It's really depressing that the only real Jedi centric and Jedi positive show in existence is written for preschoolers, while many of the more "adult" shows are edgy and about morally ambiguous or straight-up evil characters. As if lessons about being kind and selfless are somehow not important or relevant to adults just as much if not more than they are to children.

It feels like characters who are unambiguously good are seen as only enjoyable by the very young and adult viewers will only actually appreciate characters who are cruel and selfish (and the requisite "tragic backstory" that always goes with it to help excuse their cruel and selfish choices).

It's just really sad and disappointing.

#star wars #listen i love andor #i really do #but i'm seeing a pattern of shows aimed at older audiences always always ALWAYS having moral ambiguity as a central theme #the good ones like andor always keep in mind that these people are doing awful things #they're not necessarily heroes even tho they're on the right side #the bad ones like ahsoka and acolyte find ways to send the message that being selfish is actually the right thing to do sometimes #i'm just so tired of the jedi getting relegated to the side because no one can see nuance in unambiguously good people #like at best they are just not there at all #at worst they are turned into the villains specifically for refusing to stop practicing their culture even in the face of persecution #give me my adult jedi show #GIVE ME THE REVA SPIN-OFF I DESERVE #STOP GIVING ME THIS JEDI CRITICAL BULLSHIT #IT'S ALL HORRIFICALLY BAD #I DON'T CARE HOW GOOD YOUR CGI IS THE STORY IS NO LONGER STAR WARS IF YOU HATE THE JEDI #GO MAKE YOUR OWN SCI FI IF YOU CAN'T RESPECT THE JEDI

Brother I Love

@zaana made a post in which Hunter is the lovey-dovey type of drunk and naturally I really had to write about it.

◈ ━━━━━━ ◆ ━━━━━━ ◈

Tech had his back turned to his older brother. He listened to Hunter's seemingly silent winces, his shaky, ragged breaths. Tech closed his eyes, he'd already stitched Hunter up, already applied bacta patches, already did everything he could to help his brother's pain, he couldn't do anything else. Tech glanced to look at Hunter, his eyes were closed, hand gingerly tracing his wound. "I'll be back." Tech promptly said, walking to where Wrecker and Echo were waiting.

"Well?" Echo had been with him when it happened, and he had failed to keep Hunter safe. "How's he fairing, Tech?"

"He's in pain." Tech walked over to the fridge, opening it up and staring into the cold void, "He's in pain because he has broken ribs and three stab wounds, and we're not in a position to get him to a bacta tank." Tech shook his head, grabbing the cold blaster and putting it into his holster. Tech thought about suffocating Hunter just a little bit so he'd pass out and rest, but of course his stubborn ass remained conscious the entire time.

"What can we do?" Wrecker asked, standing up and walking to the fridge, was Tech really hungry right now? Wrecker usually waited at least an hour after a sour mission to eat. Wrecker looked at the door, "We need to go get more supplies, there's a village not too far."

"I agree. Tech?" Echo asked, they could leave now, Crosshair would be out of the shower soon and would watch Hunter until then.

Tech didn't say anything, he narrowed his eyes at the two bottles. "Yes, yes," Tech waved his hand as he reached for a bottle, opening it and smelling it. He wouldn't need anything too strong; Hunter was already such a lightweight. "Echo, power down the Marauder." Tech ordered as he grabbed a bottle of whiskey and set it on the counter.

Echo gave Tech a look, especially after seeing the bottle in his brother's hand. Day drinking wasn't usually Tech's thing, but Echo could really use one too. "We taking shots before heading out?" Wrecker laughed as he pulled down glasses.

"No." Tech said, shoving all but one glass back. He felt the Marauder go quiet and he sighed. Tech opened the bottle and poured a glass. This was the only thing he could think of to hold his older brother over until they got back. Now, Hunter would be the most annoying person ever but it was the best choice. For some reason. He walked back over to Hunter, he'd laid back, his breathing was short and shallow. "Drink this." Tech held out the glass.

