Today I learned that Lockdown is about as tall as Optimus Prime
So that’s something
Just thinking about their tiny sleeping nook and Grogu’s lil hammock 😭

Most of Binks no Sake is just pretty descriptions of sailing an ongoing journey, but the last line stuck out to me. (I looked up the English lyrics, and it looks like they kind of didn’t translate the last bit all that accurately for the sake of making it rhyme?)
It goes: 果てなし あてなし 笑い話/hatenashi, atenashi, waraibanashi.
-nashi as a suffix means ‘without,’ while hate is ‘end’ and ate is ‘aim/purpose’ so hatenashi, atenashi means basically ‘never-ending, aimless,’
But the word that REALLY caught my attention is the last one, waraibanashi. It means ‘funny story.’
Or, to be a bit more literal-
...laugh tale.
IT’S FINALLY DONE-
What was supposed to be a quick sketchy barely-a-comic became… this lmao.
Anyway, I wanted to do something based on this feral Optimus sketch I did a bit back, and may or may not have thought up a story surrounding it that I may or may not write properly in the future.
Explanation/backstory behind the cut!!

@hizukkahere wrote an amazing poem about Zukka and I had to make a melody for it. “The boy from the south gave his kiss to the moon And lost her again to the sky The boy from the south gave his heart to the earth And had to forgive her goodbye/ And with nothing to give the sun gave his hand The boy from the south asking why With a laugh like the rain and a dragon behind The sun promised he’d show him to fly”
I kind of imagine if becomes a folk song that people sing in the four nations and most people think it’s a myth or a metaphor but it’s actually about the Fire Lord and his Ambassador husband.
