the way Will finds out about his powers much later than his sister (eleven) the same way princess leia didn’t “unlock” the force until much later in her life... and luke spends his life seeking independence and a means to strengthen his powers the same way in which el does. the way Will- I mean princess leia ends up with the powerless grunt (cough cough Mike) while her brother (el) ends up in peaceful solitude (#singlegirlboss…with friends and family obviously)
also leia needed to accept herself and her lineage before she could use the force…will needed to accept himself…both needed to realise that they are inherently good…
what do you mean they dropped a surprise animal crossing update out of nowhere after saying they wouldn't do anymore free updates. WHAT DO YOU MEAN they just casually dropped multiple crafting without even mentioning it. what do you mean we have creative mode AND have multiple save slots that we can decorate with friends now. and resetti has a new job where he literally helps reset and flatten your island. never kill yourself
i always get a rush of serotonin when i see your art, doubly so if it's anything with Ahsoka and/or Satine. just wanted you to know :) thanks for sharing your work with us.
aw thank you!!! honestly ahsoka and satine's dynamic is so fun and underrated, like ahsoka is basically satine's ex-tragic-shakespearean-style-situationship's niece and ahsoka has NO idea lmao
You know who does not need to eat nor sleep, nor HAS any punny flesh bag emotions to hurt?
Bots! And Droids are far more advanced. Granted, they have emotions. But to attack THOSE, you'd have to actually be someone they give a shit about.
Why do I ask this~☆?
Because! As I have seen mentioned in several Fics. The Jedi have a PR problem. A serious one. In that? While they DO manage their PR on the "don't offend or hurt anybody, maintain good relations" front? They don't do NEARLY enough OUTREACH.
At least, not non-"heres our newest food bank!/free clinic!" Outreach.
Guys.... guys, please. People think you're Suspicious Space Wizards who only ever show up when everything about to GO TO SHIT(because it usually does. Granted, correlation is not causation, but YOU trying telling people that!)
They need WHIMSY! They need WEIRD. Need Relatable Content and Blorbo-From-My-Space-Religion! For FUCKS SAKE! Yoda ALONE is a gold mine! Just? Make an account. And post the Weird Yoda-ism of the day. Let everyone try to puzzle it out! Or perhaps today is a Yoda Fact day! Like:
"Did you know? When Yoda was 463, he spent four weeks forcibly adopted by the royal aunt of _____ because she thought he was a toddler?" *picture of a younger, amused if exasperated, Master Yoda in toddler clothing in the lap of a very wealthy looking royal*
They have SO MUCH history! Weird Force shit! Poets and gifts from thankful peoples! By the time they RUN OUT of shit to post? They will have replaced it all with ANOTHER few millennium of content to post!
Memes. Cultural touch stones! Discussion, songs, and STORIES!
Become inescapable.
The Sith Plan should be FUCKED through the sheer power of OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE. Through para-social relationships tied so deep into the galaxies BONES, that an attack on the Jedi? Feels fuckin PERSONAL. How DARE you attack US? That is MY friend. MY beloved jedi order! They are GOOD people!
Propaganda goes both ways, fuck face! And?
Droids Don't Sleep.
So, consider! Lil baby Oc. Let's call um Cassandra, because they see the future and KNOW nobody will listen. Except.... except? Droids are Nobody. The great, unseen, omnipresent Serving Class. Slaves unto even the slaves themselves. They are both great and small. Mighty and weak. And they? Will believe you.
You have a problem? They do not ask if it is possible. Demand you explain HOW or WHY, proclaim it can not BE! No. The ask "what are the options? What is most efficient? What is your programming capable off? And do you require assistance?"
Droid are our friend. And they? They WILL be free.
(Isn't it great? How DEEP the temple goes? No one really checks what's STORED or LIVING down there. Not if they can't SENSE any "life" puttering around. How convenient, then, that droids DONT giving off any "life signs" in the Force~!)
You can get BROKEN droids for cheap! No one really WANTS them. And, yeah, as a youngling? It's all but impossible to obtain those droids. Seeing as how the re-seller is OUTSIDE the Temple. But?
*pop!*
One restraining bolt! Twoooo~ Restrain Bolt~! Threeeee~☆!*popping noises!*
No Master! She has NO idea where those Droids, legally mandated to wear slavery devices, now FREE of those devices for some unknown and mysterious reason, have wandered off too! *blinks innocently* *no one believes her, because of course they don't, they can literally sense she's fuckin lying* (but also like? Ffs kid. We needed those droids for out ships and general maintenance. We appreciate that you feel strongly about Droid Rights and many of us support you, but in the MIDDLE OF A WORK DAY!?) (With all due respect, not that I admit to anything, EVERY HOUR is a work hour. This is a 24 hour hanger. There is NEVER a "good time" for revolution.)
(This is why they don't let kids into their fuckin hanger. Swear to the Stars. Creche Master! Come pick up your Revolutionary! She's causing PROBLEMS!)
