#using the force

the aggressive tapping is everything

She fell.

One spilt second of horror, then Obi-Wan plunged into the Force.

It was thick, and grey, and suffocating, as it had been ever since that calamitous day on Mustaphar. He floundered for a moment, adrift and bewildered. Then the tiniest pinprick of light, and he dove after it.

It was like swimming through concrete. Every muscle and sinew of his body, every shred of his mind and heart strained after the light. He reached for it with everything he had, and he could draw no closer.

Let go.

He didn’t hear the words. He didn’t even feel them, he just knew them deep in his soul. For the briefest of moments he felt a breath of reassurance that he hadn’t felt since - 

Obi-Wan let go, and the pinprick blossomed into a radiance that lit up his soul. Just for an instant the shadows were gone, and all was blazing, glorious Light.

The moment passed almost before it had begun, and he opened his eyes in time to see the exact moment when terror turned to shock in Leia’s face. Slowed by the power of the Force that flowed through him and from him, she drifted slowly towards the pavement and was gently laid on the ground.

The moment Leia touched the ground, the power of the Force left him and he was flat and hollow once again. But something had changed.

Because Obi-Wan knew with every fibre of his worn and weary being that he would do anything for this child.

He had found the anchor of his heart, and no matter what the future held he would never truly be adrift again.

Personally, I love this part.

Every time I watch this particular scene in TLJ I get emotional. We see Leia using the force to save herself, come on.

And Leia’s theme in the background is what tugs at the heart strings. Every time.

Ahsoka and the Raada natives are caught at gunpoint by stormtroopers that don’t seem to be in the mood to take prisoners. Ahsoka takes a moment to think her way out of this.

Obi-Wan would have had a clever remark in this situation, something that belied the danger of the moment and confused his adversaries into doubting themselves.

 Anakin wouldn’t have surrendered in the first place.

 Ahsoka usually fell somewhere between the two, but right now she didn’t have the luxury of deliberation.

One of natives, Hoban, throws himself in front of the stormtroopers before she can finish her thought. They tear him down with blaster bolts and Ahsoka finally decides that enough is enough, she’s tired of these mother-fucking troopers on this mother-fucking moon.

For the first time in too long, she felt the full power of the Force flow through her, and she welcomed it.

Blasters flew backward through the air, some even dragging the stormtroopers who held them. Metal screamed as it was bent away from her and her friends, and even the ground seemed to shift as Ahsoka pushed the Imperial firing line back. The lieutenant gaped at her, staggering as if someone had struck her across the face.

After 161 pages, Ahsoka finally uses the Force. AND I LOVE IT. She is so powerful, the ground shakes when she calls the Force to her. I pity the stormtroopers that crossed her. Those bent blasters definitely aren’t regulation.
