No Explanation Needed.

Hey, everyone! I know it's been a hot minute, but I have an idea for a fic that I'm probably never going to right, but I thought you guys might like to hear about it anyway!

The thing is, I love crossovers. Even if there are just crossover elements, I'm happy. So, here's what I've come up with:

Star Wars: The Clone Wars w/ Spider-Man Elements!

An independent Kaminoan scientist is doing independent experiments on spiders. One day, two of their spider experiments escape.

The corridor that lab is in is a good shortcut to some of the training centers, and CT-5555, aka Fives, and CT-1409, aka Echo, happen to be using it as the spiders are out.

They both get bitten, but they don't think anything of it. They go to training as normal.

Come nightfall, Hevy, Cutup, and Droidbate are in a panic because something is wrong. Both Fives and Echo have fevers, not so severe that they need the medbay, but still worrying.

Come morning, they have ✨ spider powers✨

Here's what I imagine their powers will be, and possible weaknesses they have.

Echo

Organic webbing, like Toby Maguire.

Venom shock, like Miles Morales in Spider-Verse

Stickiness, obviously

Super strength

Spider sense

Enhanced senses

Fangs like Miguel O'Hara, but smaller

Purring

Enhanced metabolism

Healing

Lack of thermoregulation

Sudden aversion to mint and vinegar

Fives

Also organic webbing

Super strength

Stickiness

Spider sense

Enhanced senses

Venomous fangs that retract (I read about that in an MCU fanfic that I can't remember the name of)

Invisibility, also like Miles Morales

Purring

Enhanced metabolism

Healing

Lack of thermoregulation

Sudden aversion to mint and vinegar

I would also like to note that when they are feeling overwhelmed, cornered, or protective, they are liable to go a little feral.

Anyway, they figure out their powers with the help of their batch, and keep everything completely secret from everyone else. So, at the time of their Citadel exam, they're a lot closer.

Except 99, of course. He helped raise everyone. And Clone Force 99, eventually. Fives and Echo, and the rest of the Dominoes, love those kids. Fives and Echo help them feel not alone.

However, both Fives and Echo are overstimulated, because Bric is an asshole, so they aren't at the top of their game. Hevy decides they should take a calculated risk, and they throw the exam

(in my opinion, this just speaks for their faith in Shaak Ti)

Anyway, they pass the exam the second time around and get sent to Rishi. The twins still keep their powers a secret, but they still train with their powers.

When the invasion of commando droids comes knocking, Echo and Fives' spider senses clue them in, so everyone survives! Yay!

The twins do go feral, and they go a little crazy with the webs, but the first wave is pretty much obliterated by the time Cody and Rex show up. It is stressful to clean up all the webs. Luckily, the rest of the Dominoes distract Cody, Rex, and all the others on Rishi

Anyway, everyone survives so all of Domino squad joins the 501st

Eventually, the Dominoes trust the legion enough to tell them about the spider situation, and everyone loves it!

At one point, Hevy pulls Rex aside and is like, Fives and Echo see boundaries differently, so they were afraid to cross yours by asking, so I'm gonna ask for them. Wanna join us for a nest pile at some point? Because that is a thing they do at least once a week.

(also, that lil interaction is my way of saying I headcanon Fives and Echo as neurodivergent)

Also, once the Bad Batch gets out into the field, the Dominoes absolutely follow their missions, cause they're so proud.

Echo and Fives have told Rex all about them, so the 501st gets to work with them a lot sooner.

As Jesse is leading the Batch to the barracks they'll be sharing with the Dominoes, they hear the Dominoes talking about how proud they are of the Bad Batch and that they really hope the Batch wants to do nest piles like when they were cadets but if not they'll respect their boundaries, blah blah blah

Hearts melt, and a nest pile happens, of course!

And of course thanks to the spider senses Echo doesn't get captured, Umbara doesn't go to shit, the chip situation happens differently, and Order 66 doesn't happen!

Thanks for reading! If anyone ends up making something out of this, let me know! I'd love to see it!

This is what we need! If you don't like what other people are writing or shipping, you don't have to look at that content. No one is forcing you to look at it, so don't judge people, please and thank you!

Please return us to a world where Notp and squick are used for a ship you don’t like instead of just making up a load of bullshit about how immoral it is or w/e lol 

Okay, so we've all seen the harringrove stories where alpha!billy comforts omega!Steve after alpha!Nancy breaks his (Steve's) heart at that goddamn Halloween party. What I like to imagine is that instead of being heartbroken, Steve promptly stops giving a shit about romance in general, like, "screw it, I don't need romance to feel validated, I've got 6 kids to take care of." And then during basketball practice, all the alphas on the team start making sexist jokes about how Steve will pry start behaving like a slut now that he's single, or that he'll be desperate to find a mate, so he might as well present for one of them. In response, Steve says the following:

"and why the hell would I want any kind of relationship with one of you high maintenance alpha bastards?"

That shuts them right up, and Steve is left in peace to be a strong, independent bisexual mother of 6 who knows his way around a nail bat.

I'm trying to find a fic on ao3, and I can't remember the name of it for the life of me. It's part of a series, where basically Anakin gets transported into Darth Vader's suit right before the death star fires on alderan, and Padme gets transported, too, she wakes up in her grave. Please help me!

I just... I adore bat!Eddie so fucking much I just-

@ars-de-elysium I hope you don't mind the reblogn

Sometimes Dustin forgets about Eddie on his hat, Eddie makes sure to remind him that he’s still up there.

🏳️‍🌈Happy pride month everybody! 🏳️‍🌈

New header and Icon for the month, feel free to use them if you want to! (A like and a reblog would be appreciated! <3)

If you want something similar, feel free to leave me an ask specifying icon/header, flag and character/s and I will do it!

And then when Mike opens the door, who's waiting for him but El, Dustin, and Nancy. Their expressions put the fear of god into Mike, and he just turns on his heel and walks back to Steve. A shovel talk from Mom-Steve, as El calls him, might be scary, but even that's better than facing the rest of the Will Byers Protection Squad (and yes, they have t-shirts).

What are your thoughts on Steve being a good big brother/mom for El and Will and Dustin in particular? And when Byler happens, would Steve give Mike a shovel talk?

I love the idea of Steve bonding with El and Will. Idk what over but it would be so cute, and I ofc love Steve with Dustin because He is literally Dustin's brother.

I think that Steve, as his mom self would 100% give Mike the shovel talk. Mike would fucking hate it because ofc he has alove-hatee relationship with Steve. Mike would literally try to walk out of the room as Steve is talking lmao.

Hey y'all, just wanted to keep you updated, I made an edit to Chapter 1 of First Rule of Fight Club to include Loona confronting Stolas about not standing up for Blitz at Ozzie's. Once I will say, this is not Stolas bashing, I do love Stolas, but I definitely think he should have stood up for Blitz in that episode. I hope you all enjoy! If you need it, here's a link to the first chapter. If you're checking this fic out for the first time, I'd recommend reading the prologue first!

Okay, this isn't really a Stranger Things post, but I just want everyone to know this. Whatever your preferences, whatever kind of relationship you want it to be, find yourself someone who'll look at you the way Medjed looks at his cat.
