Hi all! So last month I held a little competition to celebrate reaching 900 followers and @sophiegaladheon was the winner! She asked for a drawing of Padmé in her super fancy blue velvet Senate Gown (from a deleted AOTC scene, you can find more info here). I hope I did her justice!
For those of you who entered my comp last time but didn’t win, I’m actually (incredibly!! <3) nearly at 1,000 followers now, so I think I’ll be holding another one soon if you’d like to try your luck again! :)
At least he had Master Kenobi’s company for a little while. She was sure that accounted for his relief
They cheered each other up, those two. No matter how dire the straits, Anakin and Master Kenobi always managed to find a joke, a laugh, some way to ease the tension and pressure of the moment. ~ [x]
‘lol’ is sardonic and self deprecating, while ‘haha’ is unbothered and flat, ‘hehe’ is cheeky, flirty, and coquettish, and ‘😂’ has a sort of vintage charm
We’d like to take a moment to appreciate stunt choreographer Nick Gillard and how his insight shaped not only the entire fight sequence between Anakin and Obi-Wan in Episode III, but Matthew Stover’s words in the movie’s novelization. (x)
“Obi is taking it and taking it, and hoping it’ll lead to a point where Anakin will run out of steam.” - NG
“Anakin followed, constantly attacking; Obi-Wan again gave ground…Mustafar hummed with death behind his back, only a moment away, somewhere out there among the rivers of molten rock. Obi-Wan let Anakin drive him toward it. It was a place, he decided, they should reach together.”
“That toe-to-toe thing shows that they can’t get through each other’s defenses, because they know each other’s moves so intimately. I think it’s something like forty moves, I did the first eight then I let them go with it.” - NG
“Blade-to-blade, they were identical. After thousands of hours in lightsaber sparring, they knew each other better than brothers, more intimately than lovers; they were complementary halves of a single warrior.”
“My take was that Obi is the central character in that duel. He wouldn’t try and kill Anakin.“
"The ruthless look on Hayden’s face - the ‘You can’t beat me, Master’ attitude - said it all. In that fight, Anakin knows that Obi is not going to kill him…”
- NG
“In every exchange, Obi-Wan gave ground. It was his way. And he knew that to strike Anakin down would burn his own heart to ash.”
She/Her. Star Wars obsessive - stuck in my Obi-Wan feels. I gush into the void about books @ wayfarerreads. Occasionally obsessing over 2ha, Word of Honor, TGCF, + other Danmei novels/donghua/etc, Elder Scrolls, Lord of the Rings, She Ra, Voltron, the Untamed, Sailor Moon, & the Witcher
