Where I write Star Wars, return to my artistic roots, and appreciate tall ships. In between wrangling muses I have a day job and adore baking. I’m on ao3 as wishfulthinking1979.

Bail Organa believes in the Jedi. He knows how much Leia and Luke mean for them. He might not understand everything and all the specifics but he knows their importance to the Jedi. It’s not just that Luke is a child that needs protecting. It’s not just that Luke is technically the son of Bail’s friend. Of course, it is those things too, but he also knows that whatever happens, Luke and Leia are going to play huge roles in the outcome of their galaxy in the future. And he knows, he trusts and he believes in not only Obi-Wan and what he thinks, but the Jedi as a whole as well. He knows their importance and he knows their survival will also tip the outcome of their galaxy. And that’s why, even amidst the absolute fear and possible devastation of losing his beloved and only daughter, he plans to go to Luke and help Owen and Beru.

I still can’t get over that the entirety of the Obi-Wan Kenobi series wasn’t about people being awesome and badass, but about cracking them open and showing what they’re really made of at their centers.  That this was a series about showing how hope and compassion leads to the light and that the dark is miserable and will only destroy you from within and without.  That this was a series about people crying because they cared what happened to other people, that their compassion cannot be driven from them fully.  That this was a series about what you choose, what you embrace in your heart, and just a series about feelings.  It’s an incredibly emotional series, one that isn’t afraid to delve deep into the trauma and hurt of it, to show its characters in deep emotional reactions, but also understand that you have to free yourself from carrying it with you. This series understood what Star Wars is all about, that love and compassion will light the way forward for you, that holding on to something that’s not yours to keep anymore will only keep you prisoner in the dark, that emotions are intense and should be faced and acknowledged, because once you understand yourself and let go of the things dragging you down, you’re free. Thank you, Ms. Deborah Chow, for understanding the assignment and knocking it out of the fucking park.  Thank you, Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen and Moses Ingram for delivering performances that knocked the breath out of my lungs, gasping at the emotional reveals in all the right moments, and had me sobbing during that final episode. Sometimes Star Wars gets it and this show just fucking got it good.
