I wrestled with the thought of sharing this for months, but I've been deep in my feels about Tech today so I figured I'd finally share.

Art by the amazing @cobaltbeam !

Flowers used:

Forget-me-nots - (self-explanatory meaning)

Sage - Wisdom, thoughtfulness

Purple iris - Wisdom, dignity, strength, courage

I also asked them to sprinkle some white flowers in there to represent his "death"/sacrifice.

Butterflies are a symbol of rebirth. I didn't think about that when I asked for one to be included, I just thought the idea of him studying a butterfly was cute. And I like butterflies. Whether or not it means Tech will be "reborn"/return later I'll leave up to you. :P

The light halo is self-explanatory as well. I'm a sucker for symbolism in art!

It's like angel and demon on her shoulders, but they are her birth parents.

Ok I’m being so brave about it but a couple of days ago I saw this post claiming that the Jedi saying ‘this weapon [your lightsaber] is your life’ is emblematic of ‘the Jedi’s failure as peacekeepers’ (not an exact quote but pretty close) because why would a weapon be the life of a peacekeeper?

And like. The Jedi are a culture. They’re a religion.

You know that, right? You know that many cultures, including generally peaceful ones, have sacred weapons, right? You know that the bond between a Jedi and their crystal(s) is an extremely sacred thing that requires the consent of both parties and is integral to their way of life, right?

You know that lightsabers are not intended to be only for killing, right? That the first thing Luke learns to do with his lightsaber is to shield and defend? You know that a culture having sacred weapons doesn’t mean that they view killing as sacred, right?

Not trying to start shit, I don’t even remember who said it, but ugh

I saw a post (I can’t find it!!) of clones bodies and Fox was showering with his armor and it made me think of Spider-Man showering with his suit so I did this

an unwanted promotion

confusing Odysseus and Orpheus is like confusing a liar and a lyre. send post
