Star Wars Padme - Tumblr Posts
I keep seeing this show up on my feed and rightfully so?? it's so good??
I don't think the movies (and tcw to unfortunately) did her character justice. Ik that she wasn't the main character strictly speaking but there was so much potential there that was just never developed.
(also I love the callback to one of Anakin's first lines in tpm)
I know Anakin's desilusions of grandiosity are the talk of the town, but something something Padmé dehumanization of herself as a result of so much survivor trauma and so many close death calls. She's the senator with the highest murder attempts on her, she gets assesination attempts weekly and brushes them off, and she keeps chasing for justice to the point of collition, she sees people dying around her all the time but she keeps on living and living, at some point she's flirting with death as much as Anakin does in the battlefield. And something something, Anakin, ironically, in his extreme trauma and fear of death taking the people he loves, being the only one to say "You're a person, and your name is Padmé, not queen nor senator, and you're as fragile as any other live being" Something something the irony that person that most adored her being also the one who saw her as a person Something something Anakin commiting atrocities not for a goddess, no for a politician no for royalty, for a person. Something something how contrarian it is, that Anakin sees himself as a weapon, and Padmé's extreme guilt becoming what seems like superiority.
And particularly here in this comic something something how easily Anakin can walk through that storm Padme has created, how easily he can enter into her headspace and she doesn't flinch, doesn't blink, she isn't even surprised because she expects him and he's the only one that knows and can reach her like this, they're just having a conversation, something something.
Something.
I swear this was the end of me, so idc if i'm rambling, this comic kept me up awake for more than one day, because the power would go out every single time i sat to work on it, damnit
i need to sleep asap, and eat, eating first probably
Paper doll for zine 💖✨💘
I like her 🌷🌷🌷
OH MY GOODNESS!! I was at a bookstore earlier & I can’t believe what I found!! I didn’t even know Padme had books… 🤯
AND THIS IS EVEN CRAZIER!!
I kinda want to draw it as a mem <3
If Anakin & Revan, with full potential unlocked, ever met in battle during a crossover.
Anakin who's never paid attention in history class: I'm the Chosen One! The most powerful Jedi ever! Who or what the hell are you?
Revan: Saviour, conqueror, hero, villain, I am all these things. But in the end, as the darkness takes me... I am Revan Reborn! And before me you are nothing!
Anakin: You underestimate my power!
Meetra & Obi-Wan: standing next to each other, arms folded, rolling their eyes, having heard it all before.
Carth, Canderous, Rex & Cody: placing bets.
Ahsoka & Mission: watching with popcorn.
Bastila & Padme: arguing about who'll win.
Palpatine: does sith magic
Fifteen different universes worth of anakin, obi wan, Luke,Leia, padme, shmi, ahsoka, rex, din, grogu, cody, fives, echo, chewie, and han pop into the same coruscant at the same time
Coruscant: is destroyed in the best and most chaotic ways possible

Crack AU where Anakin can all of a sudden hear the background music that we all hear. Those pleasant chats with Palpy become a lot more ominous. Though Anakin admits that the fights have become a lot more epic. Thoughts?
Hahahahaha. Love it!
And okay, my first though was “and the galaxy was saved because even Anakin Skywalker would struggle to keep trusting Palpatine with that music playing in the background”
Anakin think he’s gone COMPLETELY insane (maybe he’s finally been electrocuted too many times and its fried his brain). He doesn’t tell anyone though because he can still fight just fine just… everything is a lot more musical. He doesn’t want to be thought crazy and taken off the front lines.
Once he figures out what the various musical cues mean he actually finds them useful in figuring out how dangerous a situation is. Also battles are so much cooler now and boring landscapes are slightly less boring because at least now they have mood music. Yep, he can live with this.
(Although he is always confused why the ominousness that is The Imperial March starts playing at some of his decisions)
The King and Queen of Spades
we justifiably give anakin a lot of shit for putting his foot in his mouth and telling padme all about sand when he tried to flirt with her but at least he never said 'నీ స్నేహితురాళ్ళు ఓ మోస్తరుగుంటారు అందుకనే ఏమో నువ్వందంగుంటావు' to her.
for reference, this actually translates to 'your friends look extremely average, maybe that's why you look so beautiful'
