#mace windu i love you but you fucked up buddy

[impossibleprincess35]

Ahsoka Tano was definitely on the path to being a great Jedi because seriously.. get expelled when you're accused of crimes you didn't commit and then get exonerated so that the Council can be like, "Nah, come back! It's all good! Turns out, we're the smartest idiots in this joint and we are JUST NOW realizing that this was your trial"? Lesser individuals would have gone absolutely fucking berserk on all of their asses. Instead, this icon just calmly walked out.

You know everyone in that room was confused, like, I know that ain't Skywalker's padawan, leaving all calm and shit. Didn't even knock anything over on her way out.

But I digress! Ahsoka, I will fight them all in the parking lot of Dex's Diner for you. <3

Hi, for the fandom asks: 1 and 16 xx

1) list 3 positive things about your current fandom(s)

1- Saying "the people" is a vast understatement. My current community fills me with so much happiness - what kind, funny, incredibly clever people you all are! And if I go back in time, I sometimes feel like the people in the SW fandom half raised me at a time when I was a lonely, unhappy child stuck in a fucking terrible IRL community, and I'll always be grateful for that.

For example - I still remember in grade school, sneaking off during gym class to buy international phone cards at the gas station so I could call my Australian bestie (who I met when she EMAILED ME A FIC COMMENT because that was how we did it on some fic sites back then). I'd get up at 3 am (3pm her time, when she got out of school) and we'd talk on the phone about our crazy crack self-inserts and our love of Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon, respectively. DOOKU DIDN'T EVEN EXIST AT THIS POINT. We grew up, but she's still in my life - the suncatchers her mom made me are still hanging on my back window. She even came to visit me a few years back. She's a successful YA fiction writer and activist now. Sometimes I'm so proud of her that it makes me want to cry.

2- ahem, okay, I got kind of emotional on 1… this is controversial, and I'm sure I'll live to eat my words when they make rochenn's cursed stitched-back-together Dooku and somehow-survived Mace Windu live action buddy cop drama, but I actually like that Star Wars is continuing to get content. Okay, some of it is dogshit, and I wish there was some… changes at the top… looking at you, cowboy hat man… but overall, I feel lucky. Those Yoda comics were good and a couple of them were written by an actual guy who actually likes the character I love and cares about continuity? The last five years have had some really fascinating Star Wars content. Barriss is a healer again. Rael Averross is part of the family. We're about to get live action Acolyte. I don't know, I'm excited.

3- Ant said this a little bit in her reply to my ask, but I have to agree, I love how BIG Star Wars is. With my little pre-prequel Dooku fics, I'm writing in such a tiny corner of it, but the vastness around me is just wonderful and actually, very welcoming. It feels like there's always something new and interesting to read or see.

16) a tiny detail in canon that you want more people to appreciate

It blows my mind that Cavan Scott made Dooku an animal guy.

The scene where he's simultaneously flying a (stolen, iirc) speeder and mindmelded with his fucking pet bird and Qui-Gon is like "MASTER, beast control combined with weaving in and out of Coruscant traffic, ARE YOU FUCKING GOOD TO DRIVE RIGHT NOW?" and Dooku just replies ":D It's ✨ animal kinship ✨not 'beast control' Qui-Gon!' Unhinged. Beautiful.

I just love it when canon does something fresh and surprising with Dooku instead of recycling the "stuffy stuck up rich guy" tropes, especially in his Jedi era, when he's a fucking penniless chaos monk raised by a goblin. Fanon loves to make Qui-Gon the guy sneaking weird animals into the Temple (and I love that) but you know Dooku would have smuggled that Tirra'taka home with him if he could have fit it in his bed. Dooku is the REASON Qui-Gon is like that!

[panther-os]

I'm trying to write this but it's fighting me.

BASICALLY Bacara knows Obi-Wan's had run ins with Death Watch before and requests that he take Neyo as his commander since he knows the broad strokes of what kind of indoctrination Neyo went through and has the best idea of what he needs for healing. Vs the other Jedi who... do not. Except maybe Rahm Kota? but his anti-clone bigotry is a whole other thing.

This results in changes beyond who gets assigned as Obi's commander.

First off, Obi-Wan learns that a lot of clones are buddied up/pairbonded/qpps/however you want to put it and makes the executive decision that those pairs should absolutely not be split unless absolutely necessary. That means he drafts a proposal for the Council (which he's not yet on) with suggestions for command structure based on what Jedi would get along best with each other and with their pairbonded commanders.

