HAVE YA'LL READ THE BEST FIC EVER!?!?!?!
Summary: Timeline: File 01 - Thrawn (2017) File 02 - Rebels, Thrawn: Alliances, Thrawn: Treason Borika Interlude - Ascendancy Novels leading into Post-Rebels times File 03 - Post-Rebels
Author: @furiosophie
Note from submitter: Incredible series covering Thrawn and Eli (and Thranto) throughout the books as well as up post-Rebels. Incredibly canon compliant in its execution, with attention to book details gloriously incorporated in, and in personally opinion one of the best Thranto fics ever written. Also go check out the author's tumblr, cuz there are illustrations for it!

Fellas, is it gay to physically pick up your aide to protect him from blaster fire?
A gift for @thespicypapaya, a commission for me done by @blackmonitor of a scene I chose from papaya’s fanfic; Enjoy! https://archiveofourown.org/works/43339410
Rukh Reimagined … for my Thrawn fanfic “Facilitation” on AO3 … warning: extremely spicy … mind the tags
okay so i just finished the first thrawn book right? and like all of it is making me feel insane and i am sure someone has pointed this out already but do you wanna know what makes me feel extra insane?
thrawn send eli away to protect him
like sure he also sends him away to help the chiss and so he could reach his full potential and bla bla but look - thrawn realizes very early that eli is a target as long as he's with him
and then that is proven over and over again throughout the book until it finally accumulates in this - pryce outright threatening thrawn right after she showed how incredibly ruthless she is
and then the very next scene is thrawn and eli talking about that very conversation, it's eli first acknowledging how dangerous pryce and the high command are and then confirming - even if he might not be fully aware himself - that he is loyal to thrawn not to the empire
which, let me remind you, comes after yularen just pointed a blaster at thrawn and accused him of treason
and i think that moment of eli pledging his allegiance to thrawn is the first time thrawn realizes both the depth of which he cares for eli and that he will be eli's downfall if he keeps him around
which then leads to him sending eli away to the chiss and this fucking devastating journal entry:
like for a moment i was confused bc it happend so fast without a goodbye, plus he offered it to nightswan first and it kinda felt like eli was just an afterthought but no oh fuck no
like nightswan thrawn would have send to help keep the chiss safe, to utilize his abilities to help them fight whatever enemies are lurking in the dark, but eli, oh no, thrawn never planned on sending eli away in the first place, not until he realized it was the only way he could keep him safe
and yeah eli will obv also be beneficial to the chiss, like ofc he will, he's smart as heck, but below all that is the simple fact that thrawn is doing all this empire shit to keep his people safe so even if the empire falls that is still the safest place for eli to be
and I'm just feeling very emo about that
Everyone on the Springhawk (and the rest of the ascendancy tbh) found Thrawn to be an anomaly. Because while he was extremely annoying, he was also very hot. But anytime someone asked Thrawn out (or propositioned ;) him), he always turned them down, sometimes politely sometimes not. Everyone eventually just came to the conclusion that Thrawn doesn't do romance.
Cut to twenty years later, a human shows up in the Ascendancy and introduces himself as Thrawn's husband and everyone loses their damn minds.
Because somehow Captain Mitth'raw'nuruodo fucked off to the Empire, found some ridiculously attractive twink twenty years younger than him, married him and then sent him off to the Ascendancy for safe keeping.
Can’t stop thinking about them

Do you think Eli and Thrawn ever explored each others bodies
Guys, I just finished tales of the empire and I have words
(Warning spoilers)
1. WE GOT PELLAEON, THAT SLIMY OLD MAN, INSTEAD OF ELI VANTO!!! YOU’RE SHITTING ME!!!!
Ok seriously guys like no offense to Pellaeon fans but like come on I wanted Eli. Where is space cowboy? Where is my beloved aid?
2. Adding on that, Thrawn in clone wars animation was amazing and very fun (they did add in those little things above his eyes after all) I was very happy to see my silly little blue man.
3. Barriss is now my queen?
I guess I’m now devoting my life and soul her. Like they did not have to go that hard with the animation but they did and I’m so glad (she’s so pretty!)
4. Barriss got back in contact with Ahsoka!!!!!!!!!! I’m so happy about it!!! She met her old friend again and maybe they did little Jedi things or missions together, also I really want to know how their reunion went (also I kinda ship barrissoka so I’m living life right now)
That concludes my initial thoughts on the matter, though there will probably be more later, enjoy ;)
Also may the fourth be with you!!!!!
