ladies and gentlemen,
them.









when it's "burn the witch" they're shrieking
when the truth comes out it's quiet

I lose myself in a daydream
im so awful at drawing Taylor but I will try again just to do this one because it's gorgeous

Ahsoka Tano (Taylor's Version)
literally the first thing I thought of!!!




Ahsoka vs Marrok (Ahsoka) | Sol vs Qimir (The Acolyte) ↪ for @azurecanary
that was also master Kelnacca's lightsaber, the one sol had to disarm him from when the witches were in his mind, the one mae stole, the one Jecki used against the stranger and the one that was cut when the fight ended, that saber did see a lot of blood

The way we always knew we were going to see the bleeding of a kyber crystal in The Acolyte...
I've been wondering for a while how to put everything I've seen about the acolyte finale into words and this is it here, plain and simple. it was an amazing finale.
The Acolyte spoilers:
It’s wild to me how much discourse there is about points from The Acolyte that I think were pretty obvious lol
People arguing about Qimir being a Sith or not. He explicitly said he was looking for an acolyte. An acolyte is an apprentice to the apprentice of the Sith master. Then Qimir said he wanted the power of two. I mean what more evidence do we need lol
Also about Plagueis being his master. I’m not 100% sure, but I’m 99% sure he is lol my theory is, is that Plagueis has heard about these twins and has ordered Qimir to train one or Qimir is doing all this on his own cause eventually he needs to overthrow his master (we know the future, this won’t happen).
The bleeding crystal. The argument is “but anakins lightsaber didn’t bleed!$&&/“ yeah because his crystal wasn’t exposed. Did we miss the multiple shots of Sols exposed lightsaber and the blue crystal????? Osha bled the crystal cause she was touching it.
Was it romantic at the end? YES.
Anyway just needed to get this off my chest or hands whatever lol cause I’m seeing too many people not get this
couldn't agree more, it's everyone just tearing into it because it's Disney starwars but this show just needs to have its own time to breathe so we can enjoy it
One of the things I've realized is most of the reviewers of The Acolyte are...incredibly childish.
I've seen people complain about not understanding why Qimir's armor was shorting out the lightsabers.
They tell you about it in the next episode.
People complained about Sol not realizing it's Mae...and they explain why...in the next episode.
Take a minute...breathe...and maybe shut the hell up before you start tearing into an unfinished story.
my girlssssss




I love when Star Wars is alien girls dual weilding green lightsabers
head empty, just thinking about Jecki watching over ahsoka as one with the force, helping her throughout her life as ahsoka even surpassed her own age.
helping her train against the clones with Anakin's tough training, as she took up her second saber, when she went on all those suicide missions, when the Jedi cast her out, when she wandered the galaxy on her own and felt abandoned by all, during order 66, getting her white sabers the age Jecki was when she died
when ahsoka has no one Jecki was next to her, supporting her as the force
Don’t think about Jecki’s first mission away from the Jedi Temple happening when she’s 18. Don’t think about how the Order was once able to keep their children protected until they grew into adults and were ready to leave. Don’t think about Ahsoka being deployed to an active war zone at age 14. Don’t think about all of the child soldiers that never got to spend their childhood at the Jedi Temple, safe and loved as they should have been.
saving this whole fight for later lol












Mae, you can learn from this padawan. She's a loyal pupil. The Acolyte - Night

force ghost Jecki Lon with an unaware Ahsoka Tano just there to support her 💙🤍
(I guess soon was today lol)

new headcanon: I now believe Ahsoka tano used holos of Jecki lon to study jar kai movements when she was a padawan and I love it
P.S. Ahsoka also maybe loved that their sabers matched colours



P.P.S. this look is so Ahsoka coded and I loved it
okay I was totally gonna wait for all the episodes of the acolyte to release for me to say anything about the show because I wanted to let it have its time before I judged but I just wanna say
I absolutely loved jecki in 'night'!! her jar'kai was literally the smoothest and most satisfying version of the fighting style I've seen in live action and I'm really happy with the whole episode period.
I think I might draw her soon tbh

lightsabers vs lightswords
lightsabers have cleaner and more defined blades, especially at the base near the emmiter.
along with the kyber crystal (or a few other limited options) they also have a focusing crystal(s) to stabilize and basically clean up the shape of the blade and push it together, cooling it down as well, this helps the lightsaber be safer for longer periods of use and gives the saber it's classic hum

lightswords or have no focusing crystal and because of this they have sparks emerging from the bottom when ignited, they have very crackly sounds (which I love) and because they heat up quickly they're slightly more unstable and leave trails of smoke when extinguished by the user
these sabers were actually a more ancient version of the lightsaber known in the high Republic and onwards


