Star Wars and the Influence of the Force

One of the things I really liked about the Original and the Prequel trilogy is how they call to each other in terms of themes, character moments and journeys.

One of those character moments is the way each character reacts to the force succedenly not showing them everything or becoming nebolous.

In the Jedi´s case they recognize the force is slowly getting darker and try to find the Sith Master even if at first they are wary to believe Qui-Gon the Sith may be back but on EPII and EP III they search for the master because he evidently is clouding the force but they are not quite aware that it isn´t just the Darkside clouding it but their own interpretation of the events happening around them, which Yoda makes mention as Lucas center character to make those comments.

"Yoda says it Ep2.

OBI-WAN: But he still has much to learn, Master. His abilities have made him... well, arrogant.

YODA: Yes, yes. It's a flaw more and more common among Jedi. Too sure of themselves they are. Even the older, more experienced ones.

Yoda after discovering the clones:

Blind we are, if creation of this clone army we could not see.

So in the end the Jedi fall because of the Sith conspiracy to take them and Anakin´s choice of supporting Palpatine because he thought the Jedi were as corrupt as Palpatine always told him. Palpatine did this because the Jedi were the Sith main adversaries but also because the Sith Palpatine and Darth Plagueis, were able to hide where the Jedi would not look, into the larger galaxy, into the institutions of power like the Banks and Politics, instead of confronting them directly as they did in the previous Sith vs Jedi war.

This may not look like it but this is an inversion of what happened in ROTJ with Palpatine and the Sith.

Palpatine noticed in the Death Star that there was a force bond already grown between Luke and Vader when Vader tells him he noticed Luke came to Endor while the Emperor could not sense it despite being more powerful than Vader.

The Emperor then ask Vader if "His feelings are clear" Vader said they are, it was true, Vader didn´t believe there was any hope of changing his decision and believed the only one left to make a choice was Luke.

The Emperor and Vader just like the Yoda and the Jedi before them lost contact of what the force was trying to tell them because they had made up their oppinion on the matter, in Vader´s case he wasn´t aware how much his choices served to cloud or clear from the DS the force and in the end the Sith were defeated as well because as Luke said

"Palpatine´s overconfidence(in his control over Vader and Luke and the galaxy) was his main weaknes"

While Vader´s weakness was believing there was no more to be done about his past choices but when push came to shove he decided to sacrifice everything he had, his life, his loyalty to the Emperor and the Empire, to save his Son, out of compassion. This is what brought again the Jedi he used to be and by saving Luke, he gave an opportunity for the Jedi Order to flourish once more.

The story rhymes and the circle was complete once again

hi epii! probably a dumb question but i can't come up with an answer lol (nor did i find it in your tumblr sadly! sorry if you explained already) how did you make a whole desert section in foxfire forest?

Hi! I don't think I've explained it very recently lol.

I use these decals (or some edit of them, as I think I've reduced the texture size since) so it's just a cosmetic effect, sadly. I don't have playable lots on the desert side of the map, and I've camouflaged the view with decos from those lots that are nearby.

Technically speaking I assume it'd be possible to have desert lots too as I think you can change the terrain type any lot uses. I haven't tried it though. And those desert lots would have an opposite problem, as the whole hood would appear to be desert from them.

GET TO KNOW THE MUN. respond to the prompts out of character !