Hunter opened his eyes, he barely had enough time to process what was in the glass before Tech had forced him to down it. "Whiskey?" Hunter coughed, whincing and pressing his hand against his wound.

"Yes." Tech poured another and held it out.

"Uh, Tech, can't say alcohol is going to help him any." Echo raised an eyebrow watching as Tech poured him a third glass. "Like, at all Tech." Echo's voice strained. Wrecker looked around the Marauder, that's why Tech had Echo power down the Marauder

Tech helped Hunter lay back down. He grabbed his helmet, putting it on before looking back to Echo, "Hunter is still in pain, alcohol will at least dull some of that pain until we return with proper equipment." It was clear Tech wasn't going to take Echo's objections.

"With only three shots?" Echo had seen Fives down at least eight before a blaster shot wasn't so bad.

"Ha, yeah, his lightweight ass can't handle more than that." Wrecker laughed as the main door opened and he walked down the ramp. Though he'd joked, Wrecker felt a great deal of worry. If they had to leave before Hunter had sobered up, the electromagnetic frequencies of the Marauder would be enough to completely overwhelm Hunter. Wrecker didn't want Hunter to be in more pain. He looked back to Tech, he was worrying about the same exact thing.

Crosshair stepped out of the refresher to a silent ship, he noticed someone had cut the lights and he spent the entire time coming up with the perfect comeback, but no one was here. "Figures." He rolled his eyes.

"Cross-" A giddy voice whispered. Crosshair looked around, "Cross, psst-" Crosshair turned and walked over to Hunter, who was laying on the big mattress. Tech must've finished patching him up and they all left?

"Hey, Hunter," Crosshair mumbled as he scanned the area, an empty shot glass, "Where'd everyone go?" He asked. Hunter's eyes were closed, Crosshair reached out, poking his brother's face, his cheeks were hot and flushed.

"-Cross can I tell you something?" Hunter whispered, opening his eyes. Crosshair let out a sigh as he checked the dressing on Hunter's wounds. "Cross-"

"Yes, Hunter?" Crosshair rolled his eyes as he continued to do a quick check-up on his vitals.

"I love you," Hunter reached out, poking Crosshair's shoulder, "Love ya, Cross," He whispered, narrowing his eyes. Crosshair stifled a chuckle, "Like a lot too, I don't think I've told you this, but I love you more than I love my hair and my knives, and I really love my hair and my knives-"

"That..." Crosshair's voice trailed, looking over to his oldest brother, he still had that stupid content smile on his face. Seems like he got Tech's special treatment plan. "You should lie down." He gently pushed Hunter back. He went willingly of course; Crosshair pulled the blanket up nice and high the way Hunter liked it.

"Okay but first you have to promise me something."

"Okay..."

"Promise me you won't let Tech cut my hair with my knives," Hunter sat back up, eyes wide and waving his accusing finger, "I can see it in his eyes, he's just jealous cause my hair is really, really nice and his isn't-" He hung his head, his eyes became really heavy all of a sudden. Crosshair stared at him, making a face, did Hunter just fall asleep? Crosshair poked his brother's face again and jumped back when Hunter shot up.

"Pinky promise me, Crosshair."

"That's your middle finger, Hunter."

"Middle finger promise me, Cross"

This time Crosshair let out a laugh, no one was here except the two of them and he knew for a fact Hunter's ass was not going to remember any of this, "I middle finger promise, Hunter, now please lay down." Hunter nodded and leaned back, closing his eyes. Crosshair stood there for a moment, a lingering smile still on his face.

"I'd be bald and knifeless for you," was the last thing Hunter mumbled before falling asleep.

Crosshair rolled his eyes, pulling the blanket a little higher, "Love you too," He mumbled before leaving his brother to sleep. Crosshair was against the wall next to the big mattress playing on Tech's datapad when the door of the Marauder opened. Crosshair looked to Hunter, who had also woken up, Crosshair nodded to Hunter before he stood up. "Have fun," Crosshair patted Echo on the shoulder.

