Asajj Ventress, seeing Anakin stumble: HA HA I KNOW HOW THIS STUDENT THING WORKS, I AM THE STUDENT OF DOOKU, WHO JUST LIGHTNING FRIED ME EARLIER THIS MORNING FOR POTENTIALLY FAILING HIS LATEST SCHEME, GET WRECKED, SKYWALKER Obi-Wan Kenobi, who stays true to the Jedi principles of teaching: Don’t worry about that, what’s important to me is that you are okay, because you’re more valuable to me than the mission, plus now we can just go find her again anyway, we work together and support each other, now let’s go get some ice cream Asajj Ventress: what in the actual fuck
hilarious to me that every single member of the disaster lineage got a taste of their own massive angsty lone wolf rebel medicine the second they got padawans like it's so funny. imagine ur dooku you've grown up matured some realized that yeah ok i didn't need to storm off THAT dramatically after my third argument of the day with my master. and then you get fucking qui-gon as a padawan and suddenly you understand why yoda said you were giving him wrinkles at his young age (412). and it keeps going like that. dooku gets qui gon. qui gon gets obi wan. obi wan gets ANAKIN. anakin gets ahsoka. a couple weeks hours into their new protege's padawanship they must have all been like fuck. i need to go apologize to my former master right now. that's hilarious to me

Happy 1-Year Anniversary to Obi-Wan Kenobi!

RotJ makes a point of letting us know that Leia is Luke's sister, they've known this on some level for a long time, and he probably cares more about her than anyone in the world because this gives so much more weight to his conflict at the end of the movie, and I think this is a huge thing people overlook when they argue that him redeeming his father represents a rejection of the old Jedi ways of non-attachment. Because in the moment he has to let go of Leia and his friends to be able to actually save Anakin.
When Obi-Wan tries to convince Luke that he has to kill Vader and there's no other way, he doesn’t really discuss it as an issue of Luke having an attachment to him. I think he knows this isn't really the Jedi way but just like in the previous war, they don't seem to be faced with any good choices. Obi-Wan believes what Luke wants is truly impossible and, having failed to stop Vader when he could have before, of course he's trying to stop Luke from making the same mistake.
But it's significant that in the same conversation, Obi-Wan does warn him that his love for his sister could be made a liability if he's not careful. When Luke learns he has a twin and reveals how strong a connection he feels with Leia because he doesn't even have to be told who it is, Obi-Wan's response sets up how this will play into the climax of the film:
"Your insight serves you well. Bury your feelings deep down, Luke. They do you credit, but they could be made to serve the Emperor."
Then when Luke is brought to Sidious, he reveals to Luke that the Rebellion is walking right into a trap as a way to torment and provoke him. Luke gets angrier and angrier while helplessly watching the fleet get ambushed and finally does just what Sidious wants and tries to attack him. But it's Vader specifically threatening Leia that makes Luke totally lose control of his feelings and fight him in a rage.
Luke is basically facing the same kind of test he failed so badly in ESB by running off to help his friends. When Yoda is trying to make him see he's not ready to face Vader and keep him from going to Bespin, he says something that I think is such an underrated quote in its importance to Luke's whole journey:
"Decide you must how to serve them best. If you leave now, help them you could, but you would destroy all for which they have fought and suffered."
Luke is really lucky he doesn't get killed in Cloud City (or captured, which I think at this point could have resulted in him being turned). Yoda knows Luke is the one person with a chance of defeating the Emperor and Luke just about throws that away.
But at the end of RotJ when Luke cuts off Vader's hand, he surely is reminded of his failure at Bespin and sees the path he's starting down by succumbing to his fears like that again. He stops because he sees he's betraying his loved ones and everything he is. He can only throw away his weapon and confidently tell the Emperor to eat shit then because he's no longer afraid of dying or of those he loves dying. He's done what his father couldn't do and kept his soul intact, which is what Leia would want. Because real love isn't selfishly trying to save someone by betraying what they believe in like Anakin did with Padme. And it obviously has to be an incredibly powerful thing for Vader to see his own son able to do this, even comparing himself to the man he once was ("I am a Jedi, like my father before me").
We remember everything working out okay so it's easy sometimes to forget that Luke gives this triumphant speech when the rebel fleet is getting pulverized outside and things overall still look pretty hopeless. He probably expects he could die at this point. But like Obi-Wan in his own death scene, he knows nothing can destroy him now. And it's the love he feels for his family that gives him the strength to let go.

I may be a day late and a dollar short here in the UK, but I'm technically still on Florida time and it's still May the 4th there!
✨ Happy Star Wars Day 2023 all! ✨
My favorite thing about the Obi-Wan Show is that Anakin is completely and utterly unhinged and 10000% obsessed with Obi-Wan, and Obi-Wan -- who didn't even know Anakin was STILL ALIVE as recently as like, 48 hours ago -- has like 5 minutes of freaking out and then just more or less rolls with this and immediately goes into Anakin Management Mode.
"What?! He's still alive, and still insane, and still trying to murder me? That...is very upsetting! OK! Throw that one on the trauma pile, I guess! What's that, I can now share visions with him across space while we're both wet and naked? Well! That's a new one! Didn't super know that was a thing. Great -- I was so hoping to have a lasting and deeply intimate supernatural bond with a mass murderer. That's gonna probably continue to be annoying for awhile. Hmm? I'm sorry, did you say he LIVES on Mustafar now?Jesus Fucking Christ. Of course he does. He has never let anything go, ever.For fuck's sake. All right, no time to dwell on this -- listen up everyone: here's how we're gonna outsmart this dumbass because nobody knows him better than me"
I had a dream my life would be…
So different from this hell I’m living
