jedi june 2024 — prompts week 2: advice/inspiration

you have to know, tu'ala, why you would sacrifice yourself for another. it isn't that the force loves you less than other creatures. it is that you love other creatures more.

Also your previous reply to my inbox is very sweet, pass on my regards to your brother/household for being brilliantly funny in appreciating the excellence of Larry!

LMAO yes let's project our clown car of a government onto lothal it's the only way to cope

happy star wars day! redraw of one of my old sw comics bc i am STILL obsessed with the idea of the twins meeting padmé's family

I’m also thinking perhaps a petty prank here and there. Rooting for Quinlan to put hair remover in his shampoo make that man bald

One thing one does not consider when breaking up with a jedi, is that it can feel like breaking up with all Jedi, and one might know it until it feels like very Force itself is working against you.

All im saying is Quinlan is that standard loose cannon ride or die friend you have to be worried about.

Mace Windu however... just tipped an invisible scale in the greatest sense of significance to you, against you

Kanan is a great example of this. Not only is he one of my favorite Jedi of all time, but his death was the most brutal for me to watch. He gave his own life to save his loved ones. He had to choose between himself and others. As explored in the episode A World Between Worlds, there doesn’t exist a reality where Kanan lives where the rest of the Ghost Crew also does.

It would be short-sighted if this act was viewed as one done solely because of his love for Hera/the Ghost Crew, because he knew that Lothal’s fuel depot specifically was crucial to the Empire (for the TIE Defender program). At this point, the Ghost Crew were already involved with the larger Rebel fleet and he knew they had a role in that as well.

Obi-Wan also sacrificed his life so the Rebellion could survive. By fighting Vader, he made sure Luke, Leia, and Han could escape and thereby complete the mission of destroying the Death Star. He delayed his death until the very moment it was necessary to make sure the others could fulfill their greater purpose.

Luke himself did something very similar when he projected himself onto Crait to fight Kylo Ren long enough to buy the Resistance time to escape. He singlehandedly delayed the First Order so that the last remainder of Resistance fighters could regroup and continue to fight back, which they eventually did.

This list would not be complete without Anakin, who gave his life to defeat the Emperor, thereby marking the start of the Empire's dissolution. ROTJ introduced very explicitly that being a Jedi is about selflessness and sacrifice in general, and death is usually portrayed as the highest form of sacrifice. We see that motif over and over, as seen in the above examples.

You're Being God™ wrong, peasant.

Yet at THE SAME time? The jedi are out here? With their millenia of "how to un-fuck the most fucked up shit you've ever seen" skills, going *steeples fingers* "hmmmm, how do we gently redirect this aimless young man... towards something constructive? Food motivated maybe?""

All this to SAY! I left History's Most Persuasive (yet some how worst) Sith Clone with the impressionable Clone Army! They probably think they're supposed to be a Sith army now. But like... jedi flavored? Jedi-sith! Yeah that makes sense! (It does not)

*they proceed to basically recreate the army of light but hot topic this time*

Yeeeeeah~ they're gonna get a Good Grade in understanding what the generals meant! A thing that is both real and possible to achieve by NOT ASKING! They just got to copy this guy! *holds up lil Nil, who blinks in sleepy confusion*

Mace anf Palpatine both facing the greatest challenge, training a cat.

Worse the Jedi temple has a lot of good nap spots
