Just a reminder, we're very queer here on tumblr so we are literally programmed to pick up on queer subtext.
Just because someone says they never saw anything that implied Buck is not straight, doesn't mean they're homophobic so don't just jump at their throat. If they're being a bigot, that's one thing but if they just don't personally see it but don't have an issue, leave them alone.
It takes 0 effort to not be an asshole and ignore someone
Listen I ship dinluke for so many reasons but number 1. is that I think it’s incredibly funny to ship a man who so desperately doesn’t want to be a main character with Mr. Star Wars himself
The best fics are the ones that recognize that although Luke Skywalker may APPEAR on the outside to be a normal friendly twink who happens to have cool powers, especially when contrasted with such ship partners as Boba or Din or even Han, he is arguably the scariest person alive in the galaxy around the prequel era. AND, crucially, he is also a fundamentally weird guy. This man was homeschooled on a rural farm his entire life and then apprenticed to a swamp gremlin who showed him how to tap into the cosmic power of the universe. He blew up the death star age 19, killing approx 2 million-ish Imperials. He is a vortex of Force power that can communicate with the ghosts of dead Jedi. He’s staring into the distance and mumbling to himself and doing Yoda aphorisms and casually pulling out the “yeah I could crush that guy into a paste with my mind (:” and nobody around him knows what to do with that. I think he is a character who has very little frame of reference for how a Jedi or a person in general is supposed to act and there is some thing about him that is by necessity really fucking weird and a little scary but he’s so nice that it can throw you off the scent a little bit. Thanks for coming to my TED talk
Anakin resenting Qui-Gon slightly because he believes Obi-Wan must have been in love with him at some point because after all EVery Padawan is at least a little in love with their Masters. This is so Normal and expected it doesn't bear thinking about. It doesn't mean anything. But if Obi-Wan DID like another Jedi more than him then it's also absolutely not allowed.
anakin, very drunk: i mean obviously he had a crush on his master cause that's what padawans do ALL padawans are a little in love with their masters it's just the way things go and i know he had a master and he was his master foreVER so i get it i just wish he'd confess to it but noooo he always says he never thought of his master that way but alllll padawans think of their masters that way, right aayla?
aayla secura, in the backseat with him while quinlan vos flies because they're doing obi-wan a favor by going to pick up his very drunk padawan: i don't want to weigh in on this one buddy
quinlan vos: 🤨 so you would be ok if obi-wan was in love with his old master? that's very big of yo--
anakin: only cause he's already dead. 😌 if he wasn't already dead i'd probably wanna kill him. which would make me sad. but it would have to happen. 😔🔪 i would be left with no choice
