*Valkyrie would invite Ahsoka Tano into the Valkyries at a moment’s notice. You just know she was standing right outside the Jedi High Council Meeting chambers after the Council done fucked up with a big grin on her face and her elevator pitch proposal all ready: “So, kid, you ready to become a Valkyrie now?”
She would also invite Ventress. And Padmé. And Leia when she finally met her. Basically, Valkyrie is ready to adopt all the tossed-aside female characters and teach them how to be mythic badass fighters. (Don’t you think for a second she wouldn’t welcome any and all trans women, particularly trans clone troopers, because she WOULD)
*The moment the Revengers arrive in the Star Wars universe, Loki’s first order of business would be to locate the Obvious Person in Charge and proceed to either sleep his way into their favor or simply fuck them up with some magic and transform himself into them.
You can imagine how much fun it’d be when he inevitably meets Sheev Palpatine. (“Brother, he was already evil long before I got here I promise you that, therefore you can’t *really* fault me for trying to manipulate him, can you?” *mischievous batting of eyelashes*)
*Bruce cannot catch a break, since the moment the Jedi find out about the Hulk – a monster fueled purely by rage and other strong emotions – they scream SITH SHIT SITH SHIT while Palps is over in the corner salivating and *very* eager to get his creepy little claws all over Bruce Banner.
*Bruce is also the only one that’s aware of Star Wars as Earth knows it, so needless to say he spends most of his time particularly perplexed. (Yes, for much longer than he cares to admit, he’s pretty sure that Mace Windu is Nick Fury and this is all just some elaborate S.H.I.E.L.D. simulation created to fuck with him or keep him docile in some out-of-the-way research facility, drugged out of his mind. He is not amused)
*Speaking of Earth references, Thor mistakes Yoda for Kermit the Frog when he first meets him.
*Thor, Loki, and Valkyrie understand most of what they hear spoken in the Star Wars universe, give or take a few things. Bruce just stands there trying to remember the plot of the Star Wars movies so he can deduce what the fuck is going on without knowing what anyone is saying, until he finally throws up his hands and builds a universal translator because he is a badass scientist and he is *tired*
*The Revengers destroy slavery. Because why the fuck not? SOMEONE has to. (They have a lot of help from Korg and the rest of the emancipated trash planet fighters)
*Seiðr (Ancient Norse sorcery) looks a LOT like Sith magic/Force powers to the people in the Star Wars universe, so Thor and Loki get mistaken for Jedi pretty quick. (Thor does, at least. The clones all like him – they’re iffy with Loki, unless it’s Hardcase. Hardcase and Loki are buds. Game recognize game, as it were.)
*Hulk no like clanky men that go pew-pew. Hulk SMASH clanky men that go pew-pew and WIN WAR FOREVER.
*Obi-Wan is astoundly good at chilling Hulk out. He doesn’t do any of that rhyming bullshit, either. It’s a mix of powerful Force Suggestion and also the fact that Hulk just likes redheads.
*Thor enjoys lightsabers. The weightlessness reminds him of Mjolnir. *single tear*
*Thor can control Force Lightning like he can any other lightning, but he isn’t particularly fond of it. Force-imbued lightning is *weird* and he doesn’t like to touch it.
*Palpatine thinks Loki’s horned helmet is bitchin’. Loki immediately decides to never wear it again when he finds out.
The Akhal-Teke is a horse breed from Turkmenistan, where they are a national emblem. They have a reputation for speed and endurance, intelligence, and a distinctive metallic sheen. The shiny coat of palominos and buckskins led to their nickname “Golden Horses”. These horses are adapted to severe climatic conditions and are thought to be one of the oldest existing horse breeds.

The Fall of Gondolin is weird, because all these big fantasy novels and stories and animes have the Big Epic Fight climax where all the heroes fight so hard and barely pull through and it’s so badass and the audience loves it. Then we have Gondolin….and it’s….not. You read and they’re doing badass things and shouting about hopes and valor and dreams and youre like!! fuck yeah!! and they kill SO many balrogs and orcs and its going EXACTLY like one of those big climax battles. Then….it doesn’t. It just, goes downhill. Your favorite characters start dying, losing their little feats of valor. It gets less badass and more unsettling horror. The descriptions shift from awesome swords to wow, there’s a body in the street, wow this dude is dying next to his friend. Hey, someone’s daughter is out there sobbing and screaming and she watches her dad die. Another one of your favs dies. The room full of civilians gets attacked. You’ve lost the fuck-yeah mood and now you’re sitting there with a concerned expression because this is not the emotion you intended and it’s not sexy, badass action flick it’s just a cold nameless corpse in the streets and families committing mass suicide to avoid being taken into slavery, someone’s cousin trying to murder her family and rape her, there’s dragons in the street but they’re not cool and fuck-yeah, they’re burning people to death as they cower against walls they can’t escape from, and the battle is lost, and everyone dies, except for a tiny handful of people who run out a tunnel, way less than there should of been, and you’re like. Oh. That wasn’t the “cool fantasy battle” I was thinking it would be. That was a lot. I need to sit down. I just got destroyed by thirty pages of prose.
Isn’t that basically a summary of the entire First Age?
Dave Sandford endures 62 mph wind gusts and 20-degree weather for 6 hours a day to capture photos of Lake Erie during it’s most turbulent season, when violent waves can reach as high as 80 feet.
