LUKE SKYWALKER FOR BLORBO BINGO
Hello!!! Thank you I have to say I love your sound effects
BLORBO BINGO: LUKE SKYWALKER
Tumblr media
Luke Skywalker!!! Luke is so much to me. In the same way that these are the movies ever, (literally they changed the course of history indelibly), Luke Skywalker is the most main character to ever main character. He's the embodiment of hope for so many generations and is a superb example of a chivalric hero, acting out of hope and love, but he's also reckless as hell and insanely durable and makes morbid comments mostly to himself and goes through a character arc so intensely that it nearly makes him unrecognizable from how we knew him and changed the galaxy forever.
Changed the galaxy forever for good. Luke Skywalker bore witness to the truest dark, he saw the darkest parts of the universe and waded knee-deep in them, and then stepped out. He said, "I choose my friends and what I believe in. I'd rather die before I let myself become you."
When told his fate by two opposing advisors, he chose neither, and wrote his own fate according to what he felt was most true. In doing so, he saved the galaxy, and arguably more important to Luke, his father's soul. SUCH A GUY!!!!
Luke is so peculiar to me. <- referring here to my star wars hyperfixation. Because I was born at a time where I have never not had Star Wars in my life. I can't recall a time not knowing Star Wars in some way shape or form. It's a large portion of my childhood, which is something that can be said by so many people-- I feel that that's just a statement that displays how impactful Star Wars, and Luke Skywalker the Guy of All Time, was to children, and even adults, as a hero, and how he/SW endures.
It's peculiar to me because there are two Lukes in my mind. One is the fandom one I brush shoulders with every once in a while, and one is the one from my childhood. That Luke Skywalker lives with me, representative of every childhood hope and ideal. Luke Skywalker, truly, feels like an old friend.
