getting to know your mutuals!
thank you for the tag, @andrandiriel ! it's so nice to see people thinking of me :)
what's the origin of your blog title?
i don't actually have some kind of fun or cool story for why i picked 'stxrmcloud' as my blog name. back when i created it, that was just my go to for almost everything, it was just something i really liked.
otp(s) + shipname(s):
ooh i have so many. anything with Charles Winchester, or probably holyhawk (Mulcahy/Hawkeye) and perhaps HolyToledo (Mulcahy/Klinger). ive gotten really into RadarHawk as well, though it's not a huge otp of mine. im also really big into ocxcanon, so anything related to that is a huge otp. (ill gladly ramble about my ocs if you ask)
favorite color:
green :)
song stuck in your head:
i have so many playing on constant loop in my head, it's insane. mostly it's Ma Meilleure Ennemie or perhaps Porque te vas. i really like songs in other languages. meant to be by bbno$ is another.. Guys and Dolls from the musical of the same name.
weirdest habit/trait:
i don't know if i have any weird habits. i constantly sit on the ground when there's a chair and if im in a chair, it's usually in an odd position.
hobbies:
writing, drawing.. namely creating in any fashion
if you could have any job you wish, what would it be?
same as above, anything that allows me to create or have some form of creative outlet.
something you're good at:
hmmm... perhaps collecting? i love little trinkets, omg.
something you hate:
asshole people, people who love to stir up drama just for the fun of it. PMO so much
something you collect:
trinkets. small little things, anything my friends give me that they say was because they were thinking of me.
something you forget:
that i have people who care, that i have people who actually like that i exist and am around
what's your love language?
gift giving, physical touch.. quality time is nice too, i like being around who i love.
favorite movie/show:
im lousy with favorites.. MASH, Final Space.. Ocean's 11 is a favorite movie of mine. Atlantis, Treasure Planet, Anastasia. Big Hero 6, the movie and the series.
favorite food:
i really like pizza :)
favorite animal:
ferrets! :3
what were you like as a child:
quiet, introverted, i didn't talk to people i didn't know. i was more animated around people i knew and liked.
favorite subject at school:
ELA, English
least favorite subject:
math and the occasional science
what's your best character trait?
i don't know if i have a best character trait. i like to think im pretty funny when i try. though my jokes mostly consist of 'thats what she said' and witty comebacks
what's your worst character trait?
probably how self-deprecating i am. im working on it to try and get better, though i can't help but revert back to it from time to time.
if you could change any detail of your life right now, what would it be?
id probably change the fact that i don't know what i want to do with my life when i graduate. if i could change it to know what i want to do, then that would be a lot better.
if you could travel in time, who would you like to meet?
David Ogden Stiers. he was in my childhood growing up and i didn't realize he was in so many disney movies until after i saw him in MASH. i want to be able to meet with him and tell him how much i love his acting, how much i love Charles and how he's played.
i cant believe it took me this long, ough.. but ill tag @seepweed @nepspire @pinnballss @dr-wurm @armory11 and anyone else who wants to participate in this!

For the kiss roulette, please do prompt 40. An impulsive kiss, for Fivesoka 👀
Thank you so much for the ask! This is the first ever fivesoka piece I’ve written, so I hope you enjoy! It’s a little longer than planned but that’s a good kind of mistake to make as far as I’m concerned 😉
Without further ado, here’s the fic:
Impulse
Fives dropped down beside Ahsoka, landing heavily and somewhat unsteadily on his backside. Leaning over and squishing his shoulder against hers he asked, “Would you like some?”
He wiggled a mug holding a rather strong smelling alcoholic liquid and gave her an exaggerated wink. Ahsoka smiled and shook her head.
“I don’t think so, Fives. I don’t partake of anything Hardcase brews.”
Fives chuckled and shrugged, making a face as he took a sip.
“Why not?” He asked.