The proposal is accepted and Bacara gets placed under Agen Kolar who then works with Obi-Wan and Padawan Anakin just about all the time. Anakin does not get Knighted yet and has Agen as a good role model for a more aggressive Jedi within the boundaries of the Code. (He does face consequences for the genocide of the Tusken Raiders.) Ahsoka gets to be Agen's Padawan. And Agen is not Qui Gon fucking jinn so he doesn't use her as an emotional support crutch for his grief over his last Padawan. Which means they get assigned to each other closer to the end of the war, when she's older and more willing to wear some fucking armor.

She and Anakin still get to have a little sister - big brother bond.

Because the 21st and 91st tend to operate behind enemy lines, Anakin is out of the Chancellor's reach and his and Padme's relationship is forced to go slow. Padme also doesn't get pregnant during the war which means any visions of her dying in childbirth just result in an increased use of birth control.

The war goes on longer but there are fewer Jedi and clone losses, and Palpatine eventually stretches himself too far and gets discovered.

Behind the scenes, Cody and the 212th get assigned to Mace Windu, and Appo and Rex get assigned to Yoda - specifically for being patient and professional and tolerant of shenanigans. Codywan battlefield meet-cute happens with Bacara and Neyo in the background making increasingly desperate "stop. cease. desist" hand motions but it's too late, they're very much in lust with each other and that becomes deep and enduring love over time.

Aaaaaaand that's all I got so far? Send asks if you want, it will help me flesh it out.

[maulusque]

How they respond when asked “who would you marry, if you could?”

Obi-Wan: I consider myself married to my work. My life is dedicated to the Force. I suppose you could say that I’m married to the Force. Shut up, Satine.

Anakin: *shifty eyes* ummm.... marry? who said anything about that? I’ve never even heard of marriage. what’s a wife? i certainly wouldn’t know i don’t even know what a woman is

Padme: ...you can marry people who aren’t women, anakin

Fives: well, i think i’m at least halfway married to Echo, and the other half of me is married to Rex. Does that count?

Rex: not Fives

Kix, ungluing himself from Jesse’s face for .05 seconds: what did you say?

Cody, wearing Obi-Wan’s tunic, drinking tea from Obi-Wan’s mug: i’ve never thought about it

Ahsoka, dumping a box of magazine clippings out on the table: well there’s this pop singer and she’s super hot, and there’s also this stunt performer from alderaan whom i’d honestly let choke me with her biceps, and this is a picture of a lesbian farmer i found on the holonet, and this lady-

Rex: Ahsoka that is literally just a picture of some woman’s shoulders

Ahsoka: e x a c t l y

Yoda: become one with the Force, everyone will *whacks your shins with his stick*

Mace Windu, eye twitching: a t t a c h m e n t

Boba Fett: I am going to grow up and marry the abstract concept of revenge. our children shall be Glorious Victory and Death to the Jedi. Those are not names, those are also abstract concepts

Wolffe: I don’t have time for marriage i barely have time to take care of all these fucking kids- Sinker goddamn it put your brother down

Plo Koon: I do not need marriage to make my life complete. I do, however, need some adoption forms. Several thousand of them.

Bly: n o  o n e *hides notebook with “bly secura” doodled on it behind his back*

Aayla: Bly please. We’ve been married for a year.

Commander Fox, Very Stressed: I’m going to marry the fucking chancellor, and I’m going to get the mother of all pre-nups, and then I’m going to divorce his wrinkly ass and take him to the fucking BANK and leaving him with NOTHING. and i’m TAKING THE KIDS TOO.

Palpatine: I would marry Democracy. No, not the abstract concept, I would literally marry democracy. I love democracy. You see, here is some fanart I drew of me and democracy together- warning, it’s nsfw-

Tarkin: I would marry my fluffy bunny slippers. they are the only ones who have always been there for me

Dogma: ... can i marry a reg manual?

Echo: no you can’t i already asked

Rex: actually you know what, i’d marry Senator Amidala, just to see the look on Skywalker’s face for the .3 seconds before he obliterates me and i find the sweet release of the void

Ahsoka: ...you okay there buddy?

Rex: no. no i am not. i am very tired and very stressed and i need to punch something

[inquisitorhotpants]

okay let’s just get this out of the way.

i didn’t like it.

If you liked it, I am honestly jealous of you! I wish I did. But I am really uninterested in any attempts to convince me to like it.

TROS review, with spoilers, below the cut

So I walked out of the theater very “meh” on it. Almost everyone else in my friend circle seemed like they loved it, so I ruminated on it for a couple days and came to a conclusion.

I’m not meh. 

I really, really don’t like that movie. I will likely never turn it on of my own volition.

These are not in any particular order, just as they come to me.

