Twink Era ↠ Dilf Era

fantasy story: but we grew complacent, indulgent, arrogant, spoiled by this era of prosperity and splendour, and in our short-sighted greed and vanity, we ended it. me at 15: I hate this stupid trope. People aren't going to just turn stupid and ruin everything just because things have been "too good" for "too long". Why does this author think that people are inherently stupid and evil? people on social media in 2024: I'm not going to vaccinate my dogs or my children because polio, measels and rabies are so rare they're not a real threat anyway uwu me at 30: Ah. I see.

i still remember when that stupid glee kiss happened. it made the news. people freaked the fuck out. my dad yelled at me about it in the car after school one day—he knew that i’d seen the show before (on account of being 13 fucking years old) and demanded an explanation. my mom loved grey’s anatomy, a show that fired a gay actor so hard that his much-beloved character got killed by a bus. i remember the hushed whispers about oitnb. i remember when people got pissy about gay stuff happening in game of thrones, the nastiest most adult-oriented show ever

i get that we’re all trapped in a toilet circling around a never ending shitturd of queer infighting—no piece of media will ever satisfy everyone—but it’s so nice that gay people can kiss on tv now. it doesn’t make headlines, not like it used to. hell, they sell queer YA novels at fucking target. the fact that “this is just ‘gay’ to appease the masses” is even a fucking situation fills my heart with joy, lmao

“I just need a break.”

bly sweetly wooing aayla by showing he loves every bit of her messy self as a person and not the idea of a sexy twilek Jedi one piece of mortifying ordeal of being known at a time vs aayla aggressively wooing bly by leaving him little gifts like an eager cat and showing off in battles and hovering around him the way a middle schooler tries to sit next to her crush

Anyway one of the reasons I’m so mad about Order 66 is the fact that a happy ending would have meant that Clone Culture and Jedi Culture would mix because they basically adopted each other and it would have been beautiful

Jedi are peacekeepers and they are more than happy to return to their role but war still haunts them and leaves its marks. Many are happy to get rid of their armor, others not so much

Padawans who survived and grow into Knights who keep parts of their armor, painted in the color of their battalion

New Padawans who pick up an armor and paint it in colors meaningful to them after their first mission! Imagine excited kids coming back going “Look! My armor has its first scratch!!!” And a clone being so happy for this tiny Shinie

Which also: Language. Okay. So much slang becoming casual in the temple but also Mando’a. Shinie and Padawan becoming pretty synonymous after a few years.

And like, going on missions without clones just feels kinda weird at this point. And they just attach themselves to their Jedi for missions because sure, we’re not fighting A War™️ anymore but Skywalker and Kenobi are still Skywalker-and-Kenobi and We Know Better

Also Force-sensitive clones because canon robbed us of that. Which starts the whole age debate. And then somebody (Anakin who is busy being a Dad and also a Master bc he deserved it after defeating Sidious) goes “I mean. The oldest are actually only 15 and also we should listen to the Force”

And the Council is already so tired, Skywalker has been taking his adorable super strong kids to meetings basically everyday, Plo Koon legally adopted the Wolfpack as soon as Clones were recognized as citizens of the Republic (he had the adoption papers on his person so he could make use of them ASAP) might as well change the code

So Clone Padawans!!! And later Knights!!!! And they’re so proud of it.

On the other hand, a lot of clones adapt Jedi practices! Learn their code to make it through the memories of war because bred soldier or not - it leaves scars

They meditate! Some of them might even actually kinda know how to handle a lightsaber because their Jedi keep losing theirs

They first get Jedi tunics because that’s just what they have at the temple and when you need to supply a lot is people with casual clothes, that’s a good start. Some clones branch out, others don’t. They’re comfortable and the whole cape/robe drop is badass

Tattoos! Not really a thing for the Jedi as a culture before, but they become more and more popular so that Masters legit have to make sure their underaged Padawans won’t get any.

Sharing last names! Like, objectively, them optioning for going by “Fett” is funny for so many reasons, most of them related to Boba having to sit through various “No, not that Fett” talks but also! Jedi offering up their last names! Plo already adopted his batch but I bet Cody introduces himself as “Kenobi” and Obi-Wan doesn’t even blink like “It suits you, Commander”.

Also Ahsoka and Rex coming home because we deserve that and Ahsoka and Anakin nearly throwing hands about Who Gets To Give Rex Their Last Name. (RIP to them because Padmé was quicker and Rex Amidala sounds ten times as cool)

Tiny younglings!!! Being so honored when they can share a name with a Clone. Imagine a small little Twi’lek Initiate being HYPED when a Commander accepts her name. A hero! Thinking you’re very brave!

The Senate maybe goes “but the clones don’t belong to you-“ at the start but are shut up very quickly.

Just give me the Clones and Jedi in the aftermath of the war living together peacefully.

Episode 9 Joo Won really went to dinner with his dad, after not seeing him over a 3-month period, to tell him,

"Father, my upbringing was too sheltered. I have decided to evolve to a bitchier version of myself. I try things now: I eat different foods, my fashion sense is more experimental, my hair is better, I fuck, I drive a new car..."

to which, Hyuk and HKH ask: "women, right?"

Joo Won: "What?"

Hyuk + HKH: "You're going to pursue women...right?"

Joo Won: "Sure."

Joo Won later on:
