warning: HUGE NERD

you can call me Morai/Owl. she/her, in my 20’s. i made this side blog specifically so I wouldn’t annoy my followers with Star Wars spam :p || AO3: Ghost_Owl || background art by @wrenvibes!

[twilightofthe]

Figured I should make an about me!

⭐️ Star Wars Blog where my tagging system makes no sense, I have cute names for a couple people and the rest are random

⭐️ I’m Ghost_Owl on AO3, you can find my SW fanfics there, or under my ‘#morai’s fic’ tag here on Tumblr

⭐️ There is to be NO SHIP HATE on this here blog! Idc WHAT you ship, you’re welcome here. I personally post Obikin which I know isn’t some people’s thing, I tag Obikin posts with ‘#team hot mess’, which is not to be confused with my general Anakin tag ‘one (1) hot mess’ (yes I did not think that through, I am Sorry)

⭐️ (farther back towards the beginning of the blog before I started watching myself I might have like five to ten personal posts clowning on ships that aren’t my cup of tea, please do remember those are just my opinions and I don’t mean anything against you <3)(basically when I started this blog I was still growing out of my anti phase and the tendency to be publicly rude about ships I didn’t like, and while I’ve tried to scrub all that shit, I might have missed some, so my apologies if you see any negativity!)

⭐️ My asks and DMs are always open, but Tungle dot heck doesn’t always give me notifs because this is a sideblog and life is a fucking nightmare. I also have ADHD, so I PROMISE if you send an ask and I don’t answer it, I either didn’t get the notification or I did and I meant to reply but just forgot, in which case please poke at me again with your question and I’ll get back to you!

this is genuinely so funny to me because in spite of what the antis like to claim, i am aware obikin is not in fact a canon ship (as if that has ever mattered when it comes to shipping lol are you guys brand new to the concept of fandom????). but it is really interesting because i feel like obikin exists as a nebulous third thing where it’s not entirely a fanon ship either.

setting aside the lucas-approved matthew stover of it for a second lmao like… deborah chow calling it a love-story dynamic is quite a choice in phrasing

and this was even more ??? like what could have possibly been the POINT OF THIS LMAO

idk man! this is more than a lot of canon ships across all kinds of media ever get!

i really enjoy the vibe of obikin where people see obi-wan and anakin together and they say stuff to obi-wan like: “wow he’s so young and beautiful you’re so lucky”

and obi-wan’s like: “i don’t think you understand that i’m here as a public safety measure much in the same way a bomb technician is”

Theme 44 – Two Roads

I had something entirely different planned for this theme, but nostalgia pulled me back to Star Wars and Kingdom Hearts. I’ve always been fascinated by the parallels between Luke and Ezra: two heroes walking similar paths, having never even met. That’s the nature of parallels: they run side by side, never crossing. Then again, in stories, as in life, you never truly know where the road leads

[jebiknights]

Anyway, the New Mandalorians exist because the fucking ecosystem of the planet was destroyed due to the Mando's warmongering and civil wars. They're an anti war political party trying to resuscitate a dying planet. They turn to outright pacifism because their people were decimated by a recent! Civil war!

It's mad that so much of the fandom let's themselves get caught up in "oh but what about self defense, teehee" and "what happens if negotiation fails and you have to do whatever it takes to stay alive". She uses traditional warrior guards, clearly she isn't an absolute pacifist. But even ignoring the fact that some forms of pacifism allow for things such as self defense and even revolution, not to mention non violent tactics like disarming and de-escalation, it's missing the point of what the new mandalorians represent!

War kills people! War kills the environment! Glorifying violence and war makes people hungry for violence and war! That's the message that is being broadcasted to us by the show but people see this and go "b-but 🥺 my violence". Like ... Star Wars has always had anti-war themes helloooo is this thing on?

[ensomniaa]

Dude the Jedi are literally one of THE most fascinating and inspiring good guys / heroes / protagonists I’ve seen in a story and so is their whole philosophy and their teachings. There’s so much depth and sense to them and what they do and why. You can literally learn such useful lessons through them, adult or child.

So I really don’t understand all this anti Jedi nonsense and this idea that we need to be super critical about them and blame them, because apparently the villains / antagonists deserve to be put on a pedestal and excused for everything they do (*cough* murder, genocide, slavery, etc.) because they sad at times with a at times sad backstory.

And the fact that even writers within Star Wars feel like that, instead of taking the Jedi as they are and have always been meant to be perceived as, is so saddening.

It doesn’t take long to take the time, especially as a writer, and look into the Jedi's origins and what GL wanted to tell with his story, especially in terms of evil and good and the concept of balance and being in control of yourself specifically your darkest and most negative characteristics and emotions.

And this whole idea of Jedi being arrogant just because they strive the be the best version of themselves is getting so annoying. Like come on, that’s just your envy and insecurities shining through.

#this this this#star wars#dont get me wrong im down for the occassional Pong Krell esque messed up Jedi#tho Barriss Offee may be the better example. Just a singular jedi that doesnt represent the whole#but when it gets into ‘well the jedi is just a flawed institution’ i cant help but go big HMMM#not only is that take steeped a staggering amount of racism and judeochristian religious superiority#but also a large part of what was ‘flawed’ about the jedi was entirely bc of Palpatine manipulating them#like damn the guy really is sly if he’s even getting people outside the universe to believe the jedi were bad all along#the jedi are far from perfect but the modern trend of equating that with well they must secretly be flawed af and ruining lives just kinda..#not a big fan of it ngl#unless ofc im reading fanfic where we gotta manufacture some tension before jedi can bang#ill pretty much forgive any take if the smut is written well enough and you can put that on my gravestone

