do you think the birth families of the jedi mourned when they heard the news about order 66. do you think they worried and that they weeped when the clone wars began and they heard that their children were going off to fight in it. do you think they looked at their calendars and kept track of how old their children had become every birthday. do you think they knew that their child was only 10 when they were murdered during order 66. do you think any jedi went out to find their birth parents after losing the only family they really knew. do you think any families sheltered other escaping jedi, knowing what likely happened to their own. do you think the families cried. do you think they mourned. do you think, even though they hadn't seen their children in years... they still weeped?

I absolutely LOVE the choice of Tales of the Underworld first episode to not explain SHIT about how Ventress died or why Quinlan was confessing his love to her. Sink or swim in the narrative, bitch, Star Wars ain't throwing you a life preserver. Phenomenal choice, zero notes, I've been hyena laughing about it all day.
“There is a moment- just one moment,” McDiarmid remembers. “It’s after Anakin’s been almost destroyed and he’s got little life in him. Palpatine has sent for the medical team and he’s waiting for them to arrive- and he just gently touches Anakin’s forehead. Sidious doesn’t have any qualities we normally associate with humanity, except he does have a master-servant relationship with Anakin. Anakin means something to him.”

Coruscant, as a concept, is so fucking cool. What if a city evolved — unchecked and unregulated — for thousands of years? What if the buildings grew so dense, so thick, that they no longer scraped the sky, but buried the earth? What would the world be like with no oceans? No life?
