can i just say it felt so fucking GOOD to have good, well-executed, fast-paced (!!) lightsaber fight choreography. the fights were exciting! each character had their own distinct style that matched their abilities and size! they were fast!!!!!! hands down the best saber fights we’ve seen in live-action sw in a long time.

to summarize an unduly rambly post: our control over kris has been steadily growing more and more distressing for them throughout the story. the snowgrave route, possibly the most gut wrenching, violating imposition of our will on theirs AND Noelle's (*homer voice* so far!), explicitly, thematically, and visually represents possession and coercion through romantic imagery, specifically rings and weddings. it's nauseating. it forces both of them into an implied relationship that neither of them is comfortable in by leveraging noelle's desperate wish to reconnect with her childhood friend. it has exactly the horrible connotations you don't want it to have.

ralsei being presented as both a direct callback to asriel—both the undertale asriel we know, and y'know... kris' brother in deltarune—while also setting him and kris up in a clearly romantic context that kris does not seem to either share or be comfortable with, is not a coincidence. it's not an accident. "isn't that a little incestuous" that's the point! kris' agency being stripped away is one of deltarune's main thematic cores: the game is repeatedly setting up a pattern where that theme is reinforced by putting kris in upsetting, unwanted romantic relationships for OUR entertainment. nothing fits the bill better than pairing them with the nostalgia bait companion that literally looks like their brother.

Ahsoka Ep. 5 was such a fever dream. How am I supposed to go about my day and attend class when the episode has been replaying non-stop in my head?

Draw Everything June day 5. Pre-Endar Spire and becoming a different person, Revan was a Form IV practitioner, so I thought this reference might fit him.

Being the Star Wars nerd of my friend group, I have opinions. Terrifying.

Having finished the acolyte, I can safely say that its biggest issue is that there isn’t more of it. We had good actors, good characters, and on paper, a good plot. But there wasn’t enough time given to make that plot good in practice. It’s a shame, because when it works, it really does work. I hope the second season has a little more breathing room because I want to more of this show at its best.

anons hot take: reva should have instantly died once she let go of her hatred in owk... not walk off to have her own spinoff show...

I've got a number of gripes and criticisms with the Kenobi show but Reva surviving really isn't one of them. I honestly really liked her as a character and wish the show had done more with the potential that was there.

Having her die kind of misses the thematic point of what letting go of the dark means. As unrealistic as I find it for her to have survived being stabbed during Order 66, there's something very symbolic about her being 'killed' along with all the other Jedi, only to have her dragged back into this unlife, waking up amongst the corpses of her friends as this single solitary ghost, then forced to live for a decade in what is essentially hell, being twisted into something she never should have been. She's a vengeful spirit, unable to move on, just lashing out while stuck in this purgatory. She's trapped forever endlessly chasing after revenge- until she's finally able to break out of that cycle and actually live.

I think there's something really interesting in viewing the dark side as this horrific un-death- unable to die but also unable to live. This in-between limbo of pain and hatred forever eating itself alive. A vicious cycle of sad broken people stripping apart and breaking other people because someone had done the same to them.

Reva was able to break free of that. She stopped herself from continuing on that chain of hurt. I don't think the conclusion of an act like that should be death, but the chance to actually get to live and heal.
