The Honor Guard was quite different from this. For starters, you weren’t stuck on a Star Destroyer, you weren’t surrounded by humans, and there wasn’t a certain strawberry-blond Agent driving you up the wall. Well, and you also weren’t labeled ‘of Imperial interest’, whatever that may mean.
I cannot believe I have made jokes about Kanan fist fighting a Sith for years only for Ezra Bridger to actually do it in canon this is the greatest day of my life
Is it just me, or does anyone else dislike how the star wars fandom brushes aside the ghost crew?
Like how in a episode full of moments of ezra's hubris, and kanans fear and BLINDING, all everyone focuses on is ahsoka and Vader's duel (still great just overplayed)
Or how thrawn is not just there to be cool and calculating, but as a foil to hera, as a contrast to show what it'd look like if hera continues to focus on what's most effective for the mission, not her love and passion for her people and her family.
Even non ghost crew characters have their other relationships forgotten like Rex's conflict with kanan or Hondo's becoming a kooky pirate uncle to ezra, for scenes of those characters reminiscing on their pasts.
alexsandr kallus is a better fascist turned redeemed hero character than kylo fucking ren because although they both were fascist officers and heavily involved in literal genocide, kallus was the one who had to sit through the aftermath of what he did and actually do something about it. he realized his faith in the system was flawed and horrific and was forced to work with a survivor of said genocide and see the humanity in him, and then because of that, started asking questions and deconstructing his destructive worldview on his own. but that wasn’t enough!!! then he spent a whole season putting himself in mortal peril spying for the rebellion and trying to earn back his moral code and establish the rebellion’s faith in him, and even after he succeeded in that, even after he became a trusted spy, he STILL had to get the shit kicked out of him by heroes and villains alike before finally escaping the empire for good, bruised and bloodied, and THEN HE STILL got mocked and put in his place by teenagers and old soldiers, making sure his ego stayed humble and THEN, BECAUSE THAT WASNT ENOUGH EITHER, HE HAD A GAY HONEYMOON HAPPY ENDING WITH THE MAN WHO GOT HIM TO DEFECT IN THE FIRST PLACE. he even respected women. he was even voiced by david oyelowo. literally characters of all time. kyle ron could never
I DID IT!! My first gif!! Is it the best? No. Do I like it? Yes! For my first, I think it turned out pretty well!! I do hate how it's compressed and fuzzy, but tumblr hates me so unfortunately it had to be this way </3
I hope you guys like it!! I hopefully will be making more of these, which also hopefully won't be fuzzy!
You walk into my room and catch me in the act of building a time machine so we can see s1 Eman Esfandi Ezra and instead of explaining this to you I leap to -539mil BC and accidentally incite the Cambrian explosion
