#literally what even bc yes thrawn would shoot at the new republic

[beverage-cowboy]

I think part of the reason people think that thrawns actions weren’t accurate or that thrawn isn’t really thrawn and “Dave filoni ruined him” is because thrawn isn’t the main character or even the main villain of Ashoka and therefore people haven’t gotten any sort of “real” context to his actions (besides everything we got in the show and rebels) because no one is saying “oh thrawn did this because of this” “I, thrawn, am doing this because of this” “I, other character, do not understand why thrawn is doing that but it’s thrawn so there has to be a reason”

Because it’s a fucking tv show, no one is going to say that in a tv show!! When reading a book, it feels normal for the character to ponder or guess at what the other characters mean when they say that or do something. It feels normal that the character is thinking things through on the page but thrawn is going to say out loud what the fuck he’s doing because that’s stupid and he barely talks to other characters in Ashoka anyways!

Go read an essay if you want to get an extremely detailed explanation of what someone is doing, if you’re not reading an esssay shut up about how you didn’t get the explanation
