Okay but Fennec and Boba were both notorious bounty hunters in the employ of the Hutts so imagine Boba Fett finding her body like “FENNEC SHAND???” and Fennec waking up like “BOBA FETT???”

I feel like this is how Grievous himself would keep battle droids out of places he doesn't want them sticking their weirdly elongated Borzoi snoots.

You know it’s actually quite interesting that Anakin refers to the Tuskens as men, women and children instead of male, female and offspring. You wouldn’t call a male animal a man, but Anakin knows the Tuskens are persons. Cliegg says they “walk like men,” implying he thinks they’re not actually people, but Anakin rationalizes that they’re “like animals” because he knows they’re not actually mindless monsters. Even Padmé doesn’t recognize the Tuskens’ personhood, since she assumed Anakin felt guilty over how he felt rather than what he did. Anakin, though, saw the Tuskens for what they were and chose to slaughter them anyway.
Exactly!! I said the same thing here (in the thread about the Tusken’s sentience following the Mandalorian episode they appear in):
Tumblr media
“Even Padmé doesn’t recognize the Tuskens’ personhood, since she assumed Anakin felt guilty over how he felt rather than what he did.”
Oh, that’s an excellent remark. I had never thought about it in those terms but yes: Padmé saying ‘to be angry is to be human’ isn’t meant to reassure Anakin that his actions weren’t that bad - it’s to reassure him that he’s not wrong to feel, as though what he did with those feelings was inconsequential. 
Which in turns adds an interesting layer to Padmé and Anakin’s relationship: Padmé, like many people, misunderstands Jedi philosophy - and so she gives advice and reassurance that completely miss the mark. First, when she asks Anakin if he’s even allowed to love - to which Anakin gives a very pertinent answer, but then their relationship still devolves into them both convincing each other that What They Feel Isn’t Wrong, which isn’t the issue - and again here when she tells him that he shouldn’t be ashamed of feeling negative emotions - when she should have told him that it’s never too late to stop acting on negative emotions.
Because the Order never said negative emotions were something to be ashamed of (just something to be kept in check and to be overcome), and Anakin didn’t actually think that they preached emotional repression, and he wasn’t feeling guilty because he was angry and he thought he shouldn't be according to The Jedi Doctrine: he was feeling guilty because he slaughtered people - the innocent along with the guilty, without mercy and with complete abandon, taking pleasure in it. 
So yeah, I agree that Anakin was perfectly on the clear about what he did.
He wasn’t stupid, and he was a trained empath. He knew the difference between a person and an animal.

"The Jedi are first shown being sent to intimidate a corporate chairman into doing what the government wants! They're literally space cops!" Except no, they were sent to NEGOTIATE. They weren't going to pull out their lightsabers. It's like Yoda said, a Jedi does not attack. They only defend. And when do Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan whip out their lightsabers? WHEN THEY GET ATTACKED BY BATTLE DROIDS. The Clone Wars is about how they BECAME forceful status quo-maintainers, not how they always were.
The Jedi do have some authoritive powers that are somewhat similar to police, but even GL has explicitly said that they’re not the police, and we even see in the show itself, that there are police forces that exist, like Tan Divo is a character that is specifically an actual space police officer who does the job of the police. The Jedi are the ones who are called in to negotiate or when the Senate thinks only a Jedi can handle the job, and it’s exactly as you say--when Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan go to negotiate with the Trade Federation, it’s very clearly as negotiators, it’s not until the room is filled with poison gas that they bring out their lightsabers, as if they’re supposed to not defend themselves?  They weren’t there to intimidate the Trade Federation, they were there as best a neutral party that could be found for such a thing. And, yes, having the Jedi in this role is part of Palpatine’s plan to bring doom to the Jedi and I agree that it was what led to their genocide, but that’s not the same thing as saying the Jedi had readily available better choices, because the set-up of the Clone Wars shows very, very clearly that the Senate blackballed anyone who didn’t play by their rules.  Mandalore refuses to join?  Okay, they get blacklisted for trade and have to turn to the black market, which invites even further chaos and doom onto them.  Is that right or fair or anything other than infuriating?  Of course it’s not!  But that’s also the system they’re working with. For the Jedi to have avoided the trap, they would have had to step back from the war because the Senate would have forced them into an all-or-nothing position, either you fight as we want you to fight (which also included not having people like Tarkin in charge of the war and the clones, which also includes helping the people of Ryloth from enslavement, it means helping Mon Calamari from enslavement, it means helping Kiros from enslavement, it means helping Naboo not be chemical warfare’d out of existence, etc., like they were just supposed to ignore that?) because they were literally drafted into the war, to avoid it, they would have had to burn those bridges, which would have meant they had no power to help anyone other than on a very individual level. The Jedi became part of the problem in the clone wars, but the reason they did so was so they could help in any way at all, and that doesn’t mean it’s the right answer or the right path, but it was their only feasible path forward, if they didn’t want to just abandon the galaxy to the Separatists who, yes, were far, far worse and would have plunged the galaxy into exactly what the Empire became.  If you take the conflict in good faith (rather than assuming there’s a Sith Lord controlling both sides so that the conflict is the point, rather than which side wins), if you only have character-level information, then the Jedi’s choices seem really empathetic and understandable, that when you have Shitty Choice A and Shitty Choice B, the answer isn’t Shitty Choice C Where You Help No One.

