also darth vader is country as hell and i'll fight anyone who disagrees
you cannot understand anakin skywalker unless you take into account that he is a slave boy and that he spent those crucial formative years in poverty, in a remote place, growing up *without*
he was someone fundamentally out of place in the jedi order's luxury
he was someone fundamentally out of place in the empire's luxury
it's his son who reminds him of who he is
his son who also grew up where he did.
it's important
so not only am i saying some broad, sweeping shit that i think is core to anakin skywalker/darth vader's mental state and being and thus characterization,
i am 100% saying that anakin knows the tatooine equivalent of catfish noodling. he WILL thrust his hand into that dune and he WILL pull out dinner and obi-wan WILL be horrified because OBI-WAN KENOBI IS BOUGIE, SOMETHING THAT LED TO THE CRITICAL BREAKDOWN IN RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE TWO,