what made you pick up the current muse(s) you have? oh, where do i even begin?  well, i suppose i should start with how long sw has been in my life.  ANH was the first movie my mother ever saw when she visited the USA; she saw it with my grandmother ( and subsequently developed a massive crush on harrison, so indiana jones became a huge part of my childhood too lol ).  for this reason, my mother introduced my brother and I to sw when we were actual babies.  then, when the prequels came out, it’s all me and my brother consumed.  from the movies themselves to the original clone wars cartoon to the PS2 games to the novels/book series.  we watched it on a tiny portable player for every trip, and every time my relatives needed us to go away to let the adults talk lol.  it also helped our comprehension of english so much. i can’t recall a time in which sw hasn’t been present in my life! before i joined the tumblr swrpc, i kept to myself in the prequels community, wrote fanfic, and rped anakin on skype.  he’s always been a character that hit a little too close to home in one too many ways.  the main parallel i have with him (that doesn’t relate to his mental issues haha) is his love/devotion/attachment to his mother.  it’s difficult for me to explain without getting into the aspects of my culture (孝順 / filial piety), but in short, i am cantonese; if my mother asked me for my thumb tomorrow, i would give her my arm today.  anakin’s love for his mother, his determination to free her from slavery at an early age, was very touching.  EPII has been memed to oblivion, yes, but the pain i feel when anakin doesn’t get to hear his mother tell him she loves him one last time before she dies, and knowing that it haunts him for the rest of his life (eu), makes me want to throw myself out a window lmao  i have an extremely close relationship with my parents; this sort of pain is absolutely gutting for someone like me. anyway, when i joined the tumblr swrpc, writing han solo was never the plan.  i originally wanted to write luke but ended up changing my mind at the last second.  I’d written well over a dozen fics with han at that point, but was nowhere near confident, so i thought of it as more of an experiment. guess that doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things, because if you really think about it, since the day i started writing him in fics, he hasn’t stopped butting into my brain.  in fact, he’s been harassing me ever since—to the point that i even switched from writing luke to him… lol given my upbringing and my mother’s love for him, han has always been my childhood hero, as well as my brother’s.  our dad was our han solo.  the nostalgic and familial associations run so deep, it’s difficult to articulate.  we share many traits, right down to his universally agreed-upon zodiac sign (sagittarius); i know han solo like the back of my hand—and it’s probably because i wanted to be just like him when i grew up.

is there anything you don’t like to write? character death.  if i have to say another, it’s when people conflate harrison with the character he plays and then decides to address that in a thread.  harrison was a ladies man back in the 80s, and that’s fine, but that doesn’t mean the same for han.  i hate seeing the conflation between the two.  not sure if this happens as often anymore, but there was a time when fics/threads/even han rpers would lean into it, by default, thus totally destroying his character in my eyes.  i mean, write it as a storyline, that’s cool and fine, but infidelity has never been inherently part of his character.  i will die on this fucking hill.

is there anything you really enjoy writing? most unpopular opinion ever: action sequences.  critical situations, fast paced action, thriller scenes featuring immediate, life-threatening circumstances.  i love writing that which exhibits a sense of urgency and tension, with sprinklings of emotional depth and contemplative introspective moments.  scenes with internal conflict combined with aforementioned external events.  even evading enemy forces, sustaining minor/major injuries, dressing wounds.  dunno why those are always the most fun to me.  aside from that?  romance/romantic angst.  i’ve had many writing partners over the years, and each one thought they could outdo me in writing romantic angst.  sometimes, the psychosomatic pain of heartbreak isn’t far from feeling like you’ve lost a limb in battle.

how do you come up with headcanons? by being the most annoying, meticulous person ever.  i’m extremely detail oriented; when i see incongruities in my own work, i perish.  so, when i come up with headcanons, i have to consider all factors that may affect the outcome of whatever question i’ve posed in my mind and feel the need to justify my choices, for whatever reason, by tying it back to XYZ.  my headcanons must align with my muse’s personality, their environment from childhood to adulthood, their current circumstances, and if it’s an AU, how it mirrors canon events.  canon/eu is everything imo, because they are their own choices; it’s what shaped them into the character we know them as.  ofc, this is my process and opinion, so make of that what you will.

do you write in silence or do you play music? no music, no tv.  sometimes people talking is too much for me.  i have adhd and my medication only helps so much.  i will absolutely start writing down the conversation or lyrics playing in the background lol

do you plan your replies or wing them? plotting vs planning replies is different to me.  plotting gives me a foundation, but it can’t be too confining.  to plan a reply is to block out each moment.  if you trap me, i will always deviate; so i wing everything, even when i have a foundation.

do you enjoy shipping? yes, absolutely!  i’m not sure why people tend to assume otherwise, but i’m more open to it than people think.  i’ve never cared about who you write, if they’re in the sw franchise, or even what era of sw etc etc  never given a shit about what people think; if our muses click, they click.  honestly, some of the best ships i’ve had with han, as in the most enjoyable and enlightening of his character, have been ‘crack ships’.

what’s your alias/name? vin, vince, vincent.  vincent van hoe.  trash bin vin.

age? 27!

birthday? dec 2!

favorite color? silver.  if that’s not a color to you, then blue.

favorite song? you can’t expect me to… well, ‘in your eyes’ by the weeknd has been up there for a long time.

