#BRING ON SEASON 2

[isagrimorie]

I love that Ahsoka just doesn't like staying indoors on her own ship:

And I love how Sabine took down two tie fighters in a very Mandalorian way.

And then Sabine's unapologetic but very angry march back up and tells Ahsoka she got 'em.

Ezra points out that the ship being down puts a dent into their plans, and Ahsoka says: "Not with that attitude!"

AND THEY TAKE THE HOWLERS. In a way, that's very similar to Rex and Ahsoka being on Wolves too

Filoni finally got his image of Ahsoka on a wolf-like horse:

I love the long-awaited rematch with Morgan (Diana Lee Innosato), Innosato is really good martial artist, and to see her finally get to move the way she can it was great to watch her fight!

Also, she's half-Filipina! And I think it uses Kali in this fight!

But also love that Morgan was doing this for Dathomir because her people will once again live. Dathomir will once more thrive.

For some reason, Morgan doesn't blame the Empire for the genocide, possibly because it was Dooku and Separatists.

I've heard it said that when Sabine heard Ahsoka and reached back to her in the last episode, it was Sabine's Awakening.

It was also fitting. The more Sabine was in a fight, the better she was with both the lightsaber and the Jedi instincts. It was a very Mandalorian way into it.

She's like Nynaeve from Wheel of Time. She needed specific conditions to access the Force. There's no better way for a Mandalorian to do so than in the middle of battle.

And once Sabine knows she can do it, doing so again wasn't difficult.

She's been doing it in steps -- sensing someone, the way she's been dodging lightsabers and blasters and referring it back. And the final act, Force telekinesis.

Force pushing Ezra was now easy because she'd gotten over her block. Or at least, she knows now how to get around the block.

But also, Sabine fulfilled her mission. She got Ezra home. Of course, she would prefer to be on that journey home but getting him back to the main universe and Lothal, is what Sabine wanted.

Ahsoka and Sabine jumping off the cliff to be lifted back and parrying the blaster shots from the wing of T6 was chef's kiss. What I wanted from live action.

And then, of course, there's the Ezra and Hera reunion, with Chopper recognizing him first.

I got so emotional with that, but I WANTED A HUG DAMMIT. THAT'S HER SON TOO!

Unfortunately, for Ashoka and Sabine, despite their best efforts, Thrawn is too far ahead, and they're stranded in the new Galaxy.

BUT

MORAI IS THERE. So, Ahsoka's meant to be in this Galaxy, on Peridea.

Because apparently there is the statue of the Mortis gods! The Father, the Son, and the Daughter, whose head has been destroyed.

And in season 2, we will discover what this is all about.

I think Sabine saw Force Ghosts here, whose Force Ghost could be Kanan's, but also we know, Anakin is there.

FORCE GHOST ANAKIN. And I love that they're smiling at each other.

BRING ON SEASON 2!

But also, MOTHER AND SON MEET AGAIN

I can’t wait for the return of this himbo filled crew to return to my screen

This THIS is a good show!

The first episode does move a little slow, but once the action started moving, things definitely get going. If you like X-men, I recommend checking this one out.

One of my favorite trope for Steddie is Steve hunting down Eddie when the kids join Hellfire and giving him a long list of dos and donts.

At first Eddie thinks he’s just being a prick, and worried he’s going to turn the nerds into freaks like him. Especially when he says not to mention drugs in front of Dustin.

But then he starts pulling out lists of monsters that can’t be in campaigns. And like what??? Why can’t he use demagorgons? They were gonna be in the next combat! He’s tempted to ignore the warnings, in fact he’s all set to, but something about Steve’s face when he was laying it all out haunts him. Something so deadly serious about it. So first he decides to test the waters to see if he’s full of shit.

When the session starts, he makes a throwaway comment, “you’re acting like there’s a mindflayer around the corner.”

All the kids freeze but Wheeler especially looks like he’s going to be sick. He even grabs at the bracelet around his wrist. The one he always said his best friend made him before he moved.

Eddie curses himself for even trying to test it out after that, and immediately bullshits the whole session so he can scrap any hint of demogorgans from the campaign.

After that session he drives straight to Harringtons house and demands they go over all the things he can’t include again, in detail, while he takes notes.

He doesn’t know what’s going on with these freshmen, but he knows trauma when he sees it and well he’d gotten attached to the gremlins.

When he leaves that night, he thinks Steve is looking at him with approval. Like he trusts him with their well-being now.

I think this what they mean by queerbaiting

Season 1: talk it through as a crew

Season 2: eat some soup as a group

The scene at the sept with Alicent lighting three candles as Rhaenyra lights a funeral pyre is the highlight of the episode for me. Alicent and Rhaenyra are so intertwined in each other's psyches and I loved that detail. It was also interesting to see Alicent's inner conflict and religious torment since she recognized that her family, and to an extent her own actions, have caused Rhaenyra's pain and suffering and she needed to atone for this.

Here's some of my favorite Crowley on laudanum moments, just because:

1. Death is "just wrONGGG", Crowley said so. No more dying.

2. Because if you don't get high and improvise the unofficial anthem of Scotland (it's canon, Crowley improvised it), what are you even doing with your overly long life?

3. This lil dance is the best, I swear.

4. Reminder, he's looking at a graveyard, at night.

5. Find me someone cuter, I'll wait.

6. It was dark, he was wearing sunglasses, and he was high. Leave him alone.

7. I am petrified.

And bonus points because I will never get over this:

No, don't be shy, get closer.

Jaecaerys continues to be the only person with any sort of common sense. Obviously I'm not excusing what he says about people from the lower classes, but he makes a good point about his legitimacy being endangered by clear proof Targaryen bastards can claim dragons. Which is why the book makes SO much more sense bc the entire dragonseed idea is his idea, not Mysaria/Rhaenyra's. We can't know for sure bc of how F&B is written, but with it being Jace's idea it's implied at the very least that he's weighed the benefits versus the consequences to his own legitimacy and their dire need to win the war and decided in favor of having the dragonseeds claim dragons. Taking that idea from him though and having it basically be Mysaria's is a complete insult to him and a politically damaging decision he didn't agree to. And not only does he have to deal with that but also in this version he has to be the one consistently wrangling Rhaenyra's council because she's literally NEVER there. I sympathize more with Jacaerys every week bc I'm frustrated, so I can't imagine being him.
