just realized i wrote that one-shot during break and tagged it as happy ending when it’s like… to me- aemond slashing out his eye thinking it as a romantic gesture for lucerys to become just as obsessed with him is a happy ending!
I like how like… with every new piece of Star Wars media that paints Tatooine as more and more of a shithole where everyone is a murderous crimelord the funnier it gets that Luke Skywalker just grew up on this planet completely normal.
Like I’m envisioning a normal day at Tosche Station where a cyborg biker and a
Twi'lek prostitute are stabbing each other over a bag of spice and then it just pans over to this fresh-faced nancy boy sitting at a table sipping on his blue milk going “oh golly, I sure do love power converters!”
I feel like if I rebooted Scooby Doo for the 127th time I would just say screw it and make one of them goth. Having trouble deciding which one, though. Here are my cases for each of them:
Velma: REALLY into classic literary horror and stans the Hex Girls like in her Mystery Inc. incarnation. Still dresses like a dork. Shaggy: Listens to a lot of metal and wears cargo pants, thinks monsters and demons and stuff are sick as hell in theory but freaks out when actually in the presence of one. Daphne: Stylish, girly vamp-goth and reader of Twilight-esque paranormal romance novels. Fred: Actually, now that I’m typing this out, I don’t think it can be Fred. Fred is a big sunny golden retriever jock and therefore categorically incapable of being goth
Shmi does eventually meet Vader. He’s spying on her, in that moment, and awkwardly disappears.
Obi-Wan sticks by the “Vader is Shmi’s dad” theory indefinitely.
Yoda manages to see Qui-Gon Jinn’s ghost, and thus becomes the first person to know the truth about Vader. He does not actually share this truth, because he decides it’s not his business. Nobody needs to know that Vader is future-Anakin.
Vader starts stalking recently-fallen Ventress, for… reasons? He’s curious and a little bored and then, after he sees her, he decides to scare her back to the light. This doesn’t work for many reasons.
Qui-Gon’s ghost haunting Ventress, on the other hand… manages to annoy her to the Light.
