society if people remembered that dickbabs literally started when babs was oracle and didn't derail her character or somehow stop her from being oracle or having her own independent stories w/o dick like none of this is saying people have to like the ship but it's straight up stupid to act like it always harmed her character or she can't have her own stories while being in a relationship.
like literally part of the reason i like the ship so much is b/c pre 2011 they both feel very independent and like it's just two competent people having fun together rather than "female character perpetually stuck in love interest role".
and none of this is in defense of w/e is going on in tom taylor's nightwing b/c burnside babs and beyond is unrecognizeable as a character and batgirl new 52 babs is reliant on ableist tropes. its just like. it can exist in canon w/o derailing them b/c it literally already has

Pure rambling, sorry if this doesn't make sense I wrote it at like 2 in the morning. But silly little Anakin character analysis (used lightly)
I've decided I am the only person allowed to talk about Anakin(/j). People either only make him a poor suffering soul who didn't know what he was doing, or a man who was truly born evil. Technically neither is wrong but they aren't mutually exclusive. You can't have one without the other.
I think to fully understand this, we would have to focus on the relationship between the Jedi, the Republic, and Palpatine. The Jedi, over the course of the Clone Wars, became pawns in the Rebpulic’s game. They lost so much of their own freedom, trying to fight for others. They also had to deal with Palpatine constantly interfering with Jedi affairs and vetoing their wanted means of tackling the war. They became so involved with this, they were oblivious to just how serious Anakin and Palpatine’s friendship had become.
With the Jedi aside, Palpatine began to capitalise on Anakin’s fears and wants. Anakin wanted nothing more than for his mother to be free, and for himself to be free. That could happen if he turned to the dark side. Anakin didn’t want to lose more people he loved, he wanted to be fast enough, he needed to be enough. He can bend the forces of life and death with the dark side. There Palpatine was, whispering in Anakin’s ear, fueling his furnace heart, and pushing more fear into the dragon that had scared Anakin for so long.
If Anyone was to blame for Anakin’s failure, for his fall to the dark side, it would be Palpatine. So many people blame the Jedi, blame Obi-Wan, blame Ahsoka for leaving, but that’s missing the point. In Matt Stover's “Revenge of the Sith” novelization, Palpatine speaks “You are the chosen one.” Palpatine leans toward you, eyes clear. Steady. Utterly honest. “Chose by me.” This is insanely important because it shows how Palpatine had been manipulating Anakin, grooming him since he was a child. In the comic series “Obi-Wan & Anakin”, we the reader, see Palpatine oversee Anakin’s training as he takes an interest in him. People talk a lot about how if "Ahsoka didn't leave Anakin wouldn't have fallen", "if Padme was more open", "If Obi-Wan was more understanding", and "if the Jedi were good people". But the person who coaxed him over to the dark side was Palpatine.
Then we have the topic of Padme, Ahsoka, and Obi-Wan. Why didn’t they do anything? First off, I stand by the fact that Ahsoka not leaving the order wouldn’t have fixed anything. Anakin and Ahsoka’s conversation before she ended up leaving, was more so him talking to himself. Anakin had contemplated leaving the order since he was twelve. In the comic “Obi-Wan & Anakin”, they travel to a planet that has been destroyed by war. Within the first issue, Anakin expresses disdain over the fact that neither the Jedi nor the Republic stepped in to help and left the planet to participate in endless war. Anakin mentions leaving the order, and Obi-Wan vocalizes how he would support it.
However, I think Anakin realized, leaving the order would mean returning to life as a slave on Tatooine. His overall goal was to return home and be able to free his mother, but we will touch on that later. Anyways, that being said, I think Ahsoka leaving only added to his abandonment issues, as he viewed her leaving the order as her leaving him. This plays into so many of the interactions he had with other characters.
With Padme, it’s a whole other topic. Was their relationship actually a healthy one? I think most people would be inclined to say yes, they are! They love each other and that’s true but also you have to look at them outside of their love. They didn’t necessarily understand each other. Padme in the later seasons of “The Clone Wars” was becoming more aligned with the separatist ideology. She began to see the flaws and corruption that ran deep into the Republic that Anakin couldn’t see. But they were so obsessed with each other that they chose to ignore these differences. I think one of the main examples of this was probably in “Attack of the Clones”. Padme rather than being concerned over Anakin’s outburst with the Tuskens supported him and “understood” why he did it. She loved him too much to let this get to her. It was why she was fully ready to give up her position as a senator just to be happy with him. In the “Revenge of the Sith” novelization, Matthew Stover writes about their relationship in a different light. It reads much more uncomfortably than it does in the movies. He writes “Anakin couldn’t breath. She wasn’t here, hadn’t come to meet him, over some debate? The Senate. He hated the Senate.”(156-157). Padme is written the same way, on page 161, “For Padme Amidala, saying I am Anakin Skywalker’s wife is saying neither more nor less than I am alive.”. I think this is extremely important in showing the fact that they loved each other so much, that they were each other's downfall. This happens again on Mustafar when they meet their tragic end. Padme was saving him by not joining him, and Anakin was saving her by joining the dark side.
We move on to Obi-Wan and Anakin now. They are two sides of the same coin, they were brothers and Anakin’s most notable betrayal. One of the most notable things about their relationship is two passages from the “Revenge of the Sith” novel. The first reads, “Anakin and Obi-Wan would never fight each other. They couldn’t. They’re a team. They’re the team. And both of them are sure they always will be.”(40). This one is important because it shows that, Obi-Wan and Anakin are important to each other. In their mind they are brothers, they are best friends. They couldn’t hurt each other, they are comfortable with that fact. Now the second passage comes from page 402 and reads, “This was not Sith against Jedi. This was not light against dark or good against evil; it had nothing to do with duty or philosophy, religion or morals. It was Anakin against Obi-Wan. Personally. Just the two of them, and the damage they had done to each other.”. Now, this quote is the total opposite of the first and happens a whole 362 pages later, and it's just as important. It shows Obi-Wan couldn't have said anything to change Anakin’s mind, no matter how hard you wish he could’ve.
In conclusion, so many factors went into why Anakin fell to the dark side and there was genuinely nothing that could’ve been done to stop it. Not only was it the way he interacted with other people but also just his environment. While Anakin may have been a boy who longed to be free and defeat the “dragon” that plagued his nightmares, he was still a man who made his own decisions, selfish or not.

