Couldn’t help but see the similarities between Ahsoka’s realisation of Anakin turning more to the darkside, and Padmé’s. Although different the hurt, worry and betrayal are still present. 🌌

Anakin, Faust, and going to Hades...

"[Anakin] fell in love with Padmé then became possessive of her. He got jealous and all those things. Then when he found out that she was going to die, he would do anything to stop that from happening even to the point of making a pact with the Devil."

"[He thinks:] 'I want the power to save somebody from death. I want to be able to stop them from going to the river Styx, and I need to go to a god for that, but the gods won’t do it...

... so I’m going to go down to Hades and get the Dark Lord to allow me to have this power that will allow me to save the very person I want to hang on to.'"

"In mythology if you go to Hades to get [your loved one] back, you're not doing it for them, you're doing it for yourself. You're doing it because you don't want to give them up. You're afraid to be without them."

"You talk to the devil, and the devil says ‘this is what you do’ and basically you sell your soul to the devil."

"He’s traded his soul for power. It’s Faust."

"The more power he wants, and the more power he gets...

... the more he loses."

"In the end you have all this power but you have nobody to share it with, except some wizened old man who’s even more evil than you are."

"If you’re going to sell your soul to save somebody you love, that’s as we say in the film, unnatural. You have to accept the natural course of life. Death is obviously the biggest of them all. Not only death for yourself but death for the things you care about."

I love Padmé. She didn’t always make the best decisions but I just love her. Like she was a kid in The Phantom Menace and in her early twenties in Attack of the Clones, of course she did some dumb things. I could go on but I’ll spare you

@pscentral​ event 01: women ↳ padmé amidala, star wars prequel trilogy

Padmé Amidala was a human female senator who represented the people of Naboo during the final years of the Galactic Republic. Prior to her career in the Galactic Senate, Amidala was the elected ruler of the Royal House of Naboo. A political idealist, she advocated for the preservation of democracy as well as a peaceful resolution to the Clone Wars.

Ah yes, my favourite genre of Anidala has always and will forever remain the two of them flirting with one another in front of literally everyone.

Whether it be Yoda and OWK.

Or Padmé’s handmaiden.

Even in broad daylight. (Specifically in front of Rex and Ahsoka.)

Dire situations where they’re being held captive alongside other prisoners…

For God’s sake, at least show some restraint in front of Sith Lord Palpatine, Mace, and the Queen of Naboo, you guys 😭 c’mon!

Bonus:

OW not being above noticing how well Padmé knows her way around ANAKIN’S Twilight…

I ain’t even need to say anything for this one 😂

I’ll just end it by saying “poor 3PO and Jar Jar.”

this moment when padmé looks at anakin's lips just before he kisses her

[naboowaterfalls]

Might just be reading to into anidala as every other die hard anidala fan does but I love this scene so much because it genuinely proves how much padmé LOVED this man, holding his robotic hand basically implying that she loves him for him and no part of him could scare her

I made that up in my head let me be delusional