Grievous’ entire collection must be so fricken haunted. Imagine the fic
*slaps general grievous’ robot shoulder* this bad boy can fit so many ghosts in it
he can’t see any of them though because in my head he has like, the absolute bare minimum of force sensitivity that a living person can have. these lightsaber ghosts are down to humiliatingly standard ghost activity. how many times have you got to push a drink off a table like an unruly cat before he gets the idea. they build up enough energy to slash a few b1 droids to pieces one night and grievous wakes up, sees b1 droids that have been destroyed by his own lightsabers, and is like huh i forgot i did that. must be tuesday

Some Ronderu headcanons: Ronderu wakes up every day and chooses to be feral. She’s spent enough time traveling from city to city to know what social norms are and she will look you dead in the eye as she picks a beetle out of her hair and pops it into her mouth. She speaks with a mockingly posh Kaleela accent which she somehow manages to enunciate perfectly while talking with a mouth full of raw squirrel. She will go days without bathing, but religiously maintains her hair, which simultaneously looks like a rat’s nest and smells amazing all the time, an art she has perfected to a science. She’s never actually committed an act of cannibalism but she implies otherwise when people get on her nerves
Tumblr media
i literally love feral Ronderu now thank you so much

If I had to pick the absolute worst casting for a live action Bad Batch:
-Henry Cavill as Hunter. Generic good-looking guy who can pull of long hair and brooding, no other qualifications necessary.
Bruce Willis as Tech. Had the perfect hairline for Tech a decade or so ago; they can glue on a wig to achieve the same effect.
Benedict Cumberbatch as Crosshair. Facial structure somehow matches Crosshair’s insane proportions and he’s also a jerk in real life.
Dwayne Johnson as Wrecker. In the ballpark of an appropriate casting choice at least, since he’s Polynesian, but to ensure absolutely nothing good comes out of this adaptation, it is utterly ruined by dubbing him over with… wait for it… Larry the Cable Guy.
Jojo Siwa as Omega. Big name child celebrity who’s too old for the role but young enough the studio can pretend she isn’t.
Dee Bradley Baker as Rex. Just throwing out the entire pretense of caring about anything any more.
And the absolute worst for last: Andy Serkis as Echo, who is fully CGI
hi i’m gonna need a warning next time this just reached through my screen and shot me point blank
BRUCE WILLIS????????

I just came across your "Yoda ships Anakin and Aayla" headcanon and I love it. That's hysterical.
My best take on Star Wars. I stand by it.

What exactly is the thing with Eponine and Montparnasse? Are they off-and-on-again? Is it one-sided? Do we know what he sees in her?
GOOD QUESTION 
there isn’t really a single answer? 
we aren’t given a lot of info in canon! In fact pretty much the only mention of their relationship in the text is this comment around the time of the Gorbeau Raid: 
“Is everything ready?” said Jondrette. “Yes,” replied the thin man. “Where is Montparnasse?” “The young principal actor stopped to chat with your girl.”
....
“ Montparnasse had, in fact, encountered Éponine as she stood on the watch under the trees of the boulevard, and had led her off, preferring to play Nemorin with the daughter rather than Schinderhannes with the father. It was well that he did so. He was free. “ 
and then Eponine’s dialogue with him at the Rue Plumet, which is ambiguous at best.  
So they definitely know each other, and Montparnasse would rather flirt with Eponine --at least sometimes-- than rob a man with the gang, sometimes  (which ties in to his reluctance to work, maybe?).  He also says repeatedly ( during the Rue Plumet attack) that he’d be willing to cut her throat. Mixed messages at best!  So the relationship is really very up to interpretation. 
Montparnasse has much clearer loyalties to Thenardier, as part of the P-M, being the one who really insists on waiting for him during the prison breakout. He may like to slack off around Eponine, but he’s actually helpful to the other members of the gang...Sometimes.

How did Katara’s sleeves get shorter throughout the series? Did she have sets of short-sleeved wear on the off chance she would leave the south pole where she’s lived her whole life? Or did she cut them shorter as they traveled to warmer climates? And they didn’t fray?
Everybody got new clothes from the costume department. 
Yeah, Idunno. 
Tumblr media
My best case is she was wearing lots of layers when she was in theSouth Pole and just added/removed layers as needed.
