the way the clones and the Jedi’s cultures became so intertwined always gets me so teary.
Airo was literally the youngest of young for soldiers (he’d been named for a grand total of one day), and his dying words are still a Jedi / Force saying.
he didn’t have to spend years upon years with Obi-Wan for the Force- for the Jedi- to mean something to him. it just did. naturally. because he heard what the clones said about Obi-Wan and the Jedi and he trusted them and it wasn’t just him.
they all trusted and loved their generals, and the Jedi trusted and loved them in return. and that’s why Order 66 is SO deeply gutting
There’s a pretty common ASL brothers headcanon that Sabo teaches his brothers things like reading and writing among other things and I do think this is true to a degree. Like of course the bandits taught Ace the basics but you know little Ace and his whole “raaaa don’t tell me what to do. If I stay out of the house I can’t be a bother to you” mindset. And I certainly think Makino and the Mayor TRIED to teach Luffy but he only has a grip on bare basics. So Sabo had to teach more complicated things like grammar, multiplication, division and other things.
And honestly I could see him being a pretty good teacher. He knows how his brothers brains work and how to phrase questions for them so that they would understand. And considering Ace and Sabo had known each other for years by this point I could imagine Ace is use to Sabo being a teacher.
But Sabo as Luffy’s teacher is a little different. Because Sabo watches Luffy struggle with so many things he did when he was little. Phonetic spelling, contractions, fractions even simple things like buttoning up his own shirt are hard for Luffy. And while Ace is quick to call him stupid because it’s easy don’t be a baby. Sabo is patient with him because his own parents never were. He buttons Luffy’s shirts in the winter when he struggles, he sounds out store signs for him and break down maths questions to the point of rocks for Luffy to count. While I doubt Luffy was ever fond of class time, he was almost always met with patience helping him to learn
When Sabo left, Ace would not coddle him the same Sabo did even if he tried to and that Winter after Sabo’s death Luffy learned to button his own shirt and was so proud. He chose to leave Dawn in a button up vest as if to prove to Sabo he was grown enough to survive on his own and he didn’t need to worry.
do y’all ever think about the implications of quirrellmort not seeing each other’s faces for the entire year they were getting to know each other and falling in love, & then finally getting to look at each other and the first thing they want to do is dance together, only for that moment to be cut short by betrayal and heartbreak? because i do
Thinking about Percy being called special by Nancy Bobofit in the tv show, and Percy being called special by Sally in the musical, and Percy being seen as ‘special’ in all its connotations, and Percy being bullied for being neurodivergent, and tv show Percy thinking there’s something wrong with him, and tv show Sally telling him than he’s not broken, and the fact than Percy Jackson was created for Rick’s neurodivergent son, and the fact than being a demigod is a metaphor for neurodivergency, and the importance of Percy’s character…
I thought this would be funny. Clothes will be patched in soon.