“Because I value the lining of my stomach,” Ahsoka muttered with a roll of her eyes.
“It’s not that bad!” Fives insisted, although the way his face contorted into a grimace as he took another swig had Ahsoka bursting into uncharacteristic fit of giggles.
Fives grinned, seemingly happy to have elicited such a reaction from her. Nudging her side with his elbow, he questioned, “What are you doing all alone anyways? You should join us and celebrate.”
Ahsoka smiled wanly. “I am celebrating,” she insisted.
“Looks to me like you’re brooding. And given that we just won the war, I’ll have none of that.”
Ahsoka scoffed and crossed her arms over her chest, regarding him incredulously. “Since when did it become regulation to order your commanding officer around?”
Fives grinned and wrapped an arm around her shoulder, tucking her into his side. Ahsoka ignored the way her heart jumped along in her chest at the proximity.
“War’s over, ‘Soka. I don’t think you’re going to be my commanding officer much longer.”
“That’s what worries me,” Ahsoka admitted, leaning into his half embrace a little more, seeking what comfort she could. “It won’t be the same without everyone around.”
She gestured to the gathered soldiers for effect, and felt more than saw Fives nod against her montral. She shivered at the gentle contact, enjoying the scratchy feeling of his goatee against her skin.
As her eyes flicked up to Fives once more she felt the impulsive words tumble from her lips before she could stop them.
“It won’t be the same… without you.”
Fives’ eyes widened at her statement and his throat bobbed as he swallowed nervously. Still, he tightened his arm about her shoulders and leaned in slightly, setting Ahsoka’s heart aflight in her chest once more.
“Without me?” He questioned, raising an eyebrow in a teasing manner, but Ahsoka was caught off guard by the earnest hope in his eyes, sparkling and flickering as the flames from the bonfire turned his deep brown eyes to a pleasant amber. “What do I have to do with anything?”
Ahsoka tried to form a response. She really did. But when her lips parted, instead of speaking she leaned forward suddenly, closing the distance between them and pressing her lips to Fives’ mouth. The kiss was brief and exhilarating; when she pulled away she heaved a terrified breath, instantly aware of the implications of what she’d done.
Fives looked as stunned as she felt, eyes wide and lips parted, staring back at her in awe.
“I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to do that,” Ahsoka stammered, trying and failing to think of some way to explain her way out of this scenario.
Fives blinked a couple times before finally seeming to reboot his mind. Shaking his head lightly, he smirked and cupped her cheek, running his thumb across her cheekbone.
Slowly, he leaned in, keeping his eyes on hers until the last second. As her eyes fluttered closed, Ahsoka was only aware of the warmth of his breath on her lips and the gentle motion of his fingers against her cheek. The suspense nearly stopped her heart in her chest as she waited for Fives to kiss her.
When he finally pressed his lips to hers, Ahsoka was sure her heart did a full flip in her chest before it resumed beating behind her ribs. Fives’ lips were soft and purposeful against her own, and Ahsoka relished in the sweet sensation, feeling it was entirely too early when he eventually pulled away.
Fives moved so he could cradle her face between his hands.
“Well… I meant to do that,” he said, smiling softly. Ahsoka giggled and grinned, her cheeks pressing sweetly into the palms of his hands. Fives grinned with her and leaned forward, pressing a kiss to her forehead.
“Whatever happens next, ‘Soka, I know what I want. The only way you’ll be without me is if you send me away yourself,” he promised, reassuring her with an overly exaggerated stern look, couching the expression with a wink.
Ahsoka wrapped her arms around him and pulled Fives into a tight embrace.
“Never let me go,” she ordered. She hoped it would be the last order she’d ever give as his commanding officer.
“Never,” he agreed.
I’ve seen some writing friends doing this and it looks so fun!
Please send me prompts if you’d like, Crosslo or Rexsoka are the main couples I write but I’d be down to try my hand at foxiyo or techphee if someone wanted me to write one for one of those couples 💕
