I remember being so stoked for this scene my first time seeing it
he’s getting flashbacks
i've been thinking about starting a series of little snapshots from movies, of scenes or quotes that remind me of scriptures.
Star Wars definitely has touches of mysticism and religions of that nature (i.e. a balance between light and darkness), but even as a kid watching the OG trilogy, i felt like the Biblical comparisons were important too. the Force is like the Holy Spirit, who (when accepted into our being) is an invisible guide, protector, and comforter. the Jedi's situation in the Prequels reminds me of the Pharisees from Jesus' day. they let their rules and traditions blind them into essentially working for the Sith. And most importantly, Luke's message that anyone is capable of returning to the light is incredibly Biblical. just as Anakin is redeemed after so many years of darkness, anyone can be redeemed by believing on Jesus as their redeemer, no matter what they've done.

The AU I'm currently working on
One last time
He saw them for one last time
Just before their exsicuttion
Anakin put up a brave face
Comfotted her
Because she was afraid
And when their exsicution came
The stone faces they put up
Surprised even Yoda
It was their eyes
Didn't show fear, anger or hate
But pain, betrayal and sadness
Acceptance but defiance
Because they exsicution would
Happen at same time
Two clones form Curasant guard
With blasters set to kill
Walked up behind them
And positioned the guns
At their heads
Tarkin allowed them
To say their last words
They said nothing
They kept quiet
And then gave clones order to fire
Two blaster shots met their target
Two dead bodies slumped to ground
In the pool of their own blood
Clones stepped back
All aundiance left
Except Yoda
The grandmaster
Walked up to the bodies
Not caring
If underside of his robes
Were soaked in blood
He stood there
closely examining the bodies
Even though he felt
Their beautiful presences disappear
Heard the Force scream in anger
The part of him that knew
they were inocent
The part that wished
they were alive
Waited for them to wake up
For them to jump up
And scream "Prank "
For their chest to start moving
The hearts to start beating
The cold bodies to stir
It didn't happen
They laid there dead
It was so wrong
They were always on move
They were stil
The Jedi master
Noticed something glistening
He walker closed
Taking oldests hand in his
And opening it
What was inside
Partly surprised him
The other part
Already knew what he would find
A symbol of the Jedi Order
It was so tightly clutched
A taint in the form of chest
Was visible on his palm
It was made from (Kyber Cryslal and) Silver
Even after they were expelled
Even after they were thrown to wolfes
Even in his last moments
He still held true to his oath
He still believed in force

I love this fic, it's like sleep medication for me. It makes me feel so cozy. I know it's active Obikin, with what some people have problems with, but the authors writing is so GOOD. Also Eldritch Anakin.

Hi! You have drawn a lot of cats lately, so I was wondering if you could please draw my cat? I think he would look very cute in your style! If not that’s totally okay, but if you do then thank you! (I love all your art so much!) :D
(This is him, his name is Yoda!)
Yipeee yoda!! I love fluffy cats, as well as black cats, and yoda, he's so cute
The art is very simple, I'm sorry, I'm a little tired, but it doesn't stop me

THE ACOLYTE | 1.08: EPISODE 8
{☆}
A little house in the swamp
*Luke traveling back in time and meeting the Jedi Council*
Luke, describing being trained by Yoda: I miss that crazy old gremlin
The council: *going into shock at the description of their grandmaster*
This just in: Yoda cares about Anakin a lot
Here’s some (non-exhaustive) evidence:
Not “I feel young Skywalker has maybe just committed an atrocious crime.” What moves Yoda almost to tears is how much Anakin is suffering. -
Talking about Anakin and Ahsoka - you can just see the hint of a mischievous smile on his face. Yoda loves trouble. This is very high praise. -
He’s actually sorry about the whole Rako Hardeen situation and openly admits to having made a mistake to Anakin. -
Look at his smile. He’s so wholesome.
(Meanwhile, Anakin is making the face you make when your grandpa butchers a meme, or when your dad asks if he can hang out with you and your friends. This is the face of the younger family member desperately trying not to let it show that they’re astral projecting out of embarrassment at the mere thought of being seen in public with their relatives.)
(Just a few moments earlier though:)
(Anakin having super worried puppy eyes and the most pleading, concerned tone.)
(Anakin kneeling next to Yoda with Obi-Wan because they’re fretting ducklings.)
“How dare you question our frog granpa?” -
Yoda is just delighted to get some family bonding time with Anakin, and even more delighted at the prospect of getting him into trouble. It’s just precious and heartwarming and I love every single thing about it. Yoda is an absolute troll, because he asks for help by telling Anakin that he’s “very worried about him” because Anakin is about to get blamed for stuff. What a wonderful gremlin grandfather.
Troll grandpa: the continuation.
But what makes this scene is this:
Look at this!! Yoda teases Anakin about being a troublemaker, but immediately follows it with a clarification on why it’s a good thing. He makes a point to tell Anakin that he’s special and creative - not a black sheep to be shunned. He’s giving Anakin validation and warm praise, which are basically Anakin’s crack. -
And now, continuing on Anakin’s journey of faces: that one look you get when you discover that your dad used to do demolition derbies, or when you find your grandad’s martial arts trophies or something. The one look of mixed pride and disbelief at the realization that the grown-ups in your life are actually so cool, and hanging out with them is actually incredibly fun. Look at him. He’s so impressed with Yoda’s shenanigans. -
Anakin is on the foreground of Yoda’s vision of a perfect world, happily mingling with his fellow Jedi. -
Yoda’s expression when Sidious shoots lightning at Anakin in the last vision of the arc.
The symbolism here! This is Yoda, trying to keep Anakin from falling - with Sidious taunting him, saying he can’t!
And Yoda’s response?
Yoda will not be tempted into giving up on Anakin. Into letting his fear of what Anakin might do dictate his actions. He is ready to sacrifice everything to stay a true Jedi, in the light - and that means not writing off one of his own as a lost cause.
And then he freaking turns off his lightsaber - which he’d been using to absorb Sidious’ lightning while holding Anakin up - and he turns his back to a freaking Sith Lord, to protect Anakin rather than fight.
And he makes sure Anakin lands on a safe platform even as he’s being shot full of lightning. Granted, all of that last scene happens in a vision, but??? The symbolism???? The fact that Yoda doesn’t really know it’s a vision anyway???? That entire arc being about Yoda’s innermost desires, temptations and motivations so we know this has incredible weight???? Yoda refusing to give up compassion for victory???? Protecting Anakin rather than trying to kill Sidious????? Yoda. Trying so hard. To keep Anakin. From. FALLING.
*sobs*
-
And finally, because trolling is Yoda’s love language:
Yeah Anakin, why would you know anything about Senator Amidala’s personal matters? It’s not like we specifically called you here because we need you to convince her to spy on her ex or anything. What connection could the two of you possibly have? I’m just an innocent old Jedi grandpa who wouldn’t understand anything about relationships :D
(I like to think Yoda actually ships Anakin and Aayla really hard, because they’re chatting together in his vision of a perfect world. If he ever caught wind of Padmé and Anakin breaking up, he’d probably immediately start dropping heavy hints and giving really unwanted dating advice.) -
That’s all I’ve got today! Not included here, all the times Anakin goes to him for advice, and Yoda trying really hard to help even though Anakin is closing himself off.
Anyway, Palps robbed us of more adorably awkward grandpa-grandkid interactions, and I’m mad about it.
