“There’s two kinds of family,” Miara said after a moment. “There’s the kind like me and Kaeden, where you get born in the right place to the right people and you’re stuck with one another. If you’re lucky, it turns out okay. The other kind of family is the kind you find.”

“Why had it been her? She’d had that thought a hundred times since Order 66. Why had she survived? She wasn’t the most powerful; she wasn’t even a Jedi Knight, and yet she was still alive when so many others had died. She asked the question so often because she knew the answer. She just hated facing it, as painful as it was. She’d survived because she had left. She had walked away. She’d walked away from the Jedi and she’d walked away from Thabeska, and because of that she was alive, whether she deserved to be or not.”
― E.K. Johnston, Ahsoka

“Alone and connected. Aloof and hopelessly entwined. Obi-Wan had only a moment before he was wrenched back into the physical world, but it was long enough to renew his hope.

― E.K. Johnston, Ahsoka

“How many of the younglings had been murdered by a man wearing a face they implicitly trusted? And how did the clones feel after it was done? She knew the Temple had burned; she had received the warning not to return. But she didn’t know where any of her friends had been during the disaster. She knew only that she couldn’t find them afterward, that her sense of them was gone, as if they had ceased to exist.”
― E.K. Johnston, Ahsoka

“Raada was a tedious little place, but it would serve its purpose. The Empire would get what it wanted and then be on its way. The farmers would have their freedom again, for all the good it would do them. They really should have thought of the risks before they became farmers. Jenneth turned a blind eye to his part in their incipient suffering, a privilege that came with never really having suffered.”
― E.K. Johnston, Ahsoka

“You're a good mechanic," Fardi said with a grin. "There aren't so many of those that I am willing to throw one away just because of a few Imperial entanglements."
"Thanks," Ahsoka said. She started to move toward the door and then stopped. It was a risk to say the words out loud, but she had to do all she could before she left. "Fardi, you need to be careful with Hedala."
The change in the older man was instant. His brow furrowed, and there was a determined gleam in his eyes.
"What about her?" he asked.
"She's..." Ahsoka trailed off. She wasn't sure how to say it without giving too much away. "She's special. It's important that no one realizes how special she is."
Fardi blinked, putting the pieces together. Ahsoka wondered what he'd seen the little girl do, if he'd ever found her behavior odd and then dismissed it because he was busy. If he had, he was remembering it now.
"Do you think she'll grow up to be a mechanic?" he said, and Ahsoka knew he'd understood everything she hadn't said.
"There isn't anyone to teach her," Ahsoka said, choosing her words carefully.”

“She learned that the main weapon of the Empire, after fear, was hunger. She had seen this strategy at work on Raada and also during the Clone Wars, but to see it applied on such a large scale made her very uncomfortable. The Empire was still new, still establishing itself in the outer reaches of the galaxy, and yet it was already incredibly powerful. And she realized that she had helped build it. The mechanisms put in place during the Clone Wars had been twisted for the Empire’s use, and every day the Emperor’s hold grew tighter. She almost admired Palpatine for his ability to pull off a long-term plan—except for his being evil and all.”
― E.K. Johnston, Ahsoka

“The Chancellor played his hand very well,” Bail said. He spoke the word chancellor with some venom, and Ahsoka knew it gave him great satisfaction not to say emperor when they were in private. “He kept us so busy jumping at shadows that we didn’t notice which of the shadows was real.”
― E.K. Johnston, Ahsoka

“What are you?” Kaeden asked, surprised she had any voice at all.

“They were all afraid of him, which he liked rather a lot. They didn’t know exactly what he was, only that he was implacable and cruel. His kind was new to the galaxy, a fresh weapon for the dark side to wield. His agents must follow his every order as though the Emperor himself had given it. That sort of power made him feel very strong.”
― E. K. Johnston, Star Wars: Ahsoka

“montrals”
― E.K. Johnston, Ahsoka

“Pilar huffed for a while longer but finally fled as the Inquisitor's expression got blacker and more threatening. That was the easiest way to deal with weak-minded bureaucrats. They didn't listen anyway, so it was best to intimidate them until they gave up.”
― E.K. Johnston, Ahsoka

“she had a bad feeling about this.”
― E.K. Johnston, Ahsoka
