wish i knew what to do with this helpless frustration i feel every time i see people vilify the jedi for their way of life when the person doing the vilification doesn't even understand them properly. it's one thing to criticize and dislike them if you have an accurate picture of who they were and what they're trying to do vs. hating them because you straight up don't understand them at all 馃槶
#personal#this isn't vagueposting i'm just tired of seeing it every time i go in the tags or on youtube or on ao3#literally if you boil the jedi down to the essentials it's just#''these are psychic empath space wizards wandering around the galaxy trying to establish a higher quality of life for everyone''#a bunch of aragorns except anduril is a beaming blade of plasma#or gandalf with the ability to do backflips#the only hard rule they have is ''thou shalt not add misery to the world where you can remove it''#everything else is just interpretations on that theme#''they're cold and unfeeling and they HATED ANAKIN and BAN LOVE''#like WHERE in the WORLD are you getting this information#WHEREEEEE#SHOW ME YOUR SOURCESSSS#and don't say ''they ban attachments'' without understanding what that MEANS#ATTACHMENTS =/= LOVE#ATTACHMENTS ARE CHAINS THAT YOU USE TO DRAG OTHERS DOWN WITH YOU#YOU KNOW THE SAYING IF YOU LOVE SOMETHING YOU WILL LET IT GO? THAT'S IT. THAT'S ALL IT IS.#and where are u getting that they hated anakin do you think he'd be so torn up about betraying them all in ep 3#if he was surrounded by people who hated him for over a decade like mans was IN TEARS#HE LOVED AND WAS LOVED BY THEM IN TURN#IT JUST WASN'T ENOUGH TO SAVE THEM IN THE END BECAUSE#CRUCIALLY#HIS ATTACHMENT TO PADME DRAGGED HER AND THEM AND EVERYONE ELSE DOWN WITH HIM#stop stripping anakin of his agency he made a CHOICE#star wars is ALL ABOUT CHOICE. THE CHOICE TO FALL IN EP 3. AND THE CHOICE TO RISE AGAIN IN EP 6.#like cmon fellas..... fellas cmon........

okay i put all my cranky thoughts into a separate post that's now drafted and it made me feel better so i'll be able to watch this episode now lol but if it gets me worked up again i'm posting the rant i'm sorry i cannot be helped or changed or saved <3
ANYWAY AHSOKA EP 2
also i forgot to say so last episode but kevin kiner my ABSOLUTE BELOVED the return of the king is real so happy to have you here my dude the ending and full theme was absolutely gorgeous
anywayyyyyy so i am guessing sabine did not make like satine and survived her shish kabobing
well there's ahsoka
oh yeah there's bean she's fine she'll be fine xD
damn filoni really gave more handwaving to having a character survive a major impalement vs me twisting myself into fucking knots writing anakin getting run through lmao
ahsoka sorry but actually i'm gonna blame u for this you still kinda seem like a mess and i don't think you were a very good teacher to sabine and now ur dropping back in on her when she's convenient to you?
well at least we know why she's so adamant against training baby yoda lol
ope here's goth girl and the fuuuuck is his NAME again i keep calling him fucking bryan
i like the fancy sithy-looking sundial tho
pfff second ep is "toil and trouble" guess we're getting witchy!
OH YEAH WAS SABINE'S KITTY OKAY
THEY BETTER BE OKAY
I SWEAR TO GOD
yea ahsoka what happened to showing up in the nick of time and saving kanan and ezra from inquisitors in rebels u were slowwww girlie
OK GOOD THE CAT IS OKAY
that's all that matters
ope one more droid hanging around ezra's place
GIRL UR SITTING UP ALREADY?!
GIRL HOW CAN U BREATHE
we do love the mechanic girl of my heart
sabine does love her explosions
no huyang hera just likes explosions
sabine works best under explosive pressure we LOVE HER
ope back to corellia i guess? we can reuse the old solo sets?
sabine
you were just
impaled
"but she's not the one who needs to hear it right now" ahhh there's the sabine and hera dialogue. ugh but i'm still not used to natasha and mary i can just hear tiya and vanessa doing it instead :(
WHY DO Y'ALL KEEP MAKING SABINE AND AHSOKA ANGRY EXES TF
"ancient ppl from a distant galaxy" waaaaaaait are they bringing in those eu dudes
no wait i think i remember something about these guys that was mention as the big bad in the canceled animated rebels sequel
or it could just be the chiss lmao
that could be it too, makes sense why they'd want thrawn
ok that is some real cool galactic map visuals i am an absolute sucker for a good starmap
ok but wait how the fuck did y'all get a map to thrawn anyway did the space whales write it
also sorry morgan but i don't personally think thrawn would go for u nothing personal you are hot but you don't quite seem his type
waaaait is fucking thrawn gonna have force sensitivity now THAT would be absolutely hilarious and he'd hate it so much
who's marrok i have no memory
y'all you can't just make thrawn work for you didn't he only work with the empire cuz he had to because it would advantage his people somehow (has read zero thrawn novels and only seen rebels)
please tell me sabine is in the fucking vents of ahsoka's ship
THERE'S THE GHOST WHERE IS CHOPPER
I AM NO LONGER FUCKING ASKING
okay so i think my issue with Mary is she doesn't have any of the same authority and purpose Hera's meant to hav
CHOPPER
CHOPPER
MY MURDERBOT
MY SON
MY ANGEL MY EVERYTHING
Anyway
yeah
oh yeah harping in that the new republic is a total fustercluck
ew a capitalist
bro you know hera used to steal from people like you for the rebellion
sdlkfjsdk omg sabine's mom needs to talk to the teacher to keep her from getting expelled
but also y'all sabine is like 25-30 right now she's not a kid
@ ahsoka bitch you have no fuckin clue what you're doing doooon't talk about readiness
y'know maybe the imperial era just advanced medicine so later impalements don't kill people
oh oh so it IS ezra's!
