MY MOLECULES HAVE STARTED TURNING PINK
dril and xkcd are at opposite ends of a spectrum slowly working to collaboratively post about every possible topic
his legal name being 'and ken' is so genius he's literally just barbie's accessory this movie is for real men
@disney when will my Cody show starring Tem that begins where the Obi Wan show left off with Cody seeing the alerts and wanted pictures and realising he's alive and tracking him down while dealing with his own personal pathos and trauma which ends with the buddies on tatooine concept that was dropped from the obi wan show be announced i'm waiting
various shmi lives au stuff because 1. i love her and 2. i don't draw the skywalker-lars family enough <3
Fellas, is it gay to get down on one knee, ask for another man's hand, and give him a ring as proof of your vow?
I'm working on Cody and Obi Wan having a call and response, because it just makes sense. And right now they're just shouting echo (in Mando'a) at each other. Which would be extra funny when Echo is around like Obi Wan: eyayah! Cody: *in the distance* eyayah!
Echo: Can I help you general? Obi Wan: No, it's fine. I'm just looking for Cody *wanders off* eyayah!
Echo: ??? Sir? Rex: Yeah, they just do that sometimes. I don't get it either.
this sentence makes me feel like a fucking lovecraftian protagonist hearing some alien keening sound and feeling an instinct older than mankind kick in at the basal ganglia telling them fight, kill, rip or tear or run--this is something inimical to you, to life itself, this is what the ending sounds like. Your Wholesome Obsession With Wumpus. this is my fucking jason bourne activation phrase i read this and came to with bruises underneath my fingernails and a czech bureaucrat's windpipe lodged between my teeth. Your Wholesome Obsession With Wumpus. that's what's written on the gates of hell
the way obi-wan is the first to hold the children, the one who actually welcomes them into the world, it's the way he looks at baby luke with SUCH WONDER, HOPE, DEEPEST SORROW & LOVE
something something the way obi-wan & padme are each other's proxies which enables the transference of motherhood and how obi-wan is the one who gets 'cradling a new born child' close-up shot usually reserved for the mother instead.
*foaming at the mouth in utter derangment* isn't it....isn't it ironic how lucas said he needed vader as the father but needed a father figure so he created obi-wan for the OG trilogy, but the prequels accidentally (and unintentionally) place him in the narrative position of the mother.
by have him directly take over from padme; both LITERALLY and SYMBOLICALLY. their similarities in demeanour, personalities and their relation to anakin - as apologists, as devotees, as those who believe in him- makes their narrative roles transferrable.
how making padme die in childbirth and obi-wan be the first to hold the children to - figuratively- be the one who brings them into this world, keeps them safe and watches over them makes him a mother figure in exile, in direct opposition to anakin.
maiden -> mother -> crone