The Force is such an interesting concept. I like the way Matt Stover describes it in his version of Revenge of the Sith.
It flows like water, changing to fit differently for each person. I think it opens a lot of both fluff and angst abilities (wink).
Ahsoka and Anakin are so similar it reflects in their force signatures. They are both raging storms of potential and emotions but Anakin far surpasses her. His will of the force is fueled by fear and anger, like a hurricane. Ahsoka's is a far calmer storm, one more driven by wanting to do more, to BE more.
If you don't know either of them well, you wouldn't be able to tell them apart. Obi-Wan still messes it up.
On days he needs to find Anakin for a meeting with a council, he'll reach out into the force and look for the storm and let it lead him to Anakin. But when he gets there he's met with an upset Ahsoka.
Or
Plo Koon searches for Ahsoka, and he feels the calm storm growing closer. Only to turn and become face-to-face with Anakin returning from a meeting with Senator Amidala.
I just think force signatures are neat.

Most Anti-Jedi people do like the Jedi for weird reasons. No hate because I also don't care for the Jedi but like ah.
A lot of the posts I see are mostly rooted in love for Anakin and how the Jedi caused his downfall because the Jedi "didn't care"(for lack of better examples this is what we are going with). Sure yeah the Jedi could've done better but also their priorities were elsewhere.
During the Clone Wars, there were less than 10,000 Jedi who were dispersed all over the Galaxy because of the war. The Council's focus was not on "saving" their chosen one.
But throughout this time, the Jedi became more of a police force working for the Republic than a group trying to restore peace. They thought they were, but you can tell as the series progresses, more Jedi begin to lose both faith in the Jedi and in the Republic.
This was Palpatine's plan though, to make the Jedi more and more untrustworthy and scary. Let them ruin their own reputation so that when Order 66 happened and the Empire rose to power, people no longer had faith in the Jedi.
I don't know where this was going, but do with this what you will.

I am sick and tired of seeing people talk about the similarities between Anakin and Leia or Luke and Padme. Switch it up!
Talk about how Luke learned to be compassionate and see the good in everyone from Beru. How he got his sense of morality from Owen. Owen and Beru are his parents just as much as Anakin and Padme.
Talk about how Leia's knowledge of politics didn't come from Padme, it came from Bail. How she picked up her fighting spirit, not from Anakin but from Breha. Bail and Breha are her parents just like Padme and Anakin.
Give me angsty fics of them mourning the people who raised them. Talk about Leia mourning her people, her planet, and her parents. Bring up how she wanted what was best for people. How she learned of her mother, far before she learned of her father. How Breha and Bail would speak so kindly of their close friend, how they would take trips to the Naboo burial places.
Talk about Luke mourning his aunt and uncle, reminiscing on his childhood on Tattooine, and the stories he heard of not only Anakin but of Shmi as well. Think about how Owen's hate towards Obi-Wan might of affected both Luke's want to become a Jedi and the amount of faith he put into Obi-Wan.