And like? AFTER the inevitable lectures on "respecting the law"(lol) and Safety (she rejects the very premise. Her Comrades have a right to be people, "safe" or otherwise. She will simply react accordingly. But... yeah, she concedes she should not be "playing" in a busy hanger. That IS no place for a small child.) Then accepts her punishments(with a mixed amount of grace.)?
THEN! Project: Game The System, Obtain Comrades! Is a Goooooo!
Her new Droid friends know ALL sorts of dubiously legal establishments! AND they have Holo sites! For ease of gambling! (≖⩊≖) Convenient~☆ hehehehe
Why YES! She is Totally Adult Legal Age Woman! She would like to gamble this *scrounges up a small pile of credits her Droid friends brought her from the various returning from Missions Ships and a single VERY victorious mouse Droid that managed to get to the senate and back.* (Ask M0u5eThunDer no questions and they'll tell you no Senators they Robbed! They are GLORY!!! :D )
Does she fuckin CHEAT? Yes.
Yes, she does.
And YES, she IS aware this is EXPLICITLY illegal. And that criminals WOULD have her head for it. That's why she loses a few. AND, let's herself be "ripped off" by accepting payment in droids(or parts) instead of credits. She's some sort of Coruscant eccentric, you see. More money then sense. They get those, from time to time. She's CLEARLY a hoarder but, really, what do they care? It's a great way to offload junk droids! Isn't it?
Yeah. It sure is~
They get loaded up. Scanned to hell and back for trackers. Then shipped down and down and DOWN to a lesser known side dock of the temple. Where the droids THERE receive them. Then they are sorted by models and damage. Needed repairs etc. Brought UP to the... Theoretical Engineering Club House. Because every droid needs T.E.C.H.!
What do they DO there? Why? What're you, a cop? What's with all the QUESTIONS, huh? Gonna rat them out to the Council? The fuckin Senate?? Fuck off, maybe! *bars the door*
The TOTALLY LEGAL goings on? Of Cassandra's friends and allies? May or may not be in pursuit of the mission statement that "Droid CAN be Jedi and SHOULD be free, even if they can never touch the Force." Because Force damn it, they ALL remember that it was a DROID who helped them construct their lightsaber! And is he not a member of this order?? There's a manifesto floating around somewhere. It was very inspiring. ദ്ദി ˉ꒳ˉ )
Course once her friends are fixed up? Then crave that sweet, sweet Achievable Task to get to work on. Something to DO and Succeed At. A droid at rest? Is a sad droid. If you don't find them something to do? They WILL find something for themselves!
Luckily? She has the PERFECT project.
Her Anti-Sith, Pro Jedi PR Project!
Objectives? Teach everyone both "What A Sith Is" and "why they objectively sucked n were lil bitch babies". And? Spread the Good Word of the Light Side!
With that in mind? She gets everyone downloading cultural packets and PR packets etc like mad. Language modules. Etiquette. Sets some of her friends to looking for what the major AND biggest of the minor social media's are. What languages they are in.
Makes sure EVERYONE has downloaded millennium of Propoganda studies and can share it. Heck, she asks TECH to set up a shared data base for them to reference, so they can store MORE if they want too. (TECH relish the challenge.)
The "Bots"? Roll out with the Force of a Supernova hitting a planet unprepared.
Assholes EVERYWHERE are unprepared. It's the stuff of legends. Oh? You think Jedi are unfeeling child stealing monsters? You are wrong. *posts evidence* *they try and argue* No, you are still wrong. *doesn't get upset, breaks down each point. Is generally very kind even as they lose their shit. Calm but relentless even after they have spent DAYS arguing*
Cause like? It's a droid on the other side. They literally CAN do this all day. And night. And week, honestly. Want some more sources? Here's a paper on the subject. You seem very stressed. Would you also like some deep breathing exercises? (Maybe don't be such a vile lil shit to people.)
And just? Half the reason people have trouble identifying with the Jedi? Is because they're far away and someone else. But! *posts in YOUR native language which fuckin NOBODY outside of your sector speaks* *posts a picture of one of YOUR people, who was a Jedi until about X number of years ago* *you log in for the post of the day about Master Jusikks, the Jedi From YOUR planet, and the various adventures they went on/things they accomplished/art they created etc.*
Or like? You load up the Offical Jedi Art Gallery account. To see which artist they're highlighting today. They always post links to more of each work, style, planet etc. Tutorials too! It's been GREAT for inspiration. And... ooooooh, you really like the use of color and light on this one... natural dyes you say? Poisonous?! Oh, cool!
Quote of the Day accounts. Memes. AMAs. Translation of OLD old poetry along side highlighting modern poets. Posting old Crecheling Plays (now that all Crechelings involved are either adults or have passed on, so no children are being exposed to the horror pit that is the wider holonet).
For that matter, Jedi Babies through the ages! Cute baby and child videos, Padawan mischief, from those long gone. It probably both delights and makes certain long lived Masters cry.
Of course, the ACTUAL Jedi Order PR team? Is 👌 this close to day drinking. Chaos. Chaos EVERYWHERE. The senate is both screaming and threatening them. Whining like a toddler with a blaster. How DARE they be PEOPLE. Wah wah wah.
