May the Fourth be with you! And whoever wants to help build a lifesize lego x-wing... with me. Since we're back in town, lego party. With cake. All that's needed is a desire for fun and legos.

That includes you. Adults are welcome. Also, I bought a pair of blasters on Naboo to incorporate into... whatever we're calling it.

So, you had mentioned costume changing spells for Mamma Mia! And I was wondering if I could get your help with a last minute birthday costume fun idea. Wouldn't have thought about it except we're ACTUALLY here for my birthday.

	Is today your birthday? And what sort of costume? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Eliot \| Tahiri unshod 2020-05-05 03:07 am UTC (link)
	That it is. I didn't know for a while after I arrived because calendars. But when Han Solo was here one time, I got his help. Possibly the only time math was fun. Stooooormtrooper. So I can be a little short for a stormtrooper. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I take it you mean a previous time? Regardless, happy birthday. Why would you want to dress as a stormtrooper? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh, yes, last year! I've been here over a year now, but it's the first time I've known it's my birthday.

1. to tease Master Luke even though he's not here
2. because they came out of the clone troopers, who weren't evil
3. but clone troopers aren't aaaaas recognizable
4. and also are deserving of more respect and less poking fun at
5. although many people dress up well as stormtroopers in this world, some in town aren't
6. it takes power away from the symbolism of them, and that is a fair and good thing to do
7. it helps me have power over the idea of stormtroopers (and the clone troopers being forced to kill jedi against their will)
8. i'm embracing the attitude of may the fourth and dressing up as myself/a jedi just isn't the same
9. interacting with things like this helps me have balanced emotions and handle strong feelings that sometimes come up about stuff from my universes
10. it is also sort of a whim with all that behind it

	Guess building with legos is good practice for building a weapon. Not as many explosions, at least. How about we sit down tomorrow and get started on your design? (Reply to this) (Thread)

See, that's ANOTHER reason to build stuff with legos. And I would hope legos didn't explode. That's not what they're made for. You coming?

Sounds good to me. There's definitely an... assortment of options for it to include. I can't say I can see how it'll become a whole. But planning + feeling right will figure it out, I'm sure. I'm not going to wait until Christmas.

Now you're just making it sound like a challenge. I wouldn't miss it.

I'll take a look at those with you. You gotta think about what kind of style you want, then figure out what weapon would fit it. Or the other way around. Me, I knew I wanted a scythe from the start, so all my training was built around that.

You've already got skills with swords. That might be your best starting point.

We can balance each other out. And I look forward to us both rising to the challenge.

That makes sense. Even among the Jedi, there are seven official styles of lightsaber dueling, and those styles and other preferences around using your lightsaber can shape how you build yours. But... honestly I haven't even specialized there. I am used to working as part of a team/group for most fights, but obviously I still need to be able to hold my own. Basically... there's a lot to think about/determine.

Yes, most with swords. Some with knives. And some barehanded. Having a sword-esque option as part of its functionality would be good. If I had another kyber crystal, it could even be part lightsaber. But that's not something I can count on (sadly). But no :( face. This is all :DDD

	And ice cream. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	unshod 2020-05-05 04:00 am UTC (link)
	Yes. Because cake should always come with ice cream. And there'll still be two cakes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	controlshadows 2020-05-05 04:25 am UTC (link)
	Did cake flavors get decided? Because the ice cream should coordinate. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	One is chocolate. One will be something we've never tried before. It was going to be space cake, but we'll deal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
