星の砂は、正式には「星砂（ほしずな）」や「有孔貝（ゆうこうがい）」と呼ばれ、海に住む生物の一種である有孔虫の殻が砂浜に打ち上げられたものです。有孔虫はプランクトンを食べて生活する単細胞生物で、殻の表面に無数の小さな穴を持つことから「有孔」という名が付けられました。有孔虫の殻は炭酸カルシウムからできており、死んで海底に沈んだものが波に運ばれて砂浜に打ち上げられ、星の砂となります。星の砂は沖縄やハワイなどの砂浜で見ることができ、その形から「星の砂」や「星砂」と呼ばれて親しまれています。

'Desert hermit Ben Kenobi develops a reputation as a crazy wizard because he keeps talking to thin air.'

No. This is Tatooine, talking to yourself is hardly the weirdest thing they've seen. Ben Kenobi, however, keeps having full on fucking screaming rows with thin air and seemingly gets replies back, which is decidedly a step up.

(They've managed to piece together that a major point of contention is the acquisition and raising of a child? Clearly Ben is a wizard that had a bitter divorce with a desert spirit and is working through a custody dispute)

I think it's funniest if Luke and Anakin have completely opposite opinions on sand actually

Anakin: I don't like sand, it's course and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere UGH

Luke: I like sand. Reminds me of home. The good old days when all I had to worry about was not being allowed to go to tosche station to pick up some power converters :') I would happily take a sand bath

POV: Anakin does something dumb

The only way Padme and Obi-Wan can discipline Anakin for doing dumb things, like jumping out windows, is throwing sand at him. Like how you spritz a cat with water when they misbehave.

i updated my inprnt with recent paintings and quilts i’ve made! lots and lots of niche collections including plankton, star sand, crinoid fossils and bread clips :) everyone on tumblr has been so generous in their support of my art - I am waiting to hear back about an artists residency opportunity I’ve applied for taking place this winter as well as some additional shows, and your support from my loose studio sale has allowed me to deal with application fees so thank you!!

My artwork of Mr. Sands, this time not in the Starshine Legacy art style but in my own, along with a small redesign of how I think he should have looked in SSO after surviving the portal and returning, based on his post-survival design.

Ahsoka: Sand...

Anakin: Yup...

Ahsoka: Instead of telling Padmé you love her for the first time, you said “I hate sand.”

Anakin: Yeah...

Ahsoka:

Anakin:

Ahsoka: How does that happen..?

Anakin, disappointed in himself: I don’t know..