sabine go find luke he'd love to have you
STOP WITH THE GAY DIALOGUE
ok so yeah she likely doesn't have force sensitvity
goddammit huyang neverMIND
so sabine IS force sensitive :) and kanan and ezra just never brought it up :) great :)

i want 8 and 23 for lockup please
Even more Lockup, ma boi, ma creature, ma favorite weirdo <3 this question thingie for anyone that's interested >:D
8. What will always make them smile? What will always make them cry?
uffffffffffff. Aight. The biggest instance I know from the top of my head would be the day that Margo gifted him those black n pink heart earings. She's around 15 at the time and used the bit of her allowance she had and scourged for materials. Margo made them herself, asked Upendo with the how to and her big sister helped her, and she was super nervous about it all, but she wanted to make something special for him. So when she finally presented them to him, she immediately started the whole 'they're nothing special, i can take them back if u don't like them' spiel, and he wordlessly took them and put them in. And Lockup loves them and he told her so and I tell you, the battalion watching the whole thing lost their shit. It's for many one for the first times they really see Lockup genuinely smiling. Lockup holds a very soft spot for Margo and he wants to be the best big brother he can for her. I think I wrote it somewhere, but Lockup's smiles are, most of the time, weird as shit and he tries it in front of a mirror to get used to the feeling, specifically because he wants to be encouraging for Margo. Otherwise, he'll also smile during sparring and fighting, specifically when he holds a lightsaber. He has a lot of fun fighting with those. He also gets a very weird and sorta scary look whenever he gets the chance to be the demolition expert on a mission. My dude loves his explosions. But those are more terrifying than anything else.
On the other hand, he has deeply unsettling breakdowns from time to time. It sometimes occurs when he spends time with others, specifically when other commanders invited him for a night out, when he slowly gets overwhelmed, when he realises just how far he's fallen, how much he's lost within himself, how exhausting it is to fight back against it all. And he'll just sorta stand up, excuse himself for a minute, sit outside and slowly feel everything falling apart. Because he has emotions and he hates how much was taken from him, in how much pain he actually is, how terrified he is. And he'll sit there and cry and wheep and it feels like his heart is being ripped out. Afterwards, he'll wipe his face and tears, wash himself and just, return. It's worst when nobody notices. Jackal picks up on the habit not too long after the start of the war and they start working through it with him, make sure that he knows he can come to them, all that jazz. It helps, but it still sometimes happens. It's difficult, because he'd never let anyone of the battalion see him like that because he's their protector and there are very few people that he trust enough to see him like this. That, and Margo's death hit him hard. It was a very silent thing, his greiving that is. Because she was a child, his baby sister and when they find her, not a single one of the squad she normally comes to fight along side has survived. They practically lost her and all those that you've come to deeply associate with her. That evening he sits alone in his room and mourns all that has been lost under him, mourns the kids who's death he'll always carry on his shoulders, mourns the loss of his smallest sister.
23. Where would they fall on a politeness/rudness scale of 1-10 (1 being the most polite and 10 being the rudest)?
Hm. So. I think would probably be around a 3 in all honesty. That man is blunt as fuck and will insult you if he doesn't like you. I think a good example is when he's together with Anakin because he Does Not like him at all and has made it very clear. So when Anakin comes over with one of his plans, Lockup has told him to shup up, sit down and let him do the thing he was specifically trained for and has very effectively continued to do these past few battles thanks. If he's continuening to him, Lockup will very plainly tell him to shut the fuck up. As he's backed by by his general in these moments, Anakin can only really come and sulk by Jackal but they'll hug him and ask him what he expected. So eh, he would be considered rude, by the simple standard that he doesn't hold back or lie unless it's sorta necessary. Like, he's known to headbutt people for being idiots. So he's not a person to go about insulting anyone he sees and all that, he's just very honest and makes his opinion known if it onfluences him in any way and will continue to do so. It's very funny to watch from the side line. As long as you don't fuck up his day, you're in no danger. Just. Be aware that he can always tear you a new one if he ever wanted to. It's also pretty uncomfortable because he'll look expressionless while doing so, you can't really gauge his feelings unless you reaaally know him. That man is a very funky creature.
