The Daughter (Griffin Form) from Star Wars - Aluminum Foil Sculpture

[intexda]

I'm rewatching through clone wars and the mortis episodes (s3e15-17) are still the strangest episodes and most memorable of the lot. It's a full 3 episodes of 3 godlike people pointing at Anakin, saying

and then killing eachother off while fighting over control of Anakin's fate and brainwashing our heroes a few times. Clone wars got weird.

Wait sorry I’ve got more to say about Mortis

Something I think Clone Wars does really well is avoid getting hamstrung by its own canon. It strikes a good balance between finding nonlethal rocks to throw at its characters cough Zygerria cough and lampshading how everyone’s still trapped in the narrative - like “yay, you had a Moment of Personal Growth! It doesn’t matter because episodes 3-6 still exist! But good job!”

And the Mortis arc swings WAY into “inescapability of destiny” territory. 

Like usually when a character gets Christmas Carol’ed it’s with the idea that this is just one possible future which their actions can influence, and the Son does pitch this (”The future by its nature can be changed"), but I wouldn’t exactly call him a reliable source. Then the Father hears Anakin is trying to change his destiny and he’s like “you can cut THAT right out.” He says “Nothing is set in stone” but he also says “Your destiny can change just as quickly as the love in one's heart can fade,” which seem like contradictory ideas, and I’m not saying he’s super trustworthy either, but none of that actually matters because of what he does which is a mind wipe. So the whole plot point exists so that the audience can point and laugh at Anakin and how he can’t avoid becoming Darth Vader because that’s literally what Star Wars is about.

Also also can we take a moment to appreciate Ahsoka’s IMMEDIATE refusal to change the timeline in World Between Worlds even though it’s the future from her point of view I just think that’s Neat

TLDR I like that TCW’s solution to their main character being on an unavoidable collision course with The Narrative was to say “free will is a lie and the gods are dead”

OFFTOBER DAY 2. Impurity

[refreshdaemon]

A disappointing and confusing conclusion to a pointless story arc at least bids a permanent finale to Mortis and its inhabitants.
