I am fully on board with Plant Dad Qui-gon (head)canon. Obi-wan is probably not thrilled though.

Duel of the Fates

Been a bit inactive, sorry! These are some TPM sketches I coloured in and thought I'd post them. A little different from my usual stuff (and messier) but I had so much fun putting them together

had a dream last night that i was really hungry and ordered a pizza, and when it arrived i ate a slice so quickly i didn't notice it had pepperoni on (i'm vegetarian) and my response was to log onto dream tumblr and post this meme on my dream blog?? 🍕

Every "cool" clone name should come free with an embarrassing backstory imo. Nobody's gonna reverently call you "Rex" because you did something impressive, I mean, come on

You have to admire her audacity, if nothing else.

[boogabeing]

Literally my favourite thing about Rogue One is that it makes the opening of New Hope so funny. Like, Vader has followed Leia from a planet he just blew up seconds ago and pursued her across the galaxy and then she’s just like: ‘I’m on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan’

Vader: You’re a rebel. I just had a fight with your entire rebel fleet and followed you here. Straight from the rebels. Of which you are a part

Leia: *dramatic gasp* rebel? Me???  I was just passing through. Diplomatically. Thought it was a five-space-ship pile-up or something going on there… 

[hashtagloveloses]

death star plans? on my alderaanian diplomatic mission? it’s more likely than you think

[captainlordauditor]

[jackhawksmoor]

ok but this is like legitimate Canon Improvement because I’d always wondered why Vader was so wildly furious at the start of the movie like “rahhhhh bring me the passengers I WANT THEM ALIVE!!!!” and now I’m like

ohh yeah okay they literally JUST blew up Vader’s base, stole his sh!t, and took off while giving him the finger from the window

[deadcatwithaflamethrower]

while giving him the finger from the window

IT GOT BETTER

[crankynerdgirl]

The other thing is, Leia has been strong with the Force her whole life without really knowing it. Luke is an insanely good shot, an ace pilot, quick with machines. These are the skill he learned growing up. Imagine Darth Vader’s and Padme Amidala’s ACTUAL DAUGHTER being raised as a diplomat and princess. Imagine Bail Organa introducing her to the Rebellion. Imagine the MASSIVE FUCKING LIES she’s told, and how they probably went something like an accidental Jedi Mind Trick for most of her life. And now here’s (secret) Dad, and he ain’t buying it honey. 

[shieldmaiden19]

That^^ addition. I like it.

[cumaeansibyl]

Ooooh, that’s a great addition to my “stormtroopers can’t hit Luke, Leia, or their companions because they’re unconsciously using the Force to protect themselves” headcanon. (Nothing fancy, just enough to make shots go an inch or two wide. But you gotta figure the Empire has all kinds of numbers on their troopers’ accuracy, with specific tech to track performance. I bet the after-action reports on engagements with these two are really interesting.)

For my money Leia’s best moment is when she lies about the location of the rebel base and Tarkin believes her. Doesn’t stop him blowing up Alderaan, but he is so mad when he finds out there’s nothing on Dantooine. You gotta figure Tarkin’s good at seeing through deceptions, or he wouldn’t be where he is… but it’s already pretty much canon that Leia’s Force sensitivity helped her resist torture and mind probing, so I don’t think it’s a stretch to suggest that she gave Tarkin just the slightest nudge toward “she’s telling me the truth.”

edit: I can hear @mackensen quoting Obi-Wan’s line on “the Force can have a strong influence on the weak-minded” at me and I am not saying Tarkin has a weak mind, but a) I didn’t say it was a strong influence either, just a nudge, and b) Tarkin does not expect a teenage girl to lie to his face with the fate of her home planet on the line. He expects her to just tell him where the fucking base is already. That’s not even an unreasonable expectation, but in this case it’s a weak point for her to exploit.

* There's not enough room for me to elaborate on the Small Town Jobs thing for Obi-Wan because it doesn't have to be in a small town? But saying Small Business doesn't capture it either, since librarian falls into this category. It's like. Hallmark Hero jobs. He's just puttering around doing something really low-stakes.

people raised some good questions on that marrocrow post about what vader would think of two inquisitors dating so here's some potential answers <3

[andthepeople]

always funny to remember darth vader is anakin skywalker. the adrenaline junkie chucklefuck who used to dive head first out of speeders and built a pod racer in his yard when he was like six is now upper-middle management for the evil empire. half of his appearances in the original trilogy are Meetings. vader spends like 80% of his time dealing with bureaucratic bullshit. status updates. team meetings. holo-Zooms. budget rundowns. anakin betrayed the jedi and caused the fall of the republic and his punishment is being CC'd on every email forever. and you know what. he would hate that. the punishment fits the criminal

Oscar-winning ‘Star Wars’ editor Marcia Lucas dies at 80

She was also part of the editing team for Martin Scorsese’s 1970s films “Taxi Driver,” “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore” and “New York, New

Marcia Lucas was the editor on 1983’s "Return of the Jedi" and the pre-"Star Wars" George Lucas-directed films "THX 1138" and "American Graffiti."

She was also part of the editing team for director Martin Scorsese’s 1970s films "Taxi Driver," "Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore" and "New York, New York."

Marcia Lucas was often called the unsung hero of "Star Wars," the original film that after sequels, prequels and spinoffs has come to be known by its subtitle, "A New Hope."

She convinced husband George that he should have Obi-Wan Kenobi, played by Alec Guinness, in his light saber battle with Darth Vader and become a spirit guide to Mark Hamill’s Luke Skywalker.

And she had to make sense of the raw footage that could’ve been a mess in the wrong hands, including the climactic rebel attack on the Death Star.

[....]

"Her influence on film is indelible, but those who knew her best will remember the way she made life feel more vivid, more beautiful, more fun, and more full of love," a family statement said. "Her work was known for its emotional intelligence, rhythm, and humanity — a rare ability to find the truth of a scene and bring heart, momentum, and clarity to the screen."

Slobbering my Jewish feelings all over the Jedi again.

I’m tired of seeing new Jedi introduced just for them to be brutally killed soon after.

I want to see Jedi live. Before, during, and after the empire. I want to see Jedi continue to be Jedi, to feel proud and strong due to being Jedi, to not inevitably find that the only way to survive is to leave behind being Jedi forever. I want to see Jedi passing down their culture to the next generation, despite their fears. I want to see Jedi outliving those that would see them destroyed, again, and again, and again. In a world where a living Jedi is more miraculous than a dead one, watching yet another dramatic death doesn’t feel dramatic, or climactic, or interesting. I just feel tired.

I guess in a world where I am alive, I want to see the Jedi alive, 10, 20, 30, 100 years after the empire is gone.
