Someone please put Obi-Wan in one of those "I am Kenough" shirts ASAP
see at some point post-ROTJ luke's gonna have to fill the droids in on the whole Situation and then this must have happened
Threepio: *full-on gibbering breakdown*
Artoo: *unfazed beeping*
Threepio, cutting off mid gibbering breakdown: you knew?
Artoo: *continued beeping*
Threepio: what do you mean, you were there?
Luke: wait what
Artoo, rolling away to go do droid things:
Luke: Artoo get back here right now
Artoo: *innocent whistling*
Luke: Artoo??
Reverse Star Wars AU writing challenge: every time canon fridges a mother, fridge the father instead. Every time a woman dies for the sake of Manpain™️, kill off the dude instead.
(I know this gets particularly complicated with Obi-Wan, because his woman-who-died-in-my-arms count is in the double digits at this point, but I have faith fandom can find a way.)
The only rule is that the story cannot be about a man. It cannot be about man angst. It has to center the women.
Just thinking about their tiny sleeping nook and Grogu’s lil hammock 😭
i had a 4 hour drive today so i put on the revenge of the sith audiobook and the part where palpatine tells anakin to kill dooku came on right around the time that i saw a cybertruck and for a brief and beautiful moment when he said "do it" i had the urge to ram my honda full on into that shitty ass car
Just had a vision of my death! After conferring with the Council (the voices in my head) we've concluded that I may be able to buy myself a couple extra years if I have a Tumblr, so here I am.
But what about the age gap???
this is for @keldabekush :)
known for leaving places early
"I never believed she was real, she seemed so fake" ??? If that's ur criticism, fine whatever, but isn't it more interesting to think about why this character might maintain a false persona, a stiff mask, in order to conceal a true self? The possibility that she does not and has never known her true self because she's never had the opportunity?? That that repression might affect her choices throughout her life? Maybe more of that complexity could have actually been shown in the movies, but no one's stopping you from reading between the lines a little, getting a lil imaginative with it? But no let's just say she's boring
ok, phrasing my objections a bit better: this is a reblog on an old web weave i did paralleling padme to lolita, talking about natalie portman being sexualized at a young age, how this may have bled into her taking on of an "adult" role, and at the end being critical of padme's positioning in the larger star war saga. it's an old post & ive now deleted it. because as much as i think padme's writing could've stood more complexity, i don't think there's any less imaginative or simple a viewpoint than "a CHILD as a QUEEN? NONSENSE. boring!!". like idk how the takeaway on a female character being a little inconsistent or having some flaws in her foundation is always that she should be wiped out completely & hated nonstop. im tired!
he consumes my every waking thought and most of the sleeping ones too
