I love when the clones are somewhat mandalorians by culture but seriously if I have to read one more time “the mandalorians were all blond and pale, thin and slander, not like us, the vod’e were too broad with dark skin” mandalorians adopt absolutely anything and everything why do you make the clones feel like they can’t ever be accepted as mandalorians cause of their ethnicity??? This galaxy is the epitome of diversity, racism against clones exist, specism exist, but at least wait for the empire to write about racism between humans pls
and then he goes to tatooine and has a cute dinner date with CODY AND EVERYTHING IS FINE
May the Force be with you, always.
one star war viewing experience that i think has been totally 100% lost to time / cultural dominance: obi-wan being a mysterious and lowkey dubious figure in a new hope. he’s introduced doing this absolutely terrifying screech (which he never does again? before or since?), in a cloak with his face covered (classic villain coding, also very close to the emperor’s exact look) and this comes after a build up of him being some “old wizard” luke is told is dead, that he shouldn’t be going to see at all—and his dialogue only raises more questions than answers. a big part of it is alec guinness’ expert ptsd performance, of course, but there’s such a real strangeness to obi-wan’s debut. he’s a mentor, but he’s also a hardened warrior, also a deliverer of some incredibly ominous lines, also a disembodied voice, an undead, unkillable entity. i don’t think it was some accident that the “fake twist” used to hide the real twist in empire was that obi-wan killed luke’s father, is all i’m saying really. i think there’s an undercurrent in anh that, as the jedi/obi-wan/star war grew in popular culture and the light side/dark side lore got more ironed out, isn’t really accessible now. but it’s fun

Obi-Wan is helmet-blind I've decided. He cannot tell the difference between Cody with and Cody without his helmet, only seeing his darling sunshine.
Bingo card under the cut
same. joined the codywan fandom before seeing TCW, so now I'm watching to figure out wtf happened, but mostly to do the above
Rewatching star wars clone wars and watch me dissect every micro-interaction between cody and obiwan
the Writer Mood™ when you've got the shadow of a concept of a scene and a couple lines of dialogue bouncing around in your head like a screensaver and you have to be like buddy, come back when you're something coherent. i can't do anything with this.
another clones in formula 1 onesies doodle this time w cody
you're killing me with this
everything we had, everything we did is buried in dust, and this dust is all that's left of us
you can get a print here
im convinced that if obi wan so much as coughed during one of their duels, dooku would somehow spawn a bed, warm blanket, soup, tea, and a damp cloth into existence and go full grandma on him
Cody, barging into Obi-Wan's hut on Tatooine in full 'trooper armor: this is NOT the retirement home you promised me, General
Obi-Wan, alarmed that an imperial 'trooper has found his hiding place: what-
Cody, dragging in his luggage behind him: it'll do
