Unlikely similar

His very person and appearance were such as to strike the attention of the most casual observer. In height he was rather over six feet, and so excessively lean that he seemed to be considerably taller. His eyes were sharp and piercing, save during those intervals of torpor to which I have alluded; and his thin, hawk-like nose gave his whole expression an air of alertness and decision. His chin, too, had the prominence and squareness which mark the man of determination. His hands were invariably blotted with ink and stained with chemicals, yet he was possessed of extraordinary delicacy of touch, as I frequently had occasion to observe when I watched him manipulating his fragile philosophical instruments.

Thrawn and Sherlock.

Tall, regal, graceful, delicate, sharp, slender.

Handsome.

Alike, yet so categorically different.

A "new" series, ranting about these two extraordinary characters.

In addition, of course, to Eli's and Ar'alani's ones, Faro's and Ezra's.

[And, to be precise —as I NEED to be for being, well, ME— this is actually my second post about the duo]

Will I end up extending #ThrawnThursday during the whole week?

Perhaps.

Do I care?

Nope.

The prisoner, as Eli had already noted, was of human shape and dimensions. But there the resemblance to normal humans ended. His skin was blue, his eyes a glowing red, and his hair a shimmering blue-black. [] The prisoner was dressed in what appeared to be skins and furs. [] Even marching in the center of a rectangle of armed stormtroopers, he had an air of almost regal confidence about him.

Standing [] was a tall, slender man. Or rather, not quite a man. His eyes were glowing red, his skin blue, his hair blue-black. He was dressed in a black military-style uniform with a burgundy patch on one shoulder and silver bars on his collar. Something was holstered on his right hip—a sidearm of some sort—with a slender, lightsaber-sized tube holstered on his left.

Thrawn.

Thrawn was taller than Samakro had expected, and carried himself with grace and a certain air of confidence. He was also courteous to the officers and warriors, and knew his way around the Springhawk.