The pacing is absolute shit. 

JJ’s “Lost” buddies got more lines and screentime than Rose, an established character they promised was getting a bigger more impressive role in TROS. 

Everything important Rose did got cut. That lightspeed hopping Poe was doing? Rose worked it out. But I guess we didn’t need to know that.

There are more effective ways to communicate in a movie than having Poe stand around reciting exposition about things he shouldn’t know about, but clearly JJ Abrams is uninterested in any of them

So many unearned emotional moments that mean nothing to the characters but JJ slaps in there to mash the dopamine button because HEY REMEMBER THIS YOU GUISE

So just to be clear, Leia can fucking FLY THROUGH THE VACUUM OF SPACE but just mentally communicating with her shitty kid kills her, sure jan

Rey would have just fucking killed Palpatine if he’d just shut the fuck up but no

Someone banged Sheev Palpatine.

Who also managed to somehow survive the second death star FUCKING EXPLODING.

You had the chance to show a fucking sith cult and went with “have Poe recite exposition about a sith cult”

The universe shows up for Lando, but not Leia??? 

Do not get me wrong, i adore Lando! But I really feel like even Lando and Chewie would have been like, “what the fuck??” about this?

JJ Abrams is a fucking shit writer

Pretending everything in TLJ doesn’t exist - except for some halfassed R*ylo, apparently - is shitty

Rey felt grossly OOC this whole fucking movie.

SHE ABANDONED FINN ON THE GODDAMN DEATH STAR

In theory, the Palpatine thing could have been good in the right hands; JJ Abrams was not the right hands.

All it took for Kyle Ron to stop being a space fascist was thinking about his dad telling him to be nice? THAT’S IT? Well hell, why are we punching Richard Spencer when we can just ask his dad to tell him to be a good boy??

Why the hell did we bury the lightsabers on Tatooine? All Luke ever wanted was to get away from there. It meant nothing to Leia. It meant nothing to Rey. It was literally only there so that viewers could go OMG I LOVE ANH and get teary eyed

So after that frankly excellent acting where Rey tells Kyle Ron to leave her the fuck alone, we get heart eyes and “Ben!” and a fucking kiss? 

When she doesn’t even know who the fuck Ben Solo even is??

Neither do we because he has no fucking lines??

Finn is the glue that holds this fucking trio together and he’s reduced in half the movie to running after Rey. Gross.

We seriously took the member of the trio with the most established backstory and most filled in timeline in canon, played by a Latino actor ... and made him a former drug dealer. really? not a single person went “hmm maybe this looks bad”?

Fic writers will do hours of research so they don’t get something wrong in a PWP smutfic, and you can’t research Poe’s backstory for four seconds?

please enjoy your three minutes in each set piece, keep all hands and arms inside the screaming traincar at all times, and ... nowwww we’re going to slowwwww dowwwwwwwn so Rey and Kyle can Force Skype for no apparent reason

there are no actual stakes

“Chewie died!” just kidding

“threepio is gone!” just kidding

“we don’t have a fleet!” just kidding

“kylo ren, head fascist, is dead!” just kidding

“Final Order” is dumb as fuck

so much finnrey baiting

this covers the part about unearned emotional moments much better than i ever could 

Good thing Vader eliminated that galactic menace, amirite? oh wait

“closes the entire saga” hey jj you know there are NINE movies in the saga, right? cause there sure wasn’t fuckall about the prequels in there.

this “trilogy” doesn’t feel like one. at all. 

it’s so checkboxy. “they want r*ylo, check! no r*ylo, check! use that leia footage - shit we’re out, give her the weakest death imaginable. twin suns! palpatine! let hayden say a couple words so the prequels fans shut the fuck up! ‘everyone’ complained about rose, cut her out! cameos out the ass!”

The Knights of Ren were boring af.

rey gets no character growth

Are we just gonna make all the black folks in the movies related? Lando & Jannah already are, so do we get a short in a couple months where we find out Finn is his son and they’re all related to Mace Windu? 

It just felt very “i didn’t like your movie so i’m going to make 2 and 3 in one smashed together mediocre movie”.

I just cannot get past shit writing and shit pacing and a hack job at “homage”

Now i’m stuck looking at a hundred hot takes on twitter about how “this is ben solo’s trilogy! he’s the real hero! he’s the poor abused boy and no one else has ever had it worse in the entire star wars sagaaaaaaaaaaaa and how dare rey get everything while he was abused and neglected and had NOTHING” thanks jj

Y’all I love this cast and they deserved so much better than what they got from this trilogy.

