100% agree with you on an unkindness of ghosts. and re: thrawn lord i wish timmy z would just let the lad not be a genius. i can't believe we get a book where we're explicitly told something he's bad at and then still see him be blue gary stu art boy. crossing my fingers for book 2 tbh

YES LIKE. TIMOTHY. SHOW THRAWN FAILING, DON'T JUST TELL US HE DOES. also like. he's NEVER had to DEVELOP the skill of reading the art? also you're telling me that single test he aced so badly they assumed he cheated is only the first time he's fucked up at the chiss academy or whatever? the thing timmy doesn't know is that Thrawn is a person who would SUCK at lower ranks and it's like. It needs to be made more explicit that in fact his rising through them is not because he's good at stuff but because the Patriarch is pulling the strings. and it doesn't have to be explicit that it IS the Patriarch, just that SOMEONE is doing it. that could be a fun mystery for your little book, timmy! God. clearly I have so many feelings about how little this author knows his own character lol
