hera and ezra reunion

i want to see hera catch sight of ezra at the same time he sees her. i want them to approach each other, i want them to be emotional but quietly---different from the loudness of sabine and ezra’s reunion---and i want hera to hug him like he might disappear in her arms. and then i want them both to break with a sob that could be a laugh while hera cradles the back of his head and marvels at how different he is. i want ezra to look up from the hug and for sabine to give him a brilliant, watery smile from where she’s watching, and then i want the girls to introduce jacen syndulla to him.

don't mind me. just making myself cry with my own fanfiction at 11:23 PM

[monsieur-kazzle-dazzle]

i was complaining to my friend about how ahsoka's fighting style is completely different and she doesn't do any of her flips and crazy kicks anymore but i just saw someone point out that she's 47? so yeah, i guess that's fair

[thenerdysimp]

I’m gonna go cry in a corner

I had a good day but not anymore

[perfectharmonyloveschaos]

What if Ezra has super long hair in Ahsoka because the last time he cut it Sabine got so mad at him because she wanted to play with it and try styles out on him, but he messed up trying to cut it and she had to shave it all off.

So now he just doesn't cut his hair at all and only trusts Sabine to do it.

I have personally seen cases where kids grow up as complete strangers to their heritage especially as is the case with my own cousin in California but that involved multiple factors

1) My aunt was isolated and practically estranged from boricua communities. There is a large latino population in California, yes, but it’s mostly Mexican, not a problem, but it’s drastically different from boricua culture. I cannot describe to you how sad it was to see her express relief at being around her people during holidays for the first time in over a decade.

2) Assimilation and shame was heavily encouraged. My aunt’s MIL, from Mexico, went as far as having her name legally changed to its English equivalent. Over the years since my aunt’s move to the states, there have been multiple incidents where she drastically exaggerated the state of the country and our living conditions (all way before the infrastructure, particularly electricity services, got noticeably Bad) based on sensationalist news articles. It got to the point where she called all of us “idiots” for staying.

Bringing it back to ML

According to a 2019 census, there were 71,500 parisians who reported being born in China, a figure that doesn’t account for descendants of chinese immigrants. That is a far cry from leaving Sabine isolated from her culture. She has ample resources to find and participate in a community of fellow chinese immigrants within the city.

In regards to assimilation and shame, just look at her fucking design and hobbies holy shit. It clearly doesn’t apply to her. As for her english (french?) name, it is a fairly common practice for people from various asian countries to adopt an english name. I’ve seen multiple explanations for this ranging from confucian self naming practices being influenced by exposure to western cultures all the way to workplace culture and convenience. In Sabine’s case, because her chinese name is so similar to her western name, I imagine it’s simply a matter of avoiding the headache of constantly correcting people on the spelling and pronunciation of her chinese name. It sucks that it’s something so many immigrants and even tourists have to do to be addressed respectfully but that’s also worth exploring within the narrative.

Which brings me to why it’s important that we recognize the crew’s intentions and POV when discussing how these characters and dynamics are written. They’re not considering any of these and countless other factors that affect how immigrants and their children interact with their own heritage. They want to be praised and lauded for being “inclusive” and “diverse” simply for commodifying a cultural aesthetic. They have no real concern for the people they’re profiting from or their lives and complexities.

So let’s assume for a moment that despite not being affected by any of the factors that I mentioned influenced my own aunt’s lack of educating my cousin about her culture, that’s still an issue that should be addressed specifically in regards to Sabine’s decisions in raising Marinette rather than pushing the blame onto Marinette for “not expressing interest” and learning on her own. The last few times my cousin has come to visit, we do our best to accommodate her and make her as comfortable as possible but when she inevitably lets it show that she is uncomfortable and would prefer to step away from the situation, my aunt has the nerve to shame her for not liking or participating in her culture. I assure you, my aunt was the only one blaming my cousin as we were all silently judging my aunt as she’s obviously the one responsible for it getting to this point, as we have been doing ever since we knew she wasn’t teaching my cousin spanish. So assuming this is the case with Sabine and Marinette, where Sabine had the means to teach Marinette at the very least the basics, and now Sabine is somewhat resentful of Marinette not figuring it out on her own, that is something that definitely needs to be addressed with close attention and care.

But they won’t.

