Right now the vast majority of my fannish output is not on DW, and I keep forgetting to link it, which is kind of sad, because I have produced so much Star Wars meta recently. So my meta tag on Tumblr is here -- Cofax, this is what I mentioned the other day.

Also, I apparently liveblog Star Wars Rebels (tag) and Star Wars: The Clone Wars on rewatch (tag) now -- it's too much of a hassle to link individual posts because there are too many (it literally took me five hours to work through a 22-minute ep of Rebels; I had ALL THE THOUGHTS).

There's also a fair amount of fic that didn't get linked on DW, either; I've been good about putting chapters of Gambit up, but there's also Sound the Bells and Tales from the Eye of the Storm, which are both Ouroboros stories set in the TCW timeline during the missing two months of Wake the Storm.

In other words, basically I talk about Star Wars ALL THE TIME on Tumblr, but it doesn't really translate to doing so on DW or Twitter, since the people are...well, on Tumblr. *waves hands* Fandom, man. (Also, I make graphics now? That's a thing I do.)

Cool! I have been watching Rebels, which is mostly lighthearted fun, but your post about Kanan being the only survivor of a genocide really gave the situation a lot more weight. (Reminds me a bit of the backstory of ATLA, actually...)

I am very hopeful that Rebels will pick up once it's had time to get its groove, because the people working on it are some of the only people I trust in Lucasfilm right now, since they did Clone Wars so excellently. (Honestly, Dave Filoni speaks and I just kind of want to claw my own face off, because I've never seen a showrunner who's so much of a genuine, thoughtful fan of the source material and it's pretty clear he's thought about a lot of the same things that fandom has; the only difference is that he's actually been able to ask George Lucas the questions.)

I think about sad Jedi probably a little too much, but...yeah, thinking about Kanan in context of a guy who was a fourteen-year-old kid when his entire culture was destroyed and his people were murdered makes a lot of his behavior more understandable. (I mean, the same is true for Obi-Wan or Yoda, but to a different extent because their situations were very different from Kanan's.)
