The best scene from a World between worlds when Ezra almost find out that Vader Is Anakin before he will frees Lothal

[hurricanek8art]

Okay I'm just. I can't. Hold on. Are people actually saying this is out of character for Sabine?

Sabine Wren?

Have we all been watching the same shows?

Sabine's constantly needed someone to pull her back from making a horrible decision when she's pushed to the edge. Hera, Kanan, heck, even Bo-Katan that one time. BO-KATAN. Y'know, the woman who was famously not great at working through complicated emotional stuff and holding extreme grudges until she started hanging out with Din Djarin? If she hadn't been there, Sabine would've murdered Tiber Saxon in cold blood, no better than the Empire. (yes he was murdering his own people in the name of the Empire and probably deserved it. still doesn't mean he was worth Sabine losing her honor over)

Sabine has been through some horrific stuff. She's been betrayed and broken and left alone again and again, and she's hotheaded and stubborn and proud (so. y'know. Mandalorian) so when she gets pushed to the brink she gets reckless. Every other time this has happened, she's had someone to pull her back from the edge. Well, this time the only three people left that could have done that were either up in orbit in a dogfight, weren't even there or HAD JUST BEEN SHOVED OFF A CLIFF IN FRONT OF SABINE'S OWN EYES.

Yeah, Sabine screwed up. Who wouldn't in her shoes?!

So. The scene with Baylan, and the map. I've seen some mixed reactions to it. I feel a little torn on it myself but overall I feel like it works.

I was mad at Sabine in that moment but not necessarily at the writing because I can understand why she made the choice she did. Natasha Liu Bordizzo made me buy it. The tortured pain in Sabine's face shows she knows it's the wrong decision but she can't help herself.

It felt very Trials of the Darksaber to me. Except, this time, she's ACTUALLY lost her biological family. And her found family. And her "master". She doesn't have Kanan there guiding her, holding her back, helping her work through things. She's alone. And Baylan's manipulating her, pushing all her buttons.

It felt very Sabine like in that moment, for her to be reckless and stupid and selfish. She's lost everything. She's the girl who was broken. Yes, she healed before, but then she was shattered again. She failed. She failed Kanan, failed Ezra, failed Ursa and Alrich and Tristan, failed Ahsoka. And now all she wants is to risk it all for the one person she still has a shot at saving. Is that too much for her to ask?

Ahsoka: What Is The World Between Worlds? - ScreenHub Entertainment

Spoilers for season four of Star Wars Rebels and potentially Ahsoka Ahsoka launched tomorrow with a two-part premiere, so now seems as good a time as any to talk about what very well may be the crutch of this whole show. Ahsoka takes place after the events of The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett, with the former Jedi padawan traveling the galaxy with Sabine Wren in order to put a stop to…

[sabinewren05-blog]

Just some Sabine Edits that I thought would look good here!

[saturn-sends-hugs]

Thanks for the tag, Ace!!

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

... 3... WAIT NO 4 omg ok it's 4. listen I'm a super slow writer and every sentence has to be dragged kicking and screaming out of the recesses of my brain. (the amount of started wips/ideas I have is an entirely different thing, though)

2. What's your total A03 word count?

52,268. Again, don't write much.

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Star Wars (TBB, TCW, and Rebels), Hermitcraft, and the Life Series! (although I'm taking a break from SW rn)

4. What are your top five fics by kudos?

HA top 5, anyway here's all four ranked: (pretty sure I can guess at this lol)

oh! I was wrong actually, first is

1. On the Reg

2. Slow Down

3. Hope is a lie

4. Arc Business

always surprised that people read On the Reg lol

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

YES!!! They're pretty much the main source of motivation for me to continue fics lol, and I love hearing people's thoughts! I know every time I leave a comment and get a response from the author, it always makes me smile too :)

6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Hm well that's tricky, neither of said "angstiest endings" are written yet and the finished fics don't have angsty endings like at all. So I'd say either Slow Down (muahahahaha no spoilers), or surprisingly Arc Business, which is meant to end in a rush to save Echo's life. (Which now that I explain that, it isn't as descriptive as I thought it would be considering how most of my fics go. Huh.)

