Star Wars is my favorite franchise. I also love animals and writing. Feel free to ask me any questions.

A gorgeous commission, titled “Bad Guys Think They’re Good”, I had done by @animaeterna. Be sure to check out her profile and Etsy shop.

That pic is AI and it's strange and a little disturbing that you refuse to see or admit that.

I wasn’t aware it was AI when I first posted it, because the site where I found it said it was real. I admit that I’m not the best at telling real from AI. But after talking to some people (who were willing to be polite), I’ve realized I was wrong about it. Since then, the original post has been edited to remove any tags indicating it was a photo and to include AI tags. Sorry for my mistake.

Palpatine saw Coruscant as a place that could satisfy his darkest desires, and like others, I found that kinda funny (“Hahaha, Palpatine fucking nasty. Hahahaha, gambling. Ahahaha, crazy parties”). But then, I remembered what people like him (extremely powerful people with zero moral inhibition) do in real life. There’s nothing funny about that now.

[cruella1989]

I always simply saw it simply as him now being at the heart of power and control in the galaxy, where he could do his manipulating (as well as illegal things such as murder and blackmail) and eventually take over. I never saw it as funny or nasty.

People Who Understand Palpatine vs People Who Don’t #2

Once again, fandom has such unrecognisable takes on Qui-Gon. I keep coming across AU fan art depicting Qui-Gon in Clone Wars armour. As if Qui-Gon 'I can only protect you, I cannot fight a war for you' Jinn would actually take part in the Clone Wars! First of all, if he'd survived the Duel of the Fates, he very likely would have left the Order not long afterward to train Anakin. And if for whatever reason the Council changed their mind and gave him permission to take on Anakin, then once the war started he wouldn't have stuck around. He would have left the Order rather than fight in that damn war, and he would have taken Anakin along with him.

(There's also the fact that, if Qui-Gon had lived, Dooku might not have gone to the Dark Side, so the whole Clone Wars scenario might have played out differently anyway.)

#I'm sorry but there is no universe in which Qui-Gon is just merrily fighting in the Clone Wars alongside Obi-Wan and Anakin #just no #he'd get the fuck out of there #and hopefully take them along with him (tags via op)

Qui Gon is purposely depicted as different from the Jedi and suited to Ani’s needs. I don’t know why people want to fit him within their normative view of the Jedi. In TPM, he is treated sort of like an outcast; they don’t treat his beliefs with full engagement (further supported by the tales of Jedi downplaying his concerns as imagination). Even his own student sides with the council over him. But he refuses to back down from his convictions. He refuses to believe that a child is intrinsically dangerous.

No, he would not have fallen in rank with the rest of the Jedi when they fully became soldiers of the corrupt senate. Him leaving is more compatible with the information we’ve been given.

His surivival in any AU immensely changes Anakin’s fate too; thus, his survival cannot be treated as a simple addition to the roster of Jedi available. There’s a reason that fight on Naboo is called duel of the fates. Entire timelines of possibilities died with Qui Gon Jinn.

Something I never really noticed about this scene until recently is Anakin grabbing Jar Jar's hand and walking off with him (I guess to go explore).

I mean I know it's not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but I thought it was kinda cute.

"It took decades for Palpatine to become evil"

Literally the first thing he does of note is get someone killed while street racing and not giving a womp rat's ass about it. Teen Palpatine was basically the SW answer to Joffrey Baratheon.

It took decades for him to become the villain we see in movies. What you’re seeing in the incident you mentioned as a troubled youth from a dysfunctional home. But he’s shown to have a conscience and feel guilt for his actions throughout his backstory. The most notable one is when he loses control of his powers and doesn't want to kill his family then continues to feel guilt about it on into adulthood.

“Palpatine stood rooted in place, his hands trembling in front of him and his face stricken. Something stirred behind his incandescent eyes. He heard the pounding on the hatch and whirled. “Don’t come in! Stay away from me!”

{“Now tell me again, Apprentice, and in greater detail.” Once more Sidious allowed his memories to unfold, and he relived the crime— the event as he had come to think of it. His father’s limp and bloody body, the smashed skulls of the bodyguards, his hands around his mother’s slender throat—but not really, only in his mind—strangling her with his thoughts, the lifeless forms of his siblings, slumped here and there. In telling it and telling it, in reliving it, he had finally gained a kind of authority over it; the ability to see the event merely for what it was, without emotion, without judgement. It was as if the event had occurred years, rather the months, earlier.}

“It was Hego Damask as Plagueis who then set his sights on a seemingly confused young man and, with meticulous skill, manipulated him into committing patricide, matricide, and fratricide.”

Thank you for your question.
