When Canon Messes With Headcanon (Guavian Edition)

[EDIT: I added new details and edits to this essay] I KNOW THIS STAR WARS STUFF IS OLD NEWS, BUUUUUUT... I'm sure you've experienced this... You see a media you really like and certain characters catch your eye. You start creating all sorts of fanwork about this character or thing. You have everything figured out and you even find this whole backstory awesome! Then canon decides to throw you a curve ball and it completely upends everything and you either find yourself greatly revising one's headcanon so they can accommodate canon or you just abandon the whole thing if it becomes impossible. I'm sure this has happened to you and it has happened to me. Here's Bala-Tik of The Guavian Death Gang in Star Wars: The Force Awakens (Episode 7)... I had a whole weird headcanon for this cranky ugly - cute young space Scot and the Guavians. I had this whole thing in my head where the Guavians were a community of freaky men, women and children who live a bizarre, wanton, hedonistic

ALTERNATIVE TO REWRITING THE NEW TRILOGY (UPDATE)

(BELOW HAS SOME UPDATES) ******** Hello,everybody! This is SyddyGurl after a hiatus. I had deleted the previous essay because I have another idea that might be more sensible... You see; I noticed that whenever STAR WARS makes a goof, plot-hole, contradiction or bad decision, it gets corrected or explained away at a later time. For example; When there's a blooper...like a kick that doesn't "connect" when young Luke is fighting Jabba's goons in ROTJ... ...It gets retconned as a "Force Kick". Granted it started as a joke but they can't re-film the scene and it became a genuine Force Ability (that also shows up a couple of times in the Preq

WHY I WAS WRONG ABOUT 'THE RISE OF SKYWALKER'

I've updated my thoughts on this TRoS thing... [THIS WAS ORIGINALLY A RESPONSE TO A COMMENTER BUT IS NOW AN ESSAY] I'm starting to warm up to it, now. I'm now beginning to thing about all the different bits and....rather than re-write everything....I'm going to add to what is there with supplementary materials and such as fan fiction.... The only real quibble I have now... ...is the complete side-lining of Rose Tico. As for the other quibbles....they can all be explained, expanded or fixfic-ed while still being true to canon.... BEN SOLO'S "DEATH": Ben Solo will never leave Rey for he and Rey are a rare Force Dyad.At the end of the movi

MY PERSONAL HEADCANON 4 BALA-TIK AND THE GUAVIANS

MY TAKE ON BALA-TIK (He's so sexy AF!) AND THE GUAVIANS (TEAL-DEER ALERT. I WILL MAKE PERIODIC RE-EDITS TO THIS ARTICLE TO ADD OR MODIFY MORE STUFF IN THIS HEADCANON.) ANOTHER UPDATE: There has been more stuff added to the official canon in regards to the Guavians in the animated series, STAR WARS RESISTANCE in the episode "Kaz's Curse". I have amended this headcanon of mine to reflect the changes..... The Guavians had their origins in a human-filled district in one of the lower levels of Coruscant and talk in a "coarser" version of the Coruscanti accent (Sounds like posh English to us Earthlings). The Guavians tend to talk like Scots, Iris

STAR WARS - A Possible Clue on DJ's Real Name.

I checked out the new DJ Comic one-shot (because I have a soft-spot for that big adorkable, sloppy, stuttering slicer hunk) and came across a POSSIBLE CLUE....a vague hint....of DJ's possible name. Of course; It'll always still be a big mystery unless the Star Wars people decide to reveal it later on....especially since Star Wars names are mostly weird and imaginary, anyway. Anyway; Part of DJ's scheme in this story involves a name...."DENEL STRENCH". DJ narrates the story, here, like some stereotypical noir protagonist and in his naration near the end, he allegedly lets slip that "Denel Strench" was an anagram of his name. However; DJ qu

MY TAKE ON SLANG AND SWEARS IN STAR WARS

Well; I learned that in the Star Wars Universe (Both Canon & Legends), there's a whole slew of euphemisms, profanities, slang and stuff. When creating fanfic of any kind, I think it's best to use these words rather than real-world epithets. Anyhoo; I have my own take on these different words and have my own little system based on it. It involves substituting Star Wars terms for real ones and using them in the same way as the real ones. I also have my own interpretation of "E-Chu-Ta". Now, First; We have a few Earthly curses that are used in Star Wars: "Hell", "Damn" and, from the latest film, "Big-Assed" (that huge First Order batteri

STAR WARS - Observations on DJ's Hygiene....

Ah yes! Benicio del Toro's (technically-unnamed) Space-Hacker character, "DJ/Don't Join".... ....Who could forget that big goober? The new STAR WARS TLJ VISUAL DICTIONARY makes mention about DJ's lack of hygiene and coating of grime. No doubt that would mean that his big scruffy studmuffin must've stunk to high heaven. However; I have a way to make him stay appealing with some fan-theory and headcanon.... ....In the comic, DJ makes mention of how he wanted to go to this local bathhouse (Yes; I know these places can be hook-up spots but I also know that they, historically, were also places where the common-person could get clean)....only t

Hey, I watched "Des" in these days and I loved it much! I don't recognize David Tennant initially but I think now we have a second favorite thing in common, I wish see how you draw Jeff o Dennis in your style, not obvioulsy in romance mood but portraits.

SyddyGurl

Sep 11, 2021

Yeah. I didn't draw that in the regular way, though. I made those portraits with a "Manga" themed avatar-maker.

It's less a drawing of mine and more of me goofing with some online "Dollz".