Hunter sat up and looked over, "Hi guys!" He waved, "You all look so grown up, I'm so proud of all of you." He held his arms out, gesturing them to come to him. Crosshair shoved his brothers toward Hunter. Wrecker laughed as he got on the mattress and let Hunter hug the three of them. "You guys went and got me medicine too?" Hunter felt weepy, "You guys didn't have to do that for me-"

Echo looked to Cross, understanding what he meant. "Hunter you're bleeding-"

"And you care that I'm bleeding," Hunter cried as he pulled them closer, "You guys are the best brothers ever-"

Crosshair as the Ice Vulture. A survivalist, who picks at scraps because he has to. Looked up at with disdain and no small amount of fear, but ultimately dismissed as a real threat to the Empire. Persistent as he flies above head, as he sticks to a goal.

And lonely, so lonely, facing up against an Imperial Lieutenant that sees him as nothing but a tool. Feeling like he was abandoned by his brothers, shunned by his peers. Circling his path on his own. So tragically, terribly alone.

#things that have the same emotional mental physical feeling of chewing glass #the shot of the vulture over his head. the music. I’m hhfhdhehfhdhhe #seen the argument that the empire is the vulture. always circling. uncaring and inevitable. i can see it but nah it’s more crosshair #ruthless persistent hunting crosshair who’s finally diving down for the kill. finally fighting back even if it means his death #tbb #the bad batch #the bad batch spoilers #sw #Star Wars #z speaks

Hey @enigmatist17 your clone tier list is great!

Rank Tier Reasoning:

S+ - Impactful (These characters' appearances/story arc live rent free in my brain and I cannot get enough of them)

S - Underutilized Potential (These characters could have their own show and rise to S+ specifically on their own strengths if people actually gave them the chance)

A - Interesting Concept (There's something to these characters that could be further explored in many interesting ways)

B - Could Be Built Upon/Needed More Screen-time (I don't feel a particular connection to these characters due to how quickly they came and went but there's potential there too)

C - There's Something There/Needs More Work (These characters mean very little to me but I acknowledge they can either grow or have grown writing-wise)

D - Unchanging Characterization/Poorly Written 'Cool Guy' (Has literally experienced no character growth and runs on one singular trait that is better written in other characters, and has remained detestable in my books even if they are a fandom favourite)

#star wars #the clone wars #the bad batch #I am very particular about the characters I am fond of and they have to fit a certain criteria #I begrudgingly admit TBB S2 raised my expectations of Tech and Crosshair #specifically because Tech was capable of sacrificing himself for the greater good of his team #and (if what people have been gushing about on twitter and tumblr is true) Crosshair has actually grown exponentially as a character #Wrecker was always fine in my books (despite the fandom/writing team continuously infantilizing him) #It's Hunter who hasn't changed at all and he's still the prick I immediately disliked when he was introduced in season 7 of TCW #All the power to whoever likes him and can see the potential in him #lord knows I can see the potential in my own favorites that a lot of people don't see or find detestable

i don't hate this sequel media where the main character is a woman (compared to the og media where the main character is a man) actually. i think you guys are just kind of misogynist.

#look. literally no one is perfect literally everyone has biases no matter whether they're internal or not. #however. you need to accept that you have those biases and work to be better #because you cannot constantly be blaming it on bad writing when if it was the og male character with the same writing you would love it. #this is about #star wars #legend of korra #13th doctor #'the timeless child are was horrible' i can guarantee you that a majority of you would have Loved it if david tennant was the doctor at the #time. #also on literally every single fucking post i see about 13. EVERY SINGLE ONE. there is a comment ab how the writing did her dirty. #compared to other seasons and episodes where the writing was also iffy but the doctor was a man. where you see almost 0 of those comments. #you don't have to constantly say it's bad writing. #im not accusing you of being totally misogynist. but there is SO MUCH internal bias that i see that you refuse to acknowledge. #you need to fucking accept that and think 'if this character was a man would i like her better' because the answer to that is almost always #yes. #you would. and that's. not fine. but as long as you can accept that and WORK on those biases. #sorry just. jesus christ i'm so fucking tired. #discourse

