But what if Anakin isn’t ignoring Kylo Ren? What if that great pull Kylo feels towards the Light is Anakin Skywalker desperately trying to save his grandson from his own fate, the way his wife and son tried to save him?
what if Anakin is literally constantly standing behind Kylo Ren, sputtering with ghostly frustration, going, “No! No! No! Do not do that! Do NOT do that! oh for fuck’s sake.”
This is almost certainly what is actually happening.
“Ben if you skewer my son-in-law with that lightsaber then SO HELP ME”
“Ben Solo your mother is blaming me for this, get your ass home and apologize now or I swear-”
And Yoda and Obi-wan are watching, shaking their heads. “Now you know how we felt,” Obi-wan says.
Yoda agrees: “A bitch, karma is.”
I love this. So many people can just totally see Anakin trying to strangle Ben from the afterlife.
Vader’s vocabulary is so much more extensive and haughty than Anakin’s ever was and I just like to think about this huge Dark Lord of the Sith sitting around reading the dictionary out of sheer boredom
Well to be fair it’s not like he had any friends left to chill with
Everyone is Dead, I Can’t Breathe, and I’m So Goddamn Bored by Darth Vader
I was very inspired by Kirk Reinert’s gorgeous piece. Ever since I started shipping this couple I couldn’t help but wonder if Anakin/Vader would be seeing her in his dreams, hunting him, perhaps trying to pull him out of the darkness that’s engulfed his very core and soul.
Sure, their relationship was complicated and dysfunctional as hell, but definitely one I could label as Star Crossed, and boy – the pain is too strong for my shipper heart ;-;
And yes, don’t laugh at me, I’ve been listening to Muse’s Neutron Star Collision (aka the ultimate cheesy song but very powerful IMO that was originally composed for *coughtwilightcough*). It makes sense to me because Ani’s love for Padme was very naïve in a way, and he would always keep on saying they’d be together forever no matter what yadda yadda :P and my hand slipped pretty bad, I couldn’t help it also can’t draw vader’s helmet and what is anatomy even FML
