i'm always so excited to meet star wars fans whose favourite characters are like, either minor characters or characters who just don't get the same hype as say, the main three or five in all the movies or tv shows.

like cool, i'm glad you like obi-wan, so cool that you like luthen. oh of course you like ahsoka.

anyway, which of you fuckers are crying, screaming and throwing up about depa bilaba? or brasso? hell, anyone have big feelings about vail tormin? any breha organa fans in the house tonight?

tell me in the tags who your favourite star wars character is but ONLY if they're not considered a main character

i think it’s really cool that wrecker is like. hunter’s ride or die for most of the show. even in clone wars, bro just listens to him and respects him at all times. “wrecker DROP HIM” and he does. season one episode one, when hunter goes after caleb and the other troopers show up saying they have orders from the supreme chancellor, but wrecker blocks them and goes “hunter’s HANDLING IT”

lots of other examples throughout season 1 and 2, and even in the sanctuary book apparently (i haven’t read it yet but i’ve seen bits and snippets), where wrecker listens to hunter pretty much no matter what. sure he’ll do a little bro complaint or something, but he trusts and respects hunter completely. if he tells him to do something, he’s going to do it.

then season 2 finale happens. and in season 3, we see that actually change.

he’s questioning hunter. telling him to stop and think. yea, he still trusts him and follows orders, but there’s doubt now. and not because he thinks hunter is at fault for what happened to tech and omega, but because that event probably brought so much doubt and anxiousness where before he had only had very little. he was always a very confident person, and so much of that is shattered after they lose tech.

Is anyone else getting "Is there anything so undoing as a daughter?" vibes here? Just me?

i grieve rook's death, but i think it was as necessary for maul to lose her as it was for devon to lose daki. throughout the show we see her remind maul more and more about the duties he's neglecting as their leader. as much as the truth hurts for maul, her honestly brings his flaws to light. she tells him, "this apprentice. i fear she's clouding your judgement," and she's right. just before that was when he brought devon and rylee to his base, and he chased after them -- despite that he had told them they could leave -- despite that he and rook agreed to go before the empire discovered them.

even before that, rook was transparent with maul about his choice to pursue devon. "is this about the girl? she tried to kill you." and maul gets defensive: "stick to the plan." when rook questions why maul is choosing to save devon from marrok, he says, "she need only prove her resilience, and she will find me her ally." he really seethes that last word, and it almost looks like he glares at her, too.

i don't think he liked that rook was questioning his decisions; she's always been loyal to him. but rook's loyalty isn't simply because he's maul: it's because he's the leader of mandalore and the shadow collective. he should act as such. and when he strays, she's there to advise him.

that anchor is gone now that rook is dead. maul is alone. the rest of the shadow collective died with her. he has no one -- except for devon. and since daki is gone, there is no one else for devon to go to for guidance except for maul. they've both lost the one person who cautioned them of the consequences their relationship could bring. there is no one left to stop maul from completely devoting himself to devon, and there is no one left to stop devon from embracing the dark side.

i've seen ppl argue that rook's death was solely for shock value, but i think if that were the case they would have used vario instead. i think everyone would've been happier if vario died instead of rook -- instead of icarus -- instead of spybot -- instead of scorn. but maul has to lose pieces of himself to become more reliant on devon.

i don't think it's too outrageous to say that devon will become his other half, either. maul gives her a part of his lightsaber to use. they are two halves of the same weapon. but we see that maul has lost that half in rebels. maul will lose devon, just like he's lost everyone else.