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

On the Reg!! They all cuddle and take a nap, it's great. And that's probably gonna be the happiest ending I ever write.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

No? I just don't really write ships or anything that clashes with canon or whatever, so it's all pretty tame and people are usually nice :)

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

nO. Absolutely not, nothing whatsoever against anyone that does, but I'm aroace and couldn't if I tried. The most I'll do is make the silly guys kiss, but even then, I'm autistic and will be gritting my teeth through the whole thing (it's for the STORY like it's so much better if they kiss but i don't know how to wRITE THAT)

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

Nope :/

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

No thank goodness (and I'm not sure why anyone would)

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Nope

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

No

14. What's your all-time favorite ship?

if by "all-time favorite ship" you mean "the only ship you would write for" then I'd say Solidaritek (not rpf ofc), but I'll read things like Codywan, Scarian or OC stuff for sure :)

15. What's the WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

oh. oh girl. listen... i have it all mapped out and it's just a matter of motivation, but... Slow Down is so far back on the back burner that I don't know if she's ever getting finished. I'm kinda just waiting for season 3 to come out and drag me into bad batch brainrot again, but until then, I'm taking a break from it. (really, Arc Business is the one I have no intention of really finishing lol)

16. What are your writing strengths?

um. dialogue? I think once I get someone's voice down, I can write pretty convincing banter without it being too far out of character? ofc, that's just in my opinion :D

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

procrastination. motivation, distractions, losing focus, etc etc, basically it takes me eons to write anything and nothing ever gets finished :/

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

If it's a fake/dead language like Mando'a or old Latin, then sure! If it's real, absolutely not, I'm not bilingual and would make a fool of myself if I tried (anyone who can translate/write in another language is an absolute god)

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Star wars :) On the Reg was literally the first piece of fanfic I ever wrote (yes I'm that new to this lol)

20. Favorite fic you've ever written?

Oh it's gotta be Slow Down, I'm super proud of that one and I like where the story is going so yeah! I feel like I made a lot of progress from my earlier works to there, and I think it shows :)

woooo this one was fun! no pressure tags: @floundrickthewayfarer and @inkstainedhandswithrings

OH MY GOSH THATS WHY WE SAW HER WALKING BACK INTO THE TEMPLE

AHSOKA DID LIVE

[doggiez101]

....what?

[lxia-art]

@/lucasfilms please dont throw away a good character p l e a s e

I’m really afraid that season 4 of star wars rebels is just gonna... not acknowledge him and I’m afraid

[dynamicdiplomacy]

The end of the episode of Rebels left both @theabominableblogger and I sobbing. It was awful.

[codenamethebird]

Just Finished Star Wars Rebels

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

SPOILERS SO MANY SPOILERS

I just i just i just, my heart is literally pounding my fingers as i type this are shaking holy shit holy shit holy shit.

Baby Kanera, Kalluzeb basically being canon I mean honorary Lasat and that shoulder hug I'm living. Rex is cannonically the dude at the battle of Endor and that was totally Sabezra.

AHSOKA WAS LOOKING FINE IN THAT CLOAK GOD DAMN SHE LITERALLY LOOKS LIKE A GODDESSS AND EZRA LIVVVVEEEEEESSSSSS (sort of he definitely has to be alive they wouldn't have that sort of ending and have him not be alive)

Also I just realized as I'm typing this Ahsoka is alive past Endor meaning that she can interact with Luke and Leia and I'm living what a time to be alive. I'm literally going to to watch that ending cause fuck what a finale.

[beasanfi1997]

I would like to see the photo of Hayden Christensen and Mena Massoud or even with Matt Lanter and Taylor Gray at the premier of Star Wars because First i see Anakin Skywalker from original Trilogy to Clone Wars when i was kid and then i see Ezra Bridger until i find out that he was Born in Empire Day when i was 17 years old and now for nine years i would like to see Darth Vader and baby Ezra in Bad Batch Just like Maleficent and Baby Aurora in Maleficent movie because Maleficent and Star Wars Rebels were both released in 2014 and now too i would like to see Anakin's Ghost that he told at Ezra to return on Chandrilla because his Ghost Crew, including Sabine Wren(now the wife of Ezra) and Ben Solo(the grandson of Anakin), were worried about him in Ahsoka series.....

I realize why Ezra won't to celebrate the 50th birthday of Anakin, because he was afraid for the future of Ben(that i remember when i saw Force Awakens and finding out that Ben was the grandson of Anakin) and Is that because Ezra tried to run away from Chandrilla and because Ezra Remember that Thrawn told him that Vader Is Anakin After he frees Lothal nine years ago.

