#bc like!!!! that’s sort of the crux of it isn’t it!!!!!#‘I wonder sometimes if that is what drives us; that first abandonment#we have a lot to prove’#like are you JOKING ME#how is the entire thesis of the prequels arc just thrown away in some off brand legends novel#I feel like this is a real linchpin in the prequels era that nobody really seems to acknowledge#I would also argue this is the main point of the acolyte#the fact that the Jedi all come from somewhere#they all have parents and families and people that gave them away#whether it was for a good reason or not is almost irrelevant#it’s almost worse to think that the parents did love their kids and missed them and wanted them#we talk a lot about how the Jedi aren’t baby snatchers but what we’ve failed to discuss is the fact that#even if they aren’t (they aren’t) that does not magically make the inherent trauma of abandonment just. go away#star wars#star wars the clone wars#the acolyte#star wars prequels#this will get discussed in the ties that bind btw#like. a LOT
