Multifandom/personal blog, but heavy on Star Wars. Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi are my OTP to end all OTPs, I ship Ahsoka/Rex as well, and love all things related to the Obi-Wan/Ahsoka/Anakin family unit.
My GIFS and other edits are under the 'mine' link below.
Favorite Quote (Part 1):
The dark is generous, and it is patient. It is the dark that seeds cruelty into justice, that drips contempt into compassion, that poisons love with grains of doubt.
The dark can be patient, because the slightest drop of rain will cause those seeds to sprout.
The rain will come and the seeds will sprout, for the dark is the soil in which they grow, and it is the clouds above them, and it waits behind the star that gives them life.
The dark’s patience is infinite.
Eventually, even stars burn out. […]
The dark is generous, and it is patient, and it always wins- but in the heart of its strength lies weakness: one lone candle is enough to hold it back.
Love is more than a candle.
Love can ignite the stars.

Favorite Relationship: Anakin Skywalker & Obi-Wan Kenobi
“For all the finks and jukes you’ve taken me through, there’s no one else I’d rather fly with.”
Anakin canted his head and smiled. “It’s about time you admitted it. Can I take that to mean you’ll follow my lead without question?”
“To the best of my ability,” Obi-Wan said. “I may not always be able to remain at your wing, but I won’t be far off, and I’ll always have your back.”
“When I call for help, you’ll come speeding to the rescue.”
“The day you call for help, I’ll know we’re both in over our heads.”
Anakin adopted a serious look. “Obi-Wan, you don’t know how many times you’ve already rescued me.”
Obi-Wan swallowed the lump that formed in his throat. “Then whatever lies ahead for us shouldn’t be a problem.”

Favorite Prequel Trilogy Movie: Revenge of the Sith
“This story happened a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. It is already over. Nothing can be done to change it.
It is a story of love and loss, brotherhood and betrayal, courage and sacrifice and the death of dreams. It is a story of the blurred line between our best and worst.
It is the story of an end of an age. […]
This is how twenty-five millennia come to a close. Corruption and treachery have crushed a thousand years of peace. This is not just the end of a republic; night is falling on civilization itself.
This is the twilight of the Jedi.
The end starts now.” ~ Revenge of the Sith Novelization by Matthew Stover
Favorite Original Movie: The Empire Strikes Back
“I’m looking for a great warrior.”
“Oh, ‘great warrior?’ Wars not make one great.”
Favorite Female Character (Part Two of Two): Leia Organa
“I don’t know who you are, or where you came from, but from now on, you’ll do as I tell you- okay?”
Favorite Female Character (Part One of Two): Ahsoka Tano
“If there’s one thing I’ve learned from you, Master, it’s that following direct orders isn’t always the best way to solve a problem.”
Favorite Male Character (Part Three of Three): Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader
“This is Anakin Skywalker: The most powerful Jedi of his generation. Perhaps of any generation. The fastest. The strongest. An unbeatable pilot. An unstoppable warrior. On the ground, in the air or sea or space, there is no one even close. He has not just power, not just skill, but dash: that rare, invaluable combination of boldness and grace. He is the best there is at what he does. The best there has ever been. And he knows it. HoloNet features call him the Hero With No Fear. And why not? What should he be afraid of?
Except… fear lives inside him anyway, chewing away the fire-walls around his heart. […]
That is the kind of fear that lives inside Anakin Skywalker: the dragon of that dead star. It is an ancient, cold dead voice within his heart that whispers ‘All things die.’ In bright day he can’t hear it; battle, a mission, even a report before the Jedi Council, can make him forget it’s even there.But at night…at night the walls he has built sometimes start to frost over. Sometimes they start to crack.
At night, the dead-star dragon sometimes sneaks through the cracks and crawls up into his brain and chews at the inside of his skull. The dragon whispers of what Anakin has lost. And what he will lose. The dragon reminds him, every night, of how he held his dying mother in his arms, of how she had spent her last strength to say ‘I knew you would come for me, Anakin…”
The dragon reminds him, every night, that someday he will lose Obi-Wan. He will lose Padmé. Or they will lose him.
‘All things die, Anakin Skywalker. Even stars burn out…’

Favorite Male Character (Part Two of Three): Luke Skywalker
“I am a Jedi, like my father before me.”
Favorite Male Character (Part One of Three): Obi-Wan Kenobi
“This is Obi-Wan Kenobi: A phenomenal pilot who doesn’t like to fly. A devastating warrior who’d rather not fight. A negotiator without peer who frankly prefers to sit alone in a quiet cave and meditate. Jedi Master. General in the Grand Army of the Republic. Member of the Jedi Council.
And yet, inside, he feels like he’s none of these things. Inside, he still feels like a Padawan. […]
Being named to the Council came as a complete surprise; even now, he is sometimes astonished by the faith the Jedi Council has in his abilities, and the credit they give to his wisdom.
Greatness was never his ambition. He wants only to perform whatever task he is given to the best of his ability.”
