Why The Hell Did I Think Obi Wans First Time Seeing Leia Was Going To Be This Big Emotional Tragic Thing

why the hell did i think Obi Wan’s first time seeing Leia was going to be this big emotional tragic thing full of drama and realization

of COURSE the first time Obi Wan meets a new Skywalker it punches him in his bruised ribs and spits at him like an angry cat

of COURSE 😂😂😂

One thing I’d like to see in SW media is the presence of more fully adult padawans. Obi-Wan was 25-26 in TPM and nowhere is this implied that it is abnormal. In AOTC, Anakin is 20 and mentions that he wouldn’t be the youngest to take the trials successfully, implying that taking the trials at his age isn’t exactly common. But sometimes it feels like being elevated to knighthood is presented like graduating from high school or something. I like the idea of an extended apprenticeship not just to make sure a Jedi is “good at the Force” or whatever, but to make sure they’re able to prove an ongoing, steadfast commitment before they devote their whole life to the order. It also gives them plenty of time to decide if they want to leave to get married or do something else with their life. It shouldn’t just be about raw power.

It still kind of annoys me that the actress who played Barriss in AOTC was about 24 at the time but the writers chose to age her character down to a teenager for TCW (Not to mention other annoying things about what they did to her character but that’s a digression).

Me right now, I love her so much. This also includes Baby Luke too btw

I finished Moon Knight

cannot emphasize enough just how much i ADORE that the obi wan-leia dynamic consists of only about ten minutes passing before obi wan is speaking to her in his “anakin for the love of fucking god PLEASE” voice and only about ten minutes more before leia gives him a goddamn heart attack