Sabine is not a chinese immigrant in the interest of other chinese immigrants

Marinette is not a white-passing diaspora child in the interest of other white-passing diaspora children

There is no diversity or representation in this show that isn’t meant to turn them into props to make white men look better, be they fictional or real

That is the issue, not the existence of borderline caricature-esque immigrants or white-passing POC in the real world possibly getting representation. It’s not about them, never has been.

random song playing at a cantina, probably in a language sabine mostly understands and ezra most certainly does not

ezra, leaning in: i wrote this one for you

sabine: *eye roll*

on a mission or smthn, having to deal with a terrible singer (who’s clearly never met anyone honest) as they belt out a song for one reason or another

sabine, whispering: hey, ezra.

ezra, clearly suppressing a wince as he listens: yeah?

sabine: this one’s for you.

ezra: *doing that lips-pressed-together thing, eyes beginning to water, refusing to even give her a smile*

FIGURED IT OUT THE COMMENT WAS JUST TOO LONG (there was so much genius to comment on!!!) SO I SUBMITTED IT IN TWO PARTS

🥳🥳🥳

[generalsyndulla]

Honestly I cannot look at this frame because it makes me cry.

Even before Kanan’s death, Hera had been on edge about the safety of Ezra and Sabine. Almost every episode she is seen to be worried and has to be constantly reassured that they’ll be alright. It gets even worse after Kanan’s death and her fear becomes overwhelming that she seeks comfort from the force manifestation of Kanan. So after losing Kanan, after being put in a dire situation with Thrawn (and finding out that she’s pregnant), she can' bare to let Ezra go.

The ironic part is she helped raised him like this! From the very first episode where she tells him “If all you do is fight for your own life, then your life is worth nothing.” He has stopped only fighting for himself and is now fighting to save not only his family but for Lothal - his home. Hera’s words from season one are thrown back to her face as she pleases with him “I won’t let you go.”

To add to the tragedy, Sabine is watching in the background knowing that she has to let Ezra go. She was raised by the same people that taught them both about selfless love and sacrifice. Sabine knows it will break Hera’s heart but she knows and trusts Ezra to make the decisions he feels he needs to make.

I'm the first one to criticise the writing of this show but goddamn I feel like the relationship between Hera and Ezra (though subtle) is one of the best things about the show and the writing.

You don’t understand how devastating I find Shin’s attire . Poor darling is so ragged and has darned and mended the ever-loving hell out of their clothes. And then compare that to anything Sabine or Ahsoka wears.

They have spent so much time on the run, and still take so much pride in their appearance. The little gems in their Padawan braid, the stitching and darning on every part of their outfit, the bleached hair and eyeliner. Idk.

It just makes me tear up at the thought of them finally settling down after weeks without rest , and going through the routine of brushing the bleach on their roots, painting their nails and then sitting down and stitching up the new tears in their clothes.

It’s partly because they need to have some control over some aspect of their life but also because they don’t know the next time they’ll get new clothes.

Crying over the shoulder darning on their cloak

IN ABSOLUTE TEARS, A FLUFFY MESS OF TEARS 🤍💜🧡

This is a very quick little fic (not really edited at all lol). But the idea came to me forever ago and I never got it out on a doc but my brain finally spit it out. Hope you enjoy it (mistakes and all).

Also this is incredibly fluffy and you might cry happy tears.

*ka boom*

A loud crack of thunder rolled across the Lothal sky. Ezra jolted awake at the sound of the thunder but also the sound of the bedroom door opening. As he was gathering his bearings he felt the bed move as his wife Sabine sat up.

“Mama, papa?” a small voice said from the doorway. Ezra couldn’t tell which of the twins it was.

“Come here ad'ika, is your sister with you?” Sabine asked, voice a little deep from sleep.

“Of course” replied the voice, Ezra could now tell it was Ursa, the older of the twins. He heard their little feet pad across the room and then the bed move as two little toddlers climbed in between their parents.

“Papa are you awake?” asked Mira as she settled in next to him.

“I am little love, the storm woke me up too” he replied as he adjusted his position to now accommodate two more bodies in the bed.

“Do you think the baby is awake too?” she asked, referring to the baby that was due any day now.

“Oh he is very much awake ad'ika” Sabine replied, “he is having a dance party on my bladder.” The twins laughed at their mother's response.

Before long the bed moved again as Murley their loth-cat joined the party. Fren, their howler, was fast asleep in the corner with her legs in the air, slightly looking dead. Ezra just chuckled at his little family.

The four of them all got cuddled together and Ezra & Sabine draped their arms across the girls and interlocked their hands. Ezra sent some calming Force energy to his girls so they would be able to get back to sleep with the storm.

As he was drifting off himself, he remembered being alone in the same tower all those years ago when there were these thunderstorms. He was incredibly grateful for whatever force allowed him to now be there with his beautiful wife and children.