I suppose there were a couple of things I liked.

the music was phenomenal, as always. Palpatine’s theme done in the style of Rey’s theme was great. 

space horses!

FINN FINN FINN FINN FINN

FORCE SENSITIVE FINN

the bickering scene. I got my hopes up after that. They were quickly disappointed as Rey quickly went off into OOC-land

Dark Rey and that little snarl at the end

I thought the new force powers were cool af. It’s about time we do something with the Force beyond jumpy jumps, zoomies, and the jedi mind trick

I’ve only known D-0 for 4 days but if anything happened to him ... you know the rest.

i actually enjoy the theme of “you are not your bloodline” but it was done so much better by Claudia Gray.

Anytime the trio was together was good.

As much as I am super “eh” on Kyle Ron as a character, I appreciate Adam Driver as an actor, and the scene where Rey passes him the lightsaber and he does that little shrug with the smirk, that was good. I liked that quite a bit. 

The problem is that cool setpieces do not a good movie make.

I started The Witcher the day after I went to the movie, purely to stop thinking about this shitshow of a movie, and that show is great. xD

[katierosefun]

so instead of writing, i’m here to just ramble about this book and my general thoughts. uhhh spoilers under the cut???

okay okay okay okay so like. let me just say that i super loved dark disciple for like...the first 3/4 of the book, and then it just got depressing and also some stuff happened that simply did not pass the vibe check. 

overall rating i guess is like a 3.75/5 stars?? i would have given it a whole-ass 4.5/5 stars, bUT THEN SOME STUFF HAPPENED, WHICH IS WHY I KNOCKED THOSE POINTS OFF AND WHOO BOY-- 

okay okay okay but good things: 

obi-wan, quinlan, and anakin characterization is *chef’s kiss* 

obi-wan kenobi you guys. obi-wan kenobi. he is. tired. and also the sass lord. and also. also guys. he’s just so good. he’s so good? i cried like 3 times just thinking about him today. he’s so fucking compassionate and caring and i wanna d i e we love one (1) jedi man, and his name is obi-wan kenobi okay i’ll stop--

just in general though, obi-wan’s such a good guy. this book really showcased all his best traits--in how empathetic and how deeply, quietly caring he is. (and he never. not once. badmouths ventress. he respects her, and i’m. that’s my man!!!) 

quinlan vos characterization. so, i’m not too familiar with quinlan except for like,,,one comic and that one (1) tcw episode, but i really, really loved him for like...again. the first 3/4 of the book. he’s funny and bright and just this sarcastic little shit who...could totally get along well with anyone because he’s just. dude. he’s great. 

also: psychometry stuff with quinlan!! it was so super interesting to read about that from him?? like, w o w i can nerd out about each jedi’s ~speciality~ or whatever in the force, and quinlan’s psychometry stuff was just...really really cool you guys. 10/10. 

anakin is. so chaotic. he goes ‘oh wait we’re gonna murder dooku? hell yeah!’ (and the entire council and obi-wan is like “anakin sit down.”) he’s also just. so great. a moron. banters with obi-wan a little bit. that banter was the only thing keeping me going near the end of this book, you guys.

ventress. 

VENTRESS. 

v e n t r e s s. 

oh where to start with you, ventress. 

i just. i love her a lot?? we see her start off as someone who’s clearly been hurt by the world, but she’s got that suck it up, bite back harder attitude, and i’m. ugh. i love my witch bounty hunter emo gf. the best. 

her bantering with quinlan in the first half of the book is awesome. 

actually, quintress (???) in the first half is really good? i was surprised that i got so quickly invested in it, but i did (and that was a mistake, as we’ll find out later oopsie) 

idk i don’t usually get invested in ships, but there was something really interesting about seeing quinlan be like ‘okay so maybe flirt with her a little but it’s fOR THE MISSION’S SAKE’ and ventress being like ‘ugh i can’t stand this laserbrain’ and then the two of them just. slowly. being. like. ‘uh-oh catching feelings what do now’ 

their first kiss scene. oh man. im. huh. huh. many thoughts, most of them good. 

also ventress goes to the jedi temple at one point. 

anakin and ventress banter. ‘nuff said. 

actually....just ventress interacting with obi-wan + the jedi council is hilarious. 

at one point both obi-wan and anakin hide under dooku’s desk i think?? asdfasdf MORONS 

ventress fondly calls quinlan her idiot and i’m boutta cry right here in this wendy’s parking lot 

okay so the ending was beautifully written, even though i hate that we got there. 

quinlan and obi-wan are drinking buddies. idk why this is important but it’s important to me. 