It's not THEM! Yes, they are AWARE it must be a jedi! They are LOOKING INTO IT! Stop CALLING EVERY FIVE MINUTES!
But THEN? It... starts helping the Order. Noticeably.
Several Knights come back ALIVE that otherwise would NOT HAVE, all because locals saw them about to walk into a trap... a cared enough about the jedi to STOP THEM. At great risk to themselves no less.
And THEN? A pirate crew? Fuckin hijacks a slaver ship, because they heard RUMORS that a captured padawn might be on board. The order only got that child BACK because the pirates? Apparently find padawn "jedi babies" videos entertaining.
And on and on it goes.
Little dividends. Tiny bits of good.
More parents deciding "you know what? Yes actually. I DO trust the jedi with my child." More people KNOWING they can report problems DIRECTLY to the jedi. Less misinformation, getting Jedi killed. Greater trust. Greater Light.
Other Force Sects following their example. Spreading even MORE light. MORE laughter. The Force getting... brighter? Huh. This must be the way.
A senator seething. His visions of sitting upon a throne in jeopardy. His greed and hate endless. Naboo under blockade!
But do the people call on the SENATE? Fuck no. They move like sludge. Thousands of messages to every force sect in the galaxy. Someone will answer. If not the Jedi? The Sages. In not the Sages? Maybe a Goran or a Priest or a Sister of the-*ding!* oh, hey! *TECH has sent you Schematics!*
*Naboolian has obtained Droidpopper! Naboolian LOVES Droid Popper!*
(RIP their toaster. You will be missed)
And like? One flow chart later? Oh hey... these are SHIT. It's a hive system! Give them like.....half an hour? Hour and a half? You'll need to find a good computer and a signal booster. Buuuuut.... *un-battle droids your capital* enjoy your free paper weights!*
(Amazing what over a decade of hard core, all in, so cutting edge the air itself BLEEDS, droid research and practice can do! Get FUCKED techno union, you HACKS!)
Which? Thank FUCK. Because timely Droid shut downs? Mean the SECURITY team was able to rush to help those Jedi that came at the Chancellor's request. Their medic is able to stablize the older one enough to move, quickly, to a surgery suite. It's touch and go... but he makes it.
And like? No exposing itty bitty baby jedi to the media! Thankfully, they can put their security team and head engineers on the stage as "Heros of Naboo". Maybe have a private ceremony for the jedi, as they culturally prefer. (According to their holo net accounts). Which? Whoops! No convenient opening for Palpatine to talk to the young force sensitive child! He's glued to his Older Padawan Brother's side.
Who would spot THAT subversive shit a mile away!
And!!
The best part of all this? Is that the interHolonet is forever. Reaches FAR beyond the High Council's reach. Which MEANS? If SOMEONE? Were to, say, load up an account with a "jedi lessons" of the day? One could? Theoretically~☆? Become a Jedi ANYWHERE.
Did YOU no get found until you mid teens? Or at all? Are you even Force Sensitive? Wanna Be A Jedi Anyway?? Well! With these posts, you too can follow along in learning the ideology and teachings of the Order! Wether the Council recognizes you or NOT! It's a belief and a calling! So literally no one CAN stop you from committing yourself! Laws and councils be damned!
✨️◝(˶ˆ꒳ˆ˵)◜✨️
Cassandra? Is a trouble maker™. And no she will no be stopping. Can't kill us if we're EVERWHERE, mother fuckers! Fufufufu~ she out here doing the exact opposite of gate keeping. She has both removed the gate AND put up streamers. Everybody welcome! She wants enough Jedi to slam that fuck to the mats from ORBIT! No force like OVERWHELMING FORCE!!!
Light Side gonna be WINNING THIS WAR, SITH-Y BITCH!
been thinking abt 1670 s2 and something that i just love so much is how they made all the Adamczewski Juniors so much more like their dad. Stanisław is obviously The Most Jan Pawełed out of all of them (and he knows that!!!!!!!!!!) but Aniela and her high horse bullshit in Turkey + Jakub and his ambitions to be the first polish pope had me in fucking stitches like yeah those are his kids. yep he made them
I do like that Morgan and Karadec are autism 4 autism. He’s the “there are rules and they must be followed” type and she’s the “your social convention is meaningless to me” type. ❤️
I love High Potential as a whole but especially for their portrayal of family.
Morgan having such a healthy relationship with her ex (Ludo, I love you so much), him being there for her and the kids, and loving all three kids equally is so refreshing to see.
They could've easily gone the "my ex is a douche" route but they didn't. They give us all these wholesome family scenes every week.
A lot of watching ENT is going “y’know what Enterprise? Fuck yeah” because they just did shit. Oh yeah that species is like straight up bugs. That one procreates through putting their hands in a bunch of marbles and then Trip the human man got pregnant. Denobulans live healthy poly lives with so many fucking kids. We got a Vulcan hooked on drugs. Archer has a dog. The British Navy still exists. We got Jeffery Combs to get full body painted and sit for prosthetics again and he kills it.
