I Need To Remind Myself Of This. Thanks Tumblr I Needed That.

can you imagine if Anakin had actually died in Order 66, defending the temple - almost everyone else's perspective remains the same, except Obi-Wan's and Padme's. Obi-Wan comes back from Utapau, still warned by Yoda, still insistent to find out the truth, only to see footage of Anakin being shot in the back by his own men. Padme waits on the balcony for Anakin, but he never walks through her door again. For the rest of her life, some part of her always expects to hear a familiar energetic knock at any moment.

Much like with Obi-Wan and Vader, some part of Obi-Wan never accepts it at all. To Obi-Wan, Anakin is always just out of sight in the corner, tinkering with a droid. He knows that Anakin is dead; that Anakin died alone on the grimy, cold floor of the Temple. This is a fact. But still, in Obi-Wan's mind, Anakin is simply just out of sight with a droid.

Fixin’ up some droids.

Just realized that the reason I love making friends on tumblr is because it’s exactly how you make friends on the playground as a six year old. No, I don’t know their name but they love mermaids too and built this awesome sand castle. No, I don’t know their age but their imaginary cheetah is friends with mine. You like this show? You like this character?? You can sing the theme song really loud??? Here is a flower crown. Here is a juice box. You can share my time and I might never see you again but part of you stays in my soul forever. In my mind we’re still on the swing set and the sky is blue and nothing will ever be wrong again.

💚Beautiful World💙

"I never thought that I was that strong…"

ive been seeing a new wave of transmedicalists lately I think we gotta start being vocal again about how nasty they are. you don't need to take hormones or have surgery to be a trans person. changing your name and pronouns is gender affirming care. wearing new clothes and hair and makeup is part of transitioning too. you dont need to pass to be trans, you don't need to be male or female.

nonbinary, agender, genderfluid, genderqueer people are trans too if that's a label they want to use for themselves. and anyone who says otherwise is a piece of shit. it's not "anti-transitioning" to say so, it's anti-telling other people what to do with their bodies. it's pro-minding your own fucking business and letting people do what they want with their gender and treating them with compassion and enthusiasm

Oh man. I was a wee lil' lassie of around 11yo when I discovered fandom. I was mostly a reader at the start, on FanFiction.com and I remember the big all capital letters in bold saying, "I DON'T OWN [FRANCHISE/CHARACTERS]!! THEY BELONG TO [CREATOR]! THIS IS JUST FOR FUN I MAKE NO MONEY OF THIS!!"

Sure I didn't understand at first (being too young and with English as a second language) but once I dipped my toes into the fanfiction writing I honestly just copied what older cooler kids were doing and put disclaimers. It's so fascinating reading on history behind these disclaimers.

So I’m on AO3 and I see a lot of people who put “I do not own [insert fandom here]” before their story.

Like, I came on this site to read FAN fiction. This is a FAN fiction site. I’m fully aware that you don’t own the fandom or the characters. That’s why it’s called FAN FICTION.

I mean I couldn't keep her hanging could I ^\\\^

Look they have gay cowboys!! I want me some gay cowboys sometimes! Gay cowgirls too!

I just want Mrs. Zeppeli to sing stupid Mozzarella song and dance to it as well to woo her paralysed girlfriend okay?

I'm a pan but my inner lesbian is squealing for this.

Oh yeah, Gyro and Gyra would hate each other's guts to no end.

It's not easy being the Chosen One
