Art Teacher In The Future: Kids, Now We Have A BIG Challenge: We Are Going To Draw... Without A.I's Help.

I'd truly be the worst person to stick into a timeloop because I'd really just spend the first 5 years catching up on my book tbr, the next 7 on all the movies and shows that've Been On My List for ages, and then another decade on ao3. like sure nothing may stick but my memories will and i can just go into a supermarket to get snacks and wine each day, and i have art to indulge in. like thanks for the hints on how to get out but respectfully, I am busy

these kids though (or, lily and james potter still crop up in my sketches and probably will forever)

What always strikes me like a punch to the gut, is how happy and in love Anakin looks in this picture.

We all know he loves Padme and to what extents he was willing to go to keep her (Exhibit A: Joining the dark side) but the happiness and love for Padme in his expression when she tells him they're going to be parents is another level.

It just strikes me how truly Anakin, a slave boy who had to watch his mother suffer since childhood, then leave her and see her again when she's dying, leaving with Qui-Gon, only to lose him immediately and then be treated like a misfit with the Jedi, who have told him again and again how attachments are forbidden; how he craves for a family.

His family. Which he can protect and love and cherish. Where he would belong. The happiness he felt at that moment.

That's why he was so afraid to lose something so close to his heart, why he was willing to give up his beliefs and all that he had worked for in his life. Because he wanted that family he had always missed. That's what makes his fall to the dark side even more tragic 💔.

The most hardcore thing that Harry James Potter ever did was not, contrary to popular belief, the “there’s no need to call me ‘sir,’ Professor” incident, but instead was either the time that he

a) laid into one of the people he respected most in the world (and the only authority figure in his life offering him help in one of the most desperate situations he’d ever been in) for leaving his pregnant wife, going “man, you’re inhibited by your own self-loathing and fear? That’s rough. That really sucks. But you know what trumps that? RESPONSIBILITY. You brought a child into the world. You’re a father now. You’re scared? Walk it off. Walk it off AAAAAALLLL THE WAY BACK HOME. And say hi to Tonks for me.”

or

b) he willingly let himself be murdered, came back from the dead, walked back onto the battlefield, stared his own killer dead in the eyes completely unimpressed and called him “Tom”