[sotangledupinit]

Hey in "The Occupation" when Ezra and Sabine are leaving Old Joe's place after hearing his fate, is she holding his hand to calm him down? asking for science.

[emilyelizabethfowl]

In an interview Dave Filoni revealed what he thinks is Agent Kallus’ name, and it couldn’t have been more fitting! 

Alexsandr, variation of Alexander, (Αλεξανδρος), coming from Greek αλεξω, meaning “to defend, help" and ανηρ meaning "man".

[grizabellasolo]

oh

Oh

OH

Omg I live for this subject.

I am a diehard Star Wars fan. OT, PT, ST, all the add ons, I LIVE for it.

Star Wars has become my salvation for my mental health—and the cause of much of my non social anxiety.

Vader’s “origin story”, aka the prequel trilogy, was a cheap ploy to make us sympathize with him. Between Episodes 2 and 3, there is a series called The Clone Wars.

Okay so for those that aren’t aware, the clone army was created from the genes of Jango Fett in exchange for him getting a clone to raise himself (Boba Fett). 99% of the clone army are POC: Jango is played by Temuera Morrison, a Maori actor so all the clones are based off of him.

In Episode 3, this is evident.

In the Clone Wars, it is LESS evident because of whitewashing.

Bear with me, I’m making a point here, I promise.

Star Wars has a...weird history with villains.

Agent Kallus from Star Wars Rebels started off as an Imperial Agent and committed a great deal of atrocities, including but not limited to the annihilation of the entire Lasat species (Garazeb “Zeb” Ourelios is a Lasat). Kallus went on to spy for the Republic and eventually was redeemed and accepted into the Rebel enclave. Kallus shows immense remorse for his actions in ending the Lasat species. There was even a part at the end of the series where Zeb takes Kallus to see the Lasats he’s run into to prove he didn’t exterminate the species.

Darth Child Murdering Wife Strangling Vader. Where to begin. Just...Everything about him and his origin story irks me. From the slavery thing to the “is padme alright” horseshit. Like...what the fuck, yo. But even after all the atrocities he’s committed, the billions he’s actively taken part in killing, VADER WAS REDEEMED.

Still with me? Cool. Cuz this part is controversial.

Kylo Ren, AKA Ben Solo, can be argued to be the most popular character of the ST series. He is a complicated character, extremely so. In the canon books, he was born when the Empire fell.

Also in the books, the thought-deceased Palpatine had been influencing Ben to the dark side since Ben was in the womb.

Leia and Han were not...attentive parents. Leia was ridiculously busy with government and Han was in over his head. Luke was the classic example of “push too hard and the kid goes where you don’t want him to go”. Ben was raised by droids, essentially.

After the Jedi temple he was training at was destroyed (shown in comics that he didn’t do it), Ben just ghosted over to the dark side.

Ben is coded as an abuse victim from the books onward. It is less evident in the movies.

Was Ben redeemed?

NO. Ben was killed after the battle with the Emperor.

And that’s the end of the Skywalkers.

***WARNING SPOILERS FOR BAD BATCH SERIES FOLLOW***

So back to clones etc.

For those not aware, Clone Force 99 aka The Bad Batch is a group of four clones with enhanced skills.

Hunter: tracking, heightened sense of smell and sight.

Wrecker: big dude, strong guy.

Tech: basically a nerd.

Crosshair: marksman

Mutations resulted in different appearances for them but they still look white.

In Season 7 of clone wars (tissue worthy), the bad batch rescues Echo, who was presumed dead two years prior. Echo is only physically modified: he lost both legs and his right arm below the elbow.

In the season premier, Crosshair goes over to the dark side—but he did not make the choice to go.

All clones had a chip imbedded in their brains so they could be controlled by the emperor. When Palpy gave the word, all the clones with functioning chips (another story) rose up and killed Jedi.

The Bad Batch is an exception: their chips were allegedly nonfunctional due to their enhanced abilities.

Except for Crosshair. When the bad batch was detained, Crosshair was taken and the behavior favoring imperial orders was enhanced.

So not only was Crosshair FORCED to become a villain, he was forced to follow imperial orders and fire on his teammates.

We don’t know if Crosshair is to be redeemed: it’s only episode 3 out of 16.

But Star Wars has a shitty history of maltreatment towards abuse victims and mentally ill victims so I am not optimistic.

In this essay I will—
