Dooku:…what are you doing

Obi-Wan, panicking slightly: I’m a double agent. Passing them bad intel.

Dooku: I didn’t ask you to do that

Obi-Wan: …i’m taking initiative????

Dooku:

Dooku: My boy would never do such a thing

So we also have an unhinged (but in the OTHER direction) Anakin chasing Obi-Wan across the galaxy going: 'Come back to the light side, Master, you're my brother!'

The desire to escape society and the need for human interaction are not mutually exclusive.

I'm not any kind of expert on this, I just want to share my thoughts so please don't come at me--

Humans are social animals, through and through. We literally evolved to interact. The primary reason we have language and the ability to think abstractively is because early humans somehow had to learn to communicate their needs to others, otherwise they died. They needed help to survive. Hence, our brains are biologically hardwired for seeking interaction and it is something a brain needs to developed healthily.

If someone is 100% sure they would be completely fine with zero human interaction then that person should get help from a specialist. Preferably fast.

However, modern society does not always provide healthy interaction simply because modern society tends to be too big.

The need to escape into the woods far away from humanity is usually felt by people being born in big cities and as someone who was born in a big city I totally get it. Too much interaction is owerhwelming and when you are surrounded by people from all sides your mind starts to wonder - would it be easier if I just disappeared. We go from one absolute to another and it is very fucking sad that very few people are told that there is a middle way.

We aren't meant to live in groups of thousands, surrounded by infrastructure from all sides. Such intensive urbanisation leads to zoochosis - and yes, humans can experience it too - procrastination, compulsive behaviours, doing things on autopilot, the need to be better, etc. You name it!

So, yeah, the desire be alone is there because of too much stimuli from all sides. It is not healthy or reasonable or practical and if followed would almost certainly lead to death. Biologically, it doesn't make sense. Abstractively, it's perfectly sound.

This scene. This particular scene. THE WAY I GASPED because who else used to pull that move?

This bitch.

The moment I saw Zuko do this I couldn't help but notice how similar he looks to his father and like... There is no way he is not aware of that.

The amount of ISSUES he must get from that. Oh My God.

I know that some people already pointed out that - omg Ozai was an evil prick, but he was also fine shit and thank fuck Zuko inherited those looks - but like...

I can't help but think that at one point he looked in a mirror from a weird angle, or someone confused him with Ozai, or... whatever and he was like...

Fuck.

Let's not forget that Zuko's biggest fear was becoming his father, so I think that as he got older he might have started to appreciate his scar more and more because it's THE major difference in their appearances.

...

I have a scene at the forefront of my mind where Zuko sits alone in his rooms in darkness with all the reflective surfaces covered besides one. And he's just... staring at his reflection and wondering was that what Azula felt when she went crazy. His image shifts, distorts. First into his sister, then to their mother, to finally settle on Ozai and it's wrong because his eyes are wide, his mouth is slightly parted; he looks scared. And Zuko doesn't remember ever seeing that emotion on his father's face. He frowns, the reflection mirrors it and he realizes that it's... him. He breaks the mirror, hurts his hand and hopes nobody notices. But Iroh does, and Iroh being Iroh, he addresses it.

...

Not really...
