     ❝ I HOPED YOU were dead. ❞ He is a graveyard world; a thousand dead ships caught inextricably in his orbit. && now Obi-Wan too is condemned to ellipse a black sun. ❝ At least then you wouldn’t be a coward. ❞ Had the emperor ever expected any less? A simple blaster shot from behind could never be Obi-Wan Kenobi’s end. When his former master’s death comes it will be orchestrated by the hand he raised. 

               Vader crosses the room, downing himself to one knee so that he may face the older man on his own level. The Force inhibitor around his neck makes a heavy accessory for him to trace with a nonchalance that only acts as commentary to his status. What might make a man so powerful he retains his supremacy even on his knees? The Force is infallible, it’s only the ones who wield it who limit its potential. && he who is half of what cannot be contained can never be controlled. 

     ❝ But it doesn’t matter. ❞ The smile he wears belongs to the boy he no longer is. It makes one wonder if Vader is a truly separate side of Anakin, or if it was always there, Lurking under clouded waters; a leviathan hidden behind blue eyes. ❝ You’re here. ❞ My family. Mine. All mine. 

     ❝ It’s so quiet now, without our bond. Your suppression of its remnants was amendable, but I question your decision not to attempt to break it. ❞ He withdraws his hand from Kenobi’s collar, still crouched to face him. ❝ It was your undoing. ❞ As will I be. 

     ❝ Padmé will be happy to know you have survived. ❞

so this is a callout post for @starkniight, for being an actual gemstone within the star wars rpc. Gale has such a wonderful grasp of Obi-Wan, and I greatly admire the constant evolution of portrayal and writing as her knowledge expands and her portrayal settles into where she’s comfortable. her ability to weave multiple forms of canon with her own opinions and also to draw from her heritage to formulate her headcanons is absolutely lovely, and a skill that I admire greatly.

but just as important, if not even more important, ( I would argue: more important ) Gale is a wonderful human being. she’s always open-minded and willing to discuss anything with anyone, which is beautiful and inspiring to see, especially on tumblr. Gale’s dedication to spreading positivity and love throughout this community, and to be there for anyone to come talk to should they need someone to talk to, is unwavering and is always inspiring to see.

I’m constantly impressed by Gale’s meaningful ooc posts, posts about her heritage, posts about how we should remember to treat others, and by her articulate responses to anyone questioning her opinions or asking follow-up questions. Gale possesses the rare quality of being able to firmly hold to her beliefs and express them in impassioned, but polite, words, and also being able to listen to differing opinions of others and learn from them, as I hope everyone else learns from Gale.

Holy crap-a-roli you guys. Where did you all come from?

another hiss as he swung his legs over the end of the bunk, pulling himself to his feet, his mechno-hand gripping onto the side to keep his balance as his hand of flesh remained over his left side. turning fully to his master, giving him his full attention as he awaited his answer.

❛ rex... rex wouldn’t tell me. he was very determined to get me out of this room RATHER than telling me. i need to know, obi-wan. ❜   he remained determined, he needed answers, he needed to know. so next time, this won’t happen. next time, he’d do a better job at planning and preparing, next time there won’t be as many loses.