Anakin had a mother, but no father. He was 9 YEARS OLD when he left to be trained by Obi Wan. I hope you don’t have any children in your life if you think that’s remotely okay. Obi Wan is a great queer coded character. But teacher/student relationship is extremely toxic if made to be romantic. Their trauma is familial, and bonded by Padme’s death, and Luke and Leia resembling Anakin/Padme as children. It'd be like getting ready to ship 10 year old Leia with Obi Wan. You're gross! <3

[strawberry-crocodile]

Obi-Wan: My apprentice you know I care deeply for you and I really support your transition but you can not name yourself Padme

The inherent homoeroticism of killing your enemy and immediately regretting it

[faustandfurious]

It’s about rage, it’s about obsession, it’s about making that two-person war your entire raison d’être. It’s about loving and mistaking it for hatred and loving and loving and loving to the point of destruction. His or yours, it doesn’t matter. And you think seeing him dead at your feet will make you feel better, but all you feel is a whole lot of nothing.

Jedi June 2025

A creative fandom event dedicated to appreciating the Jedi, taking place during the entire month of June! Each week will feature two prompts, around which people can create fanwork (of any kind – fic, art, cosplay, edits, anything you can think of) or meta focusing on the Jedi and the Jedi Order. All eras and continuities are welcome; OCs, established characters, doesn’t matter – it just needs to be about appreciating the Jedi!

Rules:

If you are participating, please tag your work/meta with #jedi june and/or @ this blog so that I will see it and reblog it here. All work must be your own. Feel free to crosspost it off-site.

This is an appreciation event, focusing on what we love and enjoy about the Jedi – not what we don’t. This is not the place to air your grievances with the Code, take potshots at the Council, prop certain Jedi/certain eras of Jedi up at the expense of others, or disparage the Jedi Order or their philosophy (including the concept of non-attachment) and way of life in any way. You are free to do that on your own time if that’s your thing, but it has no place within this event.

AUs and crossovers are allowed, with caveats: again, the purpose of this event is to appreciate the Jedi as Jedi, so sticking your favorite Jedi characters in something like a modern AU or making them all Sith or Mandalorian is not really within the spirit of this event. However, AUs such as making a non-Jedi character a Jedi, having a character survive their canon death, giving a character a different teacher or padawan, or killing Palpatine off-screen in an unspecified yet embarrassing and painful manner, would all be perfectly fine. Use your best judgement to determine whether an AU fits the spirit of the event or not.

On non-attachment: in a general sense, attachment refers to grasping, clinging, possessiveness, jealousy, and the "I can't live without you"/"I will burn down the galaxy before I risk losing you" attitude. See this post and this post for more information. A romance can certainly exist without these things, so you can certainly write Jedi in relationships for this event!

Please tag any spoilers up to two weeks after the relevant content has aired.

Following the prompts is encouraged, but not required. Any sort of pro-Jedi content is encouraged all year month long, and if tagged (and following the rules), will be reblogged.

We also have an AO3 collection!

Prompts:

Week 1 (June 1 - 7):

Prompt 1: Survive

Prompt 2: Thrive

Week 2 (June 8 - 14):

Prompt 1: Precognition

Prompt 2: Telekinesis

Week 3 (June 15 - 21):

Prompt 1: Community

Prompt 2: Symbiosis

Week 4 (June 22 - 30):

Prompt 1: Celebration

Prompt 2: Hope

Bonus (any time):

Prompt 1: Resisting Evil/The Dark Side/The Sith

Prompt 2: Light in the Darkness

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask! I hope you will have fun participating!

how could you leave this in the tags

[twilightofthe]

Crawling out of my grave briefly to ask anyone whose radar I’m still on a question:

I’ve published a bunch, like a LOT, idek how many, little writing ficlets, tiny drabbles on here, in response to ask games or on other ppl’s posts or even in my own posts

Given that Tumblr will inevitably one day (whether it be next week or a decade from now) die, I really don’t want all my little stories to die, as tiny as they are, they were things I created and I’m fond of them

I’m wondering if it’s worth it to post each of them on my AO3.

Now, I don’t want to put them all in one work as individual chapters, that leads to those billion tag behemoths that mess up your search results and take five minutes to scroll past that everyone hates, I don’t want to be that guy

But what I’m thinking of, posting each and every tiny ficlet as its own thing, makes me nervous

This would be me potentially plopping like over 20 new entries—maybe more I genuinely have no clue how many are on here—into my AO3, which could lead to spamming anyone who still follows me with emails of me posting and possibly spamming the Star Wars tag with my shit, some of which isn’t more than a few hundred words

I’ve got social anxiety and one of my worst fears in the world is being perceived as annoying and like; I don’t want to bother people

But at the same time AO3 is an archive and I do want to have a place where I can keep all my stories up where other people can see them (having them all in one place like that also means I can print them out so I can always have them even if something happens to AO3 one day too I do not trust our new digital society)

So like, does anyone think this is a good idea? Or should I pursue other options?

"Nor did we expect the story of the galactic republic’s decline to be so tedious and technocratic, involving trade embargos, boring speeches to the senate" laments The Guardian's Ben Child in 2024 May. In 2025 April:

[twilightofthe]

resurrecting this to say that one of my pettiest most meaningless pet peeves that nevertheless haunt me is that in the year of our lord 2025 i am sooooo tired of interacting with romance media (original or fanfic) where they’re trying to have the main couple bond over “nerdy interests” and there’s always always that part where they’re flirting like:

“Ok, so i GOTTA know,,,,, what is your favorite Star Wars movie—and you better not say the prequels 🤢😏😂”

“*gaaasps* oh i would NEVER teehee”

Happy Star Wars Day! I’ve decided to make my Skywalker comic into one easily rebloggable post.
