NOT to cheapen a beautiful and very emotional scene but I love that Vader just tossed Sidious over a safety railing. You’re so right king he DOSEN’T deserve a climactic 10-minute lightsaber-force-lava-showdown-duel like Obi-Wan did

#this was the final duel that had been prophesied for CENTURIES #I don’t think any ghost Jedi would be ‘disappointed’ in the way it played out considering the context #BUT. if any prequel-era character found out that Anakin would one day defeat the dark by chucking a Sith Lord down an energy well #they’d be like. Yeh. Yeah that tracks #considering the sheer amount of power and skill Anakin possesses I just think it’s funny #star wars #anakin skywalker #Darth Vader #Darth Sidious #sheev palpatine #rotj #return of the Jedi #obi wan kenobi #obi-wan Kenobi

It seems my disappearance from the LiMerge building has finally been noted. It was... expected. How long did it take, between my master noticing and eventually deciding to send assassins after me?

I find myself flattered. Two score mercenaries, a quarter of them force sensitive, and a handful of them mandalorian, beskaryc. If he had come in person, I would have felt it and fled, but that he sent such a strong showing is... oddly touching.

I feel known. Thank you for the fight, my lord. They are dead.

I know Palpatine controlled the courts and all that, but I can’t help but wonder what would have happened if Mace Windu had been about 20% less done and ready to go through one more circus to take down the Sith Lord:

Anakin: He must stand trial!

Mace: He has control of the Senate and the courts. He's too dangerous to be left alive!

Palpatine: I'm too weak. Oh, don't kill me. Please!

Anakin: It's not the Jedi way. He must live!

Mace, having just woken up from the most refreshing nap of his life before Anakin barged in to tell him about the Sith Lord, looking at Anakin, who clearly hasn’t slept in three days and is running off caf and stims; looking back at Palpatine (clearly playing some sort of game), apparently confident Anakin will help him.

Mace: Ugh, fine. Cut his hands off, we’ll take him into Jedi custody.

Anakin: …His hands?

Mace: He killed three Council members in like two seconds! Did you not notice the bodies? We can’t afford him trying to escape at full power! It’s his hands or his head, Skywalker!

(Anakin had not, in fact, noticed the bodies.)

Palpatine: Please! I need my hands to save your wife!

Anakin: !!

Mace: ??

Mace: Your- never mind that! What did he promise you?

Anakin: Padme’s dying! I have to save her!

Mace: Amidala? Why isn’t she with the Healers, then??

Anakin, not listening: I’ve been having these terrible visions! She’s going to die in childbirth!

Mace “I don’t have time to unpack all this”: Anakin! Focus! Help me bring the Sith into custody; then we can get Amidala to the Healers, and whatever Dark influence he had over her will be broken!

Palpatine, who hasn’t actually done anything to Padme, just Anakin, but knows exactly how this looks: Shit.

Anakin, who is a good Jedi outside of Palpatine’s influence, wants nothing more than to end the war so he can sort his personal problems out, and whose only hesitation was over Padme: Palpatine = Sith = Dark --> Dark visions?? = OH

Anakin, happily cutting off Palpatine’s hands: Yes, Master! :D

Promptly runs off to go find Padme.

Palpatine: SHIT

Mace, staring after Anakin in exasperation as he’s left alone in a room with a Sith Lord: Well, I made a promise. Come along, Mister Sith, we’ve got some nice padded Force-proof cells for you. Please try to escape so I can kill you before we get there, it’ll make all our lives much easier.

Would Anakin have killed the younglings if Palpatine hadn’t told him to? No.

Would he have been in the screwed-up mental state required to obey Palpatine without the other messed up things that had happened to him in his childhood and during the Clone Wars? No.

Should he have killed the younglings, given Palpatine’s years of manipulation and all the other problems people had caused for him? Still no! Murder is never okay!

All this to say that there are MULTIPLE causes for Anakin’s fall (moving past just the youngling example). I mean even in real life, since when has any major historical event had just one cause? There’s always like eighty-seven reasons that bleed into each other. Saying Vader was created by One Specific Thing isn’t what the prequels showed us.

Anakin did have long-standing issues with anger and aggression and extreme attachment, and he is responsible for his actions. At the same time, Anakin was not some devil child who was beyond help and 100% destined for evil from the beginning. The Council’s actions/inactions played a role. Shmi’s unfair death played a role. Palpatine’s manipulations, which started at age nine for Anakin, played a role. Anakin’s personal accountability for his fall doesn’t take away from the external causes, nor do the external causes justify Anakin’s crimes.

Anakin’s story isn’t clear cut black-and-white, never has been. And that’s ok :)

Fun fact: Darth Sidious, AKA Palpatine and Petty Bitch Supreme, believed that Sith Lords had long since outgrown the need for lightsabers; instead, he wielded them as a way to mock the Jedi with their signature weapon.

That pettiness was likely at least one reason why Palps built his lightsabers to look like golden dildos.
