such a huge fan of whatever the hell syril and dedra have going on right now in andor. syril is such a freak and dedra is just chill with it? protective over it? kinda into it? they are the cringest freakest losers the galaxy has ever seen. he spent last season stalking and obsessing over her and now they live together. he buys groceries and she pets his face. he face plants on her bed and she goes Awwwww. and he is still so awkward but she is just as awkward? obsessed with the shot of them just standing silently in the living room not looking at each other waiting for syril's mother to show up. they are like two strange fascist sunflowers growing beautifully side by side. not to mention syril still being religious about his corporate 9-5 while dedra gets put on an intragalactic propaganda campaign. but it is also quite sweet in a way. syril gets overstimulated at the family function and has to go to the other room to have a moment and his mother tells dedra Isn't he just so strange? surely you'll easily make him less strange. and then dedra says I like him so strange Kill yourself. what a lovely family.

I GOT THE QUEEN SY SNOOTLES

The last thing vel said to cinta was "we have a minute." And she was right. They only had a minute

The fact that obimaul isn't a more popular ship makes me crazy. How do more people not see it.

They're narrative foils. Maul survives a killing blow because the thought of Kenobi kept him alive, and what is obsession but a mirror of devotion? Obi-Wan is the master of defense and Maul is the master of offense. Obi-Wan's first and last kill of his life is Maul. The trajectory of their lives is extraordinary similar until the Same Duel sends them shooting off into opposite directions and defines them both for decades. A duel that teaches Obi-Wan the feeling of revenge that will haunt Maul the rest of his life. Obi-Wan was the apprentice who was never wanted. Maul was wanted too much. Obi-Wan overcame his trauma, but Maul never could. Both rebellious by nature, forced into the mold of the Perfect Example of their respective orders, and yet they have the same failing - Maul, desperate for companionship from ANYBODY, and Obi-Wan who struggles with his attachment to the people he loves. Both forced into exile by the same man who destroyed their lives and orders. They've hurt each other in unimaginable ways and yet understand each other like no one else can.

"The only one allowed to kill you is me" but isnt that just another way of asking live for me? Who is your rival but your purpose? Is there not a tenderness in the eyes of your worst enemy who has seen you at your absolute lowest and still needs you to get back up? Because without you, what are they?

Idk I'm stuck on "sithballs"

fanfiction and wishful thinking aside- is Maul canonically asexual? Post chop? my limited research told me that libido greatly diminishes once the sithballs are gone

if anyone has any headcanons feel free to chime in

Cereal Torture. Mommy Issues Squared. Evil Autistic Association.

Just throwing some ideas around

What's their ship name? Nazi4Nazi?

Mon's really putting the panic in that disco, huh

"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!

Ngl joining the jedi order sounds like the ideal life to me because just imagine:

1. People regulate thier emotion and communicate to you logically. No need to understand social cues when you're an empath.

2. No pressure to marry, be in a romantic relationship and live in a nuclear household my entire life.

3. I can just?????? Help people?????? Without the extra cost of a system working me to the ground to achieve certain things????

4. No strings attached companionship and friendships? Amazing.

5. A caring and respectful community who council each other and accepts who I am as a person? Count me in.

6. Lightsaber go brrrrrrrrrr

7. Being able to do what I want career wise (Gardening, art, politics, piloting, exploring, childreering, medicine, teaching, etc.) without having to worry about money.

8. Tax fraud

Mace windu vs jiang cheng, who would win? (Not in a fight, in a purple-themed diva-off)

Samurai Mace. Third Jedi in samurai star wars concepts. Mace Windu. Magister of the Jedi order, Council Member, Great warrior. First and second HERE

honestly i have to kinda disagree with that post thats like “being knightcore doesnt mean pro monarchy just swear ur undying loyalty to ur bff or ur crush or smth”

no. thats not what makes it sexy. either grapple with your beloved master’s role as a symbol of the state or choose to ignore it entirely and remain their loyal hound to whatever end, uncaring of the structures of power which you serve. become naught but a blade, the burden of your choices left to settle in the hand that wields you. it’s not about being besties forever it’s about OWNERSHIP and DUBIOUS MORALITY and FRANKLY QUESTIONABLE POWER DIFFERENTIALS

i feel like luke would be very nervous to tell din about his family but then he realizes it doesn’t matter bc din doesn’t even know who darth vader is and also doesn’t give a shit

Star wars fans try not to fall for anti-radical pro-police propaganda challenge level impossible

What is with this fandom being willing to find (and make) every reason under the sun to absolve Fox of literally shooting Fives dead but still insisting on blaming Saw for Tech's death?!?

what’s a polite way of saying that discourse (an utterly meaningless word) around saw gererra annoys you greatly because no one is ever gonna get the nuance they want out of his character because his primary appearances are in children’s shows meaning that he’s always going to be portrayed in a negative light bc shows made for children have simple morals that can’t really account for the nuance of the necessity of far-left action and/or terrorism and also his character was made by a company that has military contracts meaning that he will also always be portrayed negatively because the concept of a radical partisan is frighting to the status quo regardless of how politically adept Andor might seem but no one ever includes that nuance when discussing his character so everyone argues in circles until the sun burns out and we all hate each other

i don’t know how some of you can go “well naboo ALWAYS elected teen girls to rule them, it’s tradition!” then just leave it at that. like i think there’s a lot to interrogate here lmao

everything about the clones’ existence makes me so unwell. it’s like. you are a copy of a man who is a killer but he is also a father and he is whip-smart and tough but he’s a simple man and he asks for one thing when he agrees to be cloned and it’s a son. and you grow up to look just like this man but you are not his son you are his paycheck

When I show up to the life-altering lesbian situation ship contest but my opponent is sabedala

*gently hands this to the five other Sabedala shippers on here*

But what about the age gap???

this is for @keldabekush :)

star wars is so fuckign stupid. i genuinely disagree with this storytelling choice because i think a key part of vader's character + psychological purgatory is he never gets that closure of going back and enacting harm against his enslavers, the only real retribution he does is killing palpatine. but i can't say "killing watto negatively impacts vaders arc" without sounding insane . can i

i could add a few more stages to grief if they let me

First gif is Anakin, second one is Vader

why does darth vader always walk in like this

Me: The Acolyte is the culmination of decades of thorough misunderstanding of the story Lucas was telling in his original six-part saga. And its depressing that at this point, the genie is out of the bottle and can't be put back in, with how pervasive the misreading of the prequels and the Jedi is.

Them: Sir, this is a Taco Bell.

when the world needed him most, he returned

Star Wars could have been great, but nope, George Lucas decided to not have not even a single Alien species that are just Sentient Dinosaurs. Literally just that, Dinosaurs. Star Wars could be fixed with Dinosaurs

Sorry not sorry to make this about star wars, but this is exactly where I think star wars fails with Padme! The way she never shows up, is barely mentioned after her death, despite how much she affected the galaxy, both positively and negatively! They treat her like she only haunts Vader and maybe obi-wan, and that's not true. She haunts the narrative, and that's a whole different thing. We should clearly see the ghost of her legacy in every damn movie, but instead I just get glimpses so vague I wonder if I'm imagining it...

I love how Suguru is like the queen of haunting the narrative. His relationship to Satoru affects and directs him constantly. Jujutsu high's failure of him affects every single character from Yaga and Shoko to second years. Not to mention his literal dead body being taken over to shape the narrative.

It's amazing how he's dead from beginning to the end and is still present every moment of the story.
