I'm sorry but they had way better chemistry than Princess Leia and Han Solo. Plus they weren't even supposed to be siblings, it was originally supposed to be a love triangle and Luke's sister was somebody else.


I mean, if someone said that to me, I'd smack them in the face.
I don't really like Han. In any of the movies. Especially not the first.
Fight me.

If ESB didn't take place three years after ANH I would hate their romance even more for being so rushed.

SO now if you ever see one of those Mary Sue Rey debates and someone points how how quickly she learned how to use a lightsaber and someone refutes with "Well Luke learned really fast too!"...he didn't. After three years of training he still didn't stand a chance against Vader.
I need to be quiet before i go on a rant :D

That stinks

Half of them asked ME to RP with THEM and they STILL dropped it!
And I really loved a lot of those ideas and I'll never find someone else to RP them with me.


Look, I know I don't get triggered very much but I feel like this is what it feels like. I just can't see those things being done to ten-year-olds and NOT have any sort of reaction other than my current ones. And to think that this is one of my favorite characters from this series. I can never look at him the same way again, knowing that all these things have been done to him.

I mean, everyone in the fandom sort of knew he was raped in the cult, but this chapter flat-out confirms that and shows us. And I can't see him the same way after knowing he was raped. I honestly feel bad shipping him with people now.

my boyfriend and I sometimes struggle to be on the same page when it comes to comforting- often i just want to vent and don’t need advice, whereas validation confuses him and he wants a plan of action
to counter this, we’ve come up with a system where we ask: “do you want advice, empathy, both or neither?”
if it’s just advice, i know to go straight to action points and not spend time on fluffy words
if it’s just empathy, he knows i want to be reassured and comforted and that’s all
if it’s both, it’s time for advice that recognises how hard the situation is and is perhaps gentler in nature
if it’s neither, just a hug is really good
i recommend trying to use this in your lives! it makes sure you’re giving and getting what you need, and reduces the risk of resentment or similar

Me: "Oooh, he does!"
Mom: "You don't know who she is, don't pretend!"
Me: "Yeah I do, she's Mina Harker's best friend and was super fashionable and ditzy. She was the first woman Dracula bites when he terrorizes London but everyone thinks she has anemia and bury her. She comes back as a vampire and attacks people and the characters keep trying to subdue her, but she keeps coming back looking worse and worse until they finally stake her in the chest,"
Mom: "....."
Me: "...."
Mom: "....."
Me: "...."
Me: "I've read Dracula too, you know!"


AKA I am so freaking bored right now. I feel like I'm about to die from boredom.

Me: "Oh I think this character is bisexual! Canonically they've shown interest in male and female characters and the creator is thought to be bisexual themselves and they modeled this character after themselves, so I think it'd be great if we got some positive bi rep in this series!"
Everyone else in the fandom: "That's dumb. There's no way they're bisexual. Clearly they're straight,"
Person: "I think this character is genderfluid just because they crossdress in a time period where they were needed to do so to survive!"
Me: "I think this character is transgendered because they keep saying they don't feel like the gender they look like and constantly reject aspects of that gender. Their family dislikes this and keeps trying to dress them up and treat them as their dead gender. At the end of the series they are extremely confident in their body, representing a successful change,"
Everyone else in the fandom: "That is literally so offensive to trans people??? Like just because a character acts like they hate their gender doesn't automatically make them trans!!!"
Me: -.-

Mom: "That is one of my most favorite plot elements! Like a vampire who is a vampire hunter! The apple doesn't fall far from the tree!"
Me: "NO WAIT MOM IT'S FOR A FRIEND"