The Phantom Menace

okay sooooo
am I the only one who actually prefers the lore that says that Jedi collect their crystals and then meditate with them and that's what gives the crystal it's colour??? (i certainly hope not)
i know it's a thing in the comic books where characters just pick out a crystal with the color already ingrained into it and there's nothing more to it but I feel like half the reason lightsabers are cool to me is because they actually tell you something about the user, they tell you their preferences in combat, how they view the force and sometimes even how deadly they can be

do I wanna believe mace windu just found a purple crystal or do I wanna believe he got this rare color because he uses dark side tactics but has the ability not to be blinded by them?

the first time I saw Anakin's lightsaber was blue I thought it was very telling about who he was and I believe that it was actually the first hint to his dark tactics and eventually his fall to the sith (even if it was by accident this is my interpretation).
how could the chosen one, the person with the most midi-chlorians, a person who has incredible force potential, uses a blue lightsaber instead of a green one? it is so accurate to his character because blue means you prefer using your saber to using the force in combat, they're also usually the first to pull them out and the ones to do it without hesitating to anyone anywhere.
i just thought it was perfect, that paired with an aggressive style, it was right under their noses

i still think about the plo koon lightsaber we could've gotten way too often lol
i know lots of people think it's stupid but I'm sure movie magic could've made it work
ok so in the wake of the new acolyte trailer I decided to finally keep reading the high Republic books I've been meaning to get to, more specifically 'light of the jedi' and I read something I absolutely adored
so avar kriss
she has a very special connection to the force, needs to find a hunk of a damaged ship in the whole star system.

she sits down in a field of farmers crop saying that the force is extremely strong here, it's all around her. she floats up her saber and makes it start to spin like a windmill in front of her, she then uses this lightsaber and adjusts it's speed to channel the force to find the object like a kind of force magnifying glass to put it simply if crudely

i really love this and think it's a genius push to the boundaries of what can be done with a lightsaber when paired with the force and it got me thinking of maybe alternative ways that a lightsaber could be used.
what if a Jedi needs to push something that's far away, so they throw their saber in that direction, ignite it with the force and use the blade like an extension of themselves to push said object away? that would be so cool!
id love to see more of this in the new show, fingers crossed!
ps. avar kriss' lightsaber is so gorgeous and I love it

little ahsoka doodle I did 💙💙

got em! (and two blades)
so my thoughts so far, it being the next day
first thoughts:
out of the box, the shoto wouldn't display color on the blade at all, but it did have sound, luckily I did bring fresh batteries to the park and switched them out, that fixed it just fine.
hilts:
they're absolutely gorgeous, very accurate, a little big for my hands, definitely made for grown man hands which I find ironic lol, hopefully it's just because of the electronics inside (ignoring the fact that other brands have them in a slimmer style)
i can still spin them a bit, I love the way they sound, it's not too loud which is perfect for my taste. The ignition and swinging sounds are satisfying but the smooth swing kinda just decides when it wants to work
blades:
I got the 34 inch blade and the 24 inch blade and 34 inch is ridiculously long for me, I had no clue it was that big, and the 24 was perfect for my size
the 34 inch blade started to malfunction, sometimes the color just stops displaying but the shorter one works perfectly, I'm in love
the scrolling effect is smooth enough for me but I'm more used to baselit sabers so take it with a grain of salt
I'm gonna try to get a replacement blade so I'll update on that for sure but so farrrr
final thoughts:
sabers: 8/10, a little chunky, a little easy to scratch, the smooth swings is way off.
blades: 5/10 you can see the led placement inside the blade and the larger one just stopped working and was way too long for a main blade.
i would recommend, id just get two shoto sized blades (even though it's not accurate, it's just better that way) and I want to have it clear
they're beautiful, I adore them 💙💚
so I think I figured something out.
I'm hopefully getting ahsoka's Galaxy's edge lightsabers soon and in all the reviews I've seen people always point out how the shoto is the wrong color, because it's green instead of the yellow-green that we see in the clone wars

this one
however, if Disney wanted to have this color, they would, because the shoto even has a different tone of sound font, it doesn't match the main saber exactly. every time Disney has released an animated padawan ahsoka, both her sabers are green


a bit of digging with find you with the story that when they were deciding on ahsoka's shoto George Lucas wanted green and Dave wanted yellow, they settled on yellow-green (which I'm not really a fan of). i find it funny that its here when Disney wants to follow what George wanted tbh
but in conclusion, Disney did it on purpose, and personally I like when lightsabers match eachother
