POV: Order 66 never happened, Anakin didn't turn to the Dark Side and Ahsoka ended up rejoining the order a couple of months after the war ended. Now years later they still like to enjoy each other's company as often as possible.
Magic happens when @ahhrenata and I brainstorm. And with that I mean Lauren does Magic. 🥰
Teaching methods on Kamino change drastically after the Jedi Order starts to supervise the clones' training, which leads to a sort of generational/cultural shift: Clones of the first generation were exposed to considerably more brutal conditioning methods and objectification in their training than clones that would finish their training during the war.
Additionally, the Jedi encourage clone cadets to embrace, value, and insist on their self-worth, as demonstrated by, for example, Yoda and Plo Koon in the early episodes.
Hence, we can observe this stark contrast between Rex and Fives when confronted with a situation that requires them to stand up for themselves, as most prominently exemplified during the Umbara Arc.
Throughout the show we see multiple instances of Rex's struggle with prioritizing his loyalty for the Republic over his and his brothers' needs, while Fives is willing to die for what he believes is right.
Rex's individuality seems more defined by external means, constructed through his (forced) service as an extension of the Republic.
Fives's individuality seems more defined by intrinsic means, constructed through his (forced) service as an addition to the Republic.
I like the idea that this difference between Rex and Fives might reflect (it's just me speculating) the effect of the Jedis' philosophy and influence on the clones' training.
you're trying to make things better. you're often times feeling really desperate because we have a sort of gut intuition that things are not going to go the way that we hope...
"We finally find acceptance, and can start moving forward from loss or heartbreak. These songs represent making room for more good in your life, making that choice, because a lot of times, when we lose things, we gain things too."
"We're going to be exploring the feelings of depression that often lace their way through my songs. In times like these, I'll write a song because I feel lonely, or hopeless, and writing a song feels like the only way to process that intensity of an emotion. And while these things are really, really hard to go through, I often feel like when I'm either listening to songs or writing songs that deal with this intensity of loss and hopelessness, usually that's in the phase where I'm close to getting past that feeling."
"This playlist takes you through the songs that I've written when i was in the bargaining stage, times when you try to make deals with yourself, someone you care about. You're trying to make things better. You're oftentimes feeling really desperate bc often times, we have a sort of gut intuition that tells us things are not going to go the way that we hope, which makes us more desperate, which makes us bargain more."
"These songs all have one thing in common: I wrote them while feeling anger. Over the years, I've learned that anger can manifest itself in a lot of different ways, but the healthiest way it can manifest in my life is when I can write a song about it, and often times, that helps me get past it."
"This is a list of songs about getting so caught up in the idea of something that you have a hard time seeing the red flags possibly resulting in moments of denial, and maybe a little bit of delusion. Results may vary."
Y’all Cody’s armor in Bad Batch is grey. I haven’t really been keeping up the Bad Batch, but Howzer was also a part of the empire, and he didn’t change his armor color. This is all to say grey painted armor in Mandalorian culture symbolizes mourning a lost love.
like am I supposed to take this information and not think Cody’s mourning Obi-wan? Is this not hashtag codywan hashtag confirmed?? Fellas??
