Fiction Writer's Hard-on For The Name "Brian"

Fiction writer's hard-on for the name "Brian"

If I had a nickel for every time a fucked up old dude in a fandom I follow had the name "Brian" sandwiched between a bunch of latin nonsense for his full given name, I'd have two nickels, which isn't that many but it's weird it happened twice.

learning that people actually think Anakin Skywalker was a Mary Sue has to be the most brain-dead thing I've seen on this site.

Anakin getting married at nineteen is absolutely hilarious to me. Hysterical. This is peak comedy to me. Like, I cannot for the life of me imagine a boy who is in a monastic order that strongly discourages marriage getting married like two years out of high school. If it weren’t for the Shakespearian overtones of the prequels, this would probably get dunked on a whole lot more. I understand the whole lense of tragedy and sadness that the prequels are going for, so I forgive it a lot more. It has a sense of medieval aesthetic; the young knight marries his beloved before going off to war because both are afraid that they may never truly be together. 

That being said, the Star Wars prequels missed out on the opportunity to have Anakin and Padme get Vegas-married, all drunk and shit, and then just stay married because shit, why the hell not. Like, it makes so much more sense if it’s put that way. You could have a scene where the two get drunk because they’re depressed they started the war. They’re both already so reckless, so a bit of alcohol might push them over what they were already thinking about. What makes more sense; a marriage between two sober people, one of whom is twenty-four and mature enough to understand that they are both throwing away their careers for this, or two drunk idiots deciding that marriage after two days of knowing each other is the best fucking idea?

you know how some parents are like, really really intense and force their kids to practice violin 3 hours a day whether or not its good for their child as an individual because they have an idea about Greatness? That’s the Jedi with Anakin except they started teaching him to Murder

the purest form of love is necromancy.

This, this right here, is one of the most beautiful piece of artwork I have ever seen from the Star Wars fandom in my life. The symbolism, the quote, the heartbreaking juxtaposition between a sweet young Anakin, and the monstrous older Anakin, is just amazing.

"I had a dream I was a Jedi.

I came back here and freed all the slaves."
