In the clearing stands a boxer
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of ev'ry glove that laid him down
Or cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame
"I am leaving, I am leaving"
But the fighter still remains
@meheeners all the jedi are conditioned from birth due to being raised in conditions of extreme privilege after being forcibly taken from their parents and they are BOUGIE 👏 AS 👏 HELL 👏 and this leads to attitudes like obi-wans "hmmm i didn't lie it's just from a certain point of view"
am i saying that the jedi order deserved to be toppled because affluenza?
....
well yes.
but i ain't wrong
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,
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
and if that's not your cuppa
can i interest you in the one fanmix i've made that i'm genuinely proud of,
"That Slave Boy All Grown", a lightly southern gothic flavored #darthvader mix?
anyway i actually uploaded the mix for this terrible fanfiction

"IT'S LEITMOTIF" i scream as yet another mix of calamari inkantation falls out of my pockets,
