violence]— David —“Burning hard!” David called out, whipping SPECTRE around and immediately dropping back under her cloak.“We’re clear,” Taati called back. “Disengaged. They’ve lost us again. Good, good, GOOD kill, My Hunter~!”She kept her voice mostly calm, but it was still brimmin...

[Void Violence, Honest to Gonk!]— David —“This corpo FUCK thinks he can steal my spot, MY SHOT!” A Nomad raged.David didn’t even know his name. He was still responsible for listening to the gonk’s ‘official’ complaint. ‘Cause that was what commanding officers did. Apparently.Responsibility and shit. I...

[Talks of All to Come]— David —In the Gonk warroom, David took center stage. Unc’ Linth opened it up for him and encouraged him to show what he’d learned from the old spacer and their shared efforts molding the fleet into something worth talkin’ about. David took the opportunity for what it was: a chance to p...
KYBER-PUNK 22BBY Ch.24
[Free Nar Shaddaa]— Free Nar Shaddaa —A Smuggler’s Moon. A neon jewel of the blackest space. A lawless place, as stricken by exploitation as it was blessed by opportunity. A slice of Hell to many. A twisted sort of Heaven to many others, still. Nar Shaddaa was far from unmatched in the galaxy, far from unrivaled....
KYBER-PUNK 22BBY Ch.23
[MEKTON]— Atom —“How’d it feel, V? And how’d it perform?” I asked.“YEAH, FULL AAR, YOU LUCKY-ASS V-BRAT,” Smasher helpfully rumbled. “DON’T GET LAZY ON US NOW. I CAN’T HAVE MY NEW FRAME LACKIN’.”“Your new frame?” I rolled my eyes. “Eventually. Maybe. Me and mine are getting them first. R...

[JACKIE INTERLUDE: Just Another Gonk in the War-Machine]— Jackie Welles —Life on the Edge had changed in a way no one could’ve seen coming. Well, Jackie never would have, at least. But then, he knew he was something of a simple choom, a simple Gonk. He was muscle and chrome, not brains. It wasn’t his place to g...

[A Month of War]— Atom —A gorgeous Twi’lek starlet turned her back on her lover, “You know nothing of love!”“I know YOU. I have YOU. You’re enough, you’re all I need, all I’ve ever needed! Don’t block me out, Miyana!” Her male co-star pleaded and pleaded.Miyana scoffed, “Oh, spare me, Saren! You...
The Grind (Book 2) Ch.36
[PENTOS II (Dany II/Neville III)]— Daenerys —A slender figure, too slender. Fine features, too fine. A mind, body, and soul haunted, too haunted, by all she’d endured, by the only life she could live.Pale skin, pure and pristine like freshly-fired porcelain, despite a life on the run. Glittering waves of hair, at...
The Grind (Book 2) Ch.35
[PENTOS I (Neville II/Daenerys I)]— Neville —This is the story… about a world of adventure! A sea full of excitement! And a man full of dreams, with a passion that seeks to drive him to the top!A figure stood tall at the bow of their ship, one arm raised in salute of the world now opened up to them, “My name is...
The Grind (Book 2) Ch.34
— Atlas —It was too nice a day for a funeral…The sun was shining. The sky was blue and clear. There was a pleasant nip in the air. And… Lady Hogwarts was now missing one of her children.“Ginny… Ginny was a good friend,” Luna said, uncharacteristically somber, but still standing strong. “She was a part o...
The Grind (Book 2) Ch.33
— Heather —Come early; the night was rather ominous. It was a shroud of darkness over the whole of Oldtown. A pitch black sky above, with a twisted knot of even darker darkness hanging where the sun should’ve been. What few pinpricks of light peaked through the shroud felt less like stars and more like… eyes…...