Just rewatched aotc and honestly I’m in awe of how good the aliens looked especially in comparison to 2023 Star Wars aliens

#like there was clearly EFFORT put into the kaminoans they did look alien #and the detail on the geonosians was actually incredible #even background characters like Shaak Ti or Mas Amedda look good #and then in 2023 Hera Syndulla looks like her face is made of plastic Ahsoka has no montrals Thrawn looks like A Guy painted blue #god the maximum profit minimum people minimum risk business model really kills artistic expression #George Lucas’s stuff wasn’t always good but you could tell that it was made with love and care and effort every bit of it #it used cutting edge cgi that honestly isn’t even that bad today especially when compared to modern stuff and the costuming was great #and the cinematography wasn’t MCU washed out default shit #god im sorry prequels can we go back #star wars #sw aotc #aotc #star wars attack of the clones #attack of the clones

How it started:

How it ended up:

I just can’t get over how Hunter went from being just a war-hardened veteran to showing so much tender love and affection for a tiny human, for whom he would undoubtedly go to war. He has made himself a safe place for her, validating her feelings, being an anchor for her, and allowing her to be completely vulnerable around him with no judgment. I also love how he lets his own guard down and allows himself to be vulnerable in front of her, thus being someone she can feel completely safe around. Man, I can’t imagine how he would react if she told him everything she went through on Kamino. He would be so much more protective of her.

(Bonus: If you look at the 3rd gif in this post you too can fawn over Omega’s lil puppy dog eyes bc SHE’S SO CUTE OMG???? 🥺)

#star wars #the bad batch #tbb #clone force 99 #tbb omega #the best girl #tbb hunter #the best dad #your honor I love them #Hunter will always be the best dad to his little girl and no one can convince me otherwise #they deserve the galaxy and more

okay regardless of any possible relationships with the batch, phee and hondo definitely know each other carnally

probably they were young lovers and then too career-focused (piracy and treasure-hunting) for a committed relationship and too intense at each other for cohabitation but they're best fucking friends and whenever they meet they drink and hook up and gossip and it's like they've never been apart

there's been a couple times they've been after the same thing and they take turns "betraying" each other it's always a big thing and hondo's gang always has space popcorn ready. they're both theater kids at heart, but hondo's the more dramatic actor while phee's more subtle, but there's always plenty of banter and an inevitable witty one-liner as they sail away with the treasure. one time there was a duel with actual swords

and I'm not saying there's a weequay/human ohnaka/genoa kid/teen out there either adopted by some suburban family who has no idea what to do with this chaos child but fully supports them or taken under hondo's metaphorical wing as his loyal miniature second in command who is absolutely not allowed in any sort of dangerous situation until they're truly and properly an adult what does he look like a criminal? but I'm not not saying that either

kinda really want hondo to show up in tbb and kinda really want to see him interact with phee now

#/incoherent noises/ #star wars the clone wars #the bad batch #phee genoa #hondo ohnaka #phee/hondo #hondo/phee #tbb season 2 #she's cid's wife now but it's a queerplatonic marriage #cid supports her following her dreams while judging her taste in men from afar #cid standing there with crossed arms as she flirts with tech: you can do better #hunter: excuse? #cid: its phee she can always do better #also phee is bi your honor #and while we're at it so is tech thank you for coming to my tedtalk

Oh this is a headcanon that could spawn some Drama:

Every Jedi objectum for their lightsaber(s)

#“this is your life you must never lose it’’ give it a kiss #mace windu and his interior switch so only force-sensitives can turn it on #Obi-wan keeping his master’s lightsaber until Luke can rework it to be his own #Anakin “bad at healthy relationships’’ Skywalker always losing his #I guess it’d be more objectum for the crystal but whatever #objectum #not gonna Star Wars main tag those though