overall. good characterizations of those characters.  mostly. (mostly.) 

bad parts 

okay so right off the bat: did not like mace windu characterization??

idk man i felt like the author was trying too hard to be like “hahaha mace windu is dark and murderous inside” and. uh. no. that’s a big no. does mace windu want justice? yeah. does mace windu want the war to end? for sure. but?? idk something about this characterization was just...eh. not right?? i think it would be interesting if it was something like palpatine got intel and was like ‘yoo @ jedi council i want you to kill the count :)))’ and probably plan for the counciil to send anakin, and then the council goes “lol no we’re sending quinlan instead”. (see? idk i feel like that would have made more sense than windu straight-up going “yo i’ve got this plan to end the war we’re gonna assassinate dooku :))”) 

also in what world would anakin be like “yooo let’s murder dooku!!” and windu agree with that, and like....that to be canon?? what?? what?? hello????

there’s also that tidbit in rots when like,,,windu’s about to take down sidious without a trial and i guess that’s kinda consistent in dark disciple, but i just. idk man something about windu wanting to execute quinlan vos without a trial left a very sour taste in my mouth, and i did not particularly enjoy that. kinda skimmed over those bits because :/// 

will not stand for this mace windu slander in this house. that is very 2013 and we are done with mace windu slander. 

so. so. the second half of the book. where quintress just...eh. 

i don’t get it!!! the pining and the bantering and the ‘i think i might have caught feelings for you’ was so great in the first half, and then it kinda spiraled??

idk don’t get me wrong i like seeing ventress soft and happy

(i just don’t think...she would be so soft and happy solely because she’s with quinlan??? idk man what about her cute begrudging big sis/lil’ sis relationship with ahsoka??? that would have been interesting to read about) 

lowkey at some parts i was reminded of anakin and padme?? (there’s def. some parallels there though.) 

ummmm...idk. i just feel like even if ventress loved vos, she’d take one look at his i’ve fallen to the dark side bs and be like “okay, you moron, we’re fixing this right now, now s i t.” 

i mean i guess the angst kinda gives us that really good asajj and obi-wan scene at the bar so i can’t be too mad about the angst, but still. idk. didn’t really see how asajj could be like...the sudden “oh woe is me” attitude. 

anyways. 

quinlan honey. there’s some genuine pain in seeing him actually spiral. like. it was bizarre, but there was some pain and like. similar vibes with anakin where you’re just like “wait no no no don’t do that why are you doing that stop doing that n o w” (lesson of the night, folks: maybe you should eat and sleep and then you’ll stop thinking of the dark side you know???) 

(okay, i guess that’s not really a bad part. it’s just a pain part. ignore the prior bullet as a categorically ‘bad’ part.)

okay so uh. let’s talk about that scene.

yall know the one.

the one. 

where. 

ventress.

fucking.

dies?

i read what was happening and audibly went “no” because what the fuck-- 

listen. listen listen listen i know star wars has a thing for loved ones dying dramatically in another loved one’s arms but-- 

fucking-- 

i can’t--

i hate how ventress’ ultimate choice to sacrifice herself and somehow bring quinlan back to the light like,,,idk man something about that smells vaguely sexist. it’s just. i feel mad about that?? i don’t wanna deal with yet another story about another woman dying to advance the plot of yet another man? 

like no shade to filoni or whatever but we left that when satine died in obi-wan’s arms okay aNYWAYS--

i mean, i still cried when ventress died. i hate the entire scene and have so many conflicted feelings because from a writing standpoint, i liked the overall mood and tone of that scene. 

but again. 

i just. 

i hate that ventress died. 

and her last lines?? i just?? idk i kinda couldn’t hear ventress’ voice at that point anymore. like, i think those are some really good last words, but that doesn’t really sound like ventress to me??? 

idk!! i just!! im annoyed at that!!! ventress is still fucking alive!!! she didn’t die!! at all!!! she’s fine!!!!!! 

anyways. 

idk these things just upset me so much that i had to knock a whole 1.25 points off my overall rating for this book huh

OVERALL, i’m glad that i read this book and it made me feel way too many things in the span of 24 hours, but i’m glad that it did, and it was a nice distraction from the overall anxiety of today (lol this is gonna be strange to read back to in another few hours isnt it) bUT!!! i’d recommend for some really awesome obi-wan and anakin and quinlan and ventress moments, but like. be warned that uhhh,,,,maybe the second half is where you should drift into fanfic land or something. 

okay last dark disciple update: uh. uh. uh i have many thoughts and none of them are coherent and i lowkey hate the ending but also the ending was beautifully written but i also hate the ending do you feel