last movie you watched? star wars: the clone wars (2008)

last show you watched? … the clone wars lol

last song you listened to? billie jean - MJ.

favorite food? my mother’s 番茄炒蛋 ( egg and tomato stir fry ), unagi, freshly baked breads, fresh fruit …

favorite season? i get mostly tropical weather, but i love a cold winter.

do you have a tumblr best friend? unfortunately, so many people have left the site over the years, but i'm grateful to call these people some of the closest friends i have in the rpc: @techniiciian @desiccation @vibraea @rcvanchist @sgterso @voxcrystallis

tagged : @debelltio thank you for thinking of me!! tagging : if you're still reading this, i tag you!

You can find my OC Lupe's character sheet and general information here.

Lupe is depicted as Jedi Knight during the Clone Wars on her character sheet. Her appearance (including tattoos) changes through the years, so I'll try to get different versions as her story progresses. I'll try to create/design a fitting lightsaber for her as well, some day!

You can find my Lone Wolf Squad (clone OCs) and funfacts here.

The next world will be dropped 2000 years back

After writing my novel series "Tokyo Spy Mission 1970" and "Warsaw Spy Mission 1978", I'm totally bored of modernity. So the next world will be Sword'n'Sorcery fantasy with historical elements.

"Senatus Populusque" means Senate and People in Latin language, and it's also the name of Roman Republic.

Mithridatic Wars (88-64 BC) were fought between Roman Republic and Pontic-Armenian Alliance as the final phase of Roman conquest.

I found the Republic was full of slavery and colonization so I'll study how Roman provinces of Greece and Black Sea at that time resisted and fought for freedom.

Sorry I don´t discuss head canons.

Qui-Gon made a report to the Jedi Council, Obi-Wan was aware of exactly where Anakin and his mother lived, that they were slaves and that Qui-Gon won Anakin on a bet from the boonta eve classic, Obi-Wan was aware of this from TPM to EPII where Obi-Wan plainly told Anakin he made a vow to the Jedi that wasn´t easily broken, the official novels of those two movies show this. Padme was in charge for elimination of giving Anakin a place to sleep and food to eat right until the Jedi Council decided if they were going to accept him or reject him.

Once the Jedi Order, acording to SW canon, descides to take on a child they are THEIR responsibility and in canon it´s them the ones who deal with that child´s family, unless you support the HC that they take kids off their family without any contact with the parent which is kidnapping. In the Tatooine Ghost novel Shmi comments she send two messages to the Jedi and she was told only that Anakin was alright, that he had a new master but that he could not contact her directly because their laws didn´t approve it. Don´t come at me with the "they didn´t know" it´s painfully false.

Sorry, all of those people are adults responsible of their actions and it time fandom treats them that way because that´s exactly how canon treats them. Le sigh

"Why didn't the Jedi help Shmi after TPM?"

Why didn't Padmé.

Ignoring the expanded universe stuff about Qui-Gon sending the expensive lens or Padmé dispatching Sabé years later, so long after that Cliegg had already met, wooed, and saved up to free Shmi himself, why did Padmé not include "paying back the slave woman who helped me save my planet" in her post-invasion plans?

The Jedi have budgets that are regulated, to some unknown degree, by the Senate. Sure, there's probably some discretionary spending, but an Entire Slave would be flagged. Not a purchase you can hide easily! They're also NOT supposed to operate in Hutt Space unless undercover OR as official Republic envoys.

Padmé? Literally a queen. In the same galactic neighborhood. Has inherited wealth. Probably has room in her staff for a mechanic or something. Can easily justify freeing Shmi to her cabinet as payment for services rendered; remember, that Nubian hyperdrive was paid with Anakin's winnings, meaning they came at the cost of Shmi's freedom.

The real answer is that George Lucas needed Shmi to still be on Tatooine in AotC, and never bothered to expand on how Shmi was freed, himself, so other people took up the slack.

But if we ask why the Jedi didn't free Shmi, then I think we also need to ask: why didn't Padmé?

(I love Padmé. I fully believe she would have sent someone to free Shmi after Naboo was in order post-Invasion, and that it was just an oversight or even plot necessity from G Lucas. I just dislike the double standards of hating on the Jedi for not helping when Padmé is right next door and has That Cash Money.)
