Appreciation post for one of my favorite endings

One of the only show endings that I was genuinely happy with. As bittersweet and devastating as it was, it held depth, meaning, love and hope. It finished off the character arcs wonderfully, fulfilling the show's entire lead up to this point.

People tend to get reduced to someone force sensitive in order to mean something (Rip Finn), but i love how the entire Ghost Crew has meaning, has depth, know what life is about. (Which is why I was mad they made Sabine force sensitive.)(also Ezra and Sabine's friendship means so much to me, both learning about each other's different cultures and holding fast to what is good in it).

Also, found family is my jam, and I love Star Wars: Rebels for embodying it. The final interactions between everyone was done so well.

And the whole theme of love going on. Ugh. So good. Love for your dead parents (sorry), loving an enemy turned ally, loving a pirate who has shown no reason you should trust him but ends up pulling through in the end bc you love, loving your mentor slash father figure, and mentor in turn loving mentee like a son. Romantic love, love between friends, and brotherly love, sisterly love. Knowing that loving someone means you'll tell them when they're wrong and being there to drag them back to the light, it means taking risks and it means sitting patiently in the midst of a storm of uncertainty, it means standing by someone and knowing if they fall, you will be trying to pull them back up, always reaching out a hand. I will always remember this one line that Ezra says to Kanan, thanking him for not just teaching him to be a Jedi, but to be a good person.

This all leads to the final point, the final sacrifice, after all the other sacrifices. Knowing there might be more strife to come, but you are at peace bc you have hope and you have fought for what is good and right and sacrificed your life for it in selflessness, but not your morality and others in selfishness. Having faith in what is good and guiding them to hope as you leave them behind in an act of love.

Love it, love them.

Attention Cavillry! To war I say!

The audacity of these people! "Plague on it!" As often expressed in The Witcher games and novels.

Signs of Lazy Ass Writing 101:

1) Sacrificing Characterization/Backstory Purely for Plot Purposes

2) Throwing together romantic relationships to uplift,draw more attention usually to the male character

3)Reduction of a strong, loveable, favorite, and complex female character to garner more favoritism towards a male character

Please feel free to add more signs to this

Arya’s sex scene reminds us that Game of Thrones will never understand female sexuality

What was missing from Arya and Gendry’s last-minute connection

A great article about everything that was wrong with Arya and Gendry sex scene. I’m so glad some people understand female sexuality, something D&D are not capable of.

Vega, Hercules, Hydra, Wormhole?

Vega: What’s something you’ve done that you wish you hadn’t?

Trust the wrong people. My father, the Paladins. A few just to name. 

Hercules: Favourite instrument?

Oh, now this is hard. I, myself, am not musically talented, but I do find that I enjoy the ukulele and piano. Have you heard of an ocarina? Yes, just like from The Legend of Zelda. Those are delightful to hear. Perhaps I will give one of those a try, though with these large hands, I imagine it would be a little…difficult. 

Hydra: Favourite sound? 

The sleepy sounds my little stars make when cuddled up against me. 

Wormhole: What’s something you wish would happen, but know won’t? 

I wish people would do proper research about abuse victims and quit villainizing them because it is “easy” to label something you do not understand as “evil.”
