#i have big thoughts

"biggs' death was important in a new hope it was symbolic of luke fully leaving behind his boyishness/ immaturity and embracing his destiny---" SHUT UP

like.... i know.... i am aware.... i am ceo of arguing this point and Also the deleted tatooine scene's number one fan (it shouldve been included to drive this point home but i get why it was cut for the pacing)

BUT MANNNNNNNNNNN i wish he'd gotten to live bro tf! if biggs had been around to be gay with luke we wouldve had less weird incest shit in esb <3 you cannot deny that it's the truth <3

just like. imagine with me tho. like just thought experiment rn. biggs as a tether for luke's boyishness.... biggs existing to allow luke to be silly and dramatic and fruity in the wake of all these evil revelations and crushing expectations... biggs who knows luke as luke first and Luke Skywalker, Destroyer of the Death Star, Killer of Darth Vader and the Emperor, Last Jedi second. like.....

lots of people like to have han and leia and chewie play this role and its like. i mean yeah fuckin thats the canon shit right there like thats canon baby! but they didnt fr know him back when he was no one. han and chewie a little but they haven't watched luke tear through tatooine's canyons at break-neck speeds for fun. they haven't helped him try to fix worthless vaporators bc some days that's the only way they could see him. they never met beru and owen. hell they don't even know that he was known as wormie!

i think that han and leia and chewie (tho him to a lesser extend bc he's known jedi) definitely have moments where they fail to see luke first. i think there's a lot of moments, esp post rotj, where they see him as the last jedi, where they see him as detached or untouchable or unlovable, because they didn't fully know him outside of the rebellion. and i think that luke, esp when he's still working through what the jedi code means to him, just accepts this rejection at times bc "jedi don't covet" and i think it kinda kills him inside.

but biggs? biggs will always see bucket hats and oversized ponchos and a smile that rivals the twin suns when he sees luke because he spent most his life being in love with him and a lost religion isn't going to change that.

As much as i love Dungeon Meshi, i do think that given Ryoko Kui's attention to realistic worldbuilding there ought to be a companion series called Dishes Meshi where they spend 2hrs washing and drying and packing away. Alll the goddamnfuck dishes they just made

so lucanis is canonically mid-thirties, right? so at the end of the fifth blight, he was most likely a young teenager

can you imagine small romantic bean lucanis hearing about the crow from house arainai who fell in love with the hero of ferelden? of course the talons are furious. and even the older crows are annoyed (because now their targets are going to try to seduce them and they'll probably be terrible at it and it will just be embarrassing for everyone). illario calls aranai a sucker and a sap and possibly tells lucanis about the rumors that house arainai buys children from whorehouses for next to nothing and "you get what you pay for"

but while lying in bed late at night after a brutal day of training (i.e., abuse), maybe lucanis finds himself thinking about the stories and songs. arainai fell in love with a hero. he helped saved the world. he had friends. maybe he even saw a wyvern. it doesn't sound so bad to lucanis

but of course, he would never abandon a contract. he would never leave the crows. he would never turn his back on his house and leave caterina and illario behind

so imagine his surprise two decades later when he gets his chance. he falls in love with a hero. he helps save the world. he has friends. (and after the veil is guarded, rook absolutely took him out wyvern watching)

and he didn't even have to leave his old life behind. he doesn't have to live in exile away from treviso. he doesn't have to turn his back on caterina and illario and teia and viago. for once there is no price to pay or sacrifice to be made

for once he can just be happy

(all he has to do is share his body with a demon. but the demon is not so bad really. most of the time, lucanis thinks he's not any worse than illario)

"don't make it political!" .... what proportion of death and suffering must occur before politics are involved. if this isn't political, what is even the point of any politics, ever. of democracy. the words are "by the people for the people." if i am going to be left alone by my elected representatives to "figure it out" - to undergo damage, hardship, fear. what the fuck did i elect them for. what was their job. the entire point is that they handle this shit. this is why we were supposed to be electing leaders.

poverty is political. misogyny is political. gun control is political. climate change is political. how much aid a community gets is political. what the fuck are you talking about. it's been political this whole fucking time.

confirming the Ethiopian wolf pollination hypothesis seems so straightforward in theory, like just erecting anti-wolf barriers around some of the hot poker plants and seeing if those get pollinated at the same rate as the other ones, but also I feel like it could be some lab’s 6 year long project that ends up in Nature and answers more questions about wolf dessert time than I could ever think to ask. and also it would give more beautiful photos of wolves between 3 seconds and 1 hour into passionate nectar indulgence. so hopefully with the media attention they’re getting they can do that
