And May The Force

They play musical chairs so that they can sit where the sun doesn’t shine in their eyes. Whenever Anakin does something stupid, Obi-Wan wants to be able to give him the Look without having to squint his eyes.

I am absolutely fascinated by this Jedi High Council Seating Chart (from Star Wars Super Graphic) because I’d never really stopped to think about who was sitting in what chair. Some of them stay in their same seats!  Like Mace, Yoda, Plo, and Ki-Adi are all in the same seats from beginning to end.  Some of them leave the Council for whatever reason, we know Even and Adi died, we don’t know what happened to Yaddle or Yarael. But then there’s like. KIT.  WHY ARE YOU IN ONE SEAT IN SEASON 4, THEN TAKE OPPO’S CHAIR IN SEASON 5, AND THEN BACK TO YOUR REGULAR ONE IN SEASON 6 THROUGH REVENGE OF THE SITH? SHAAK.  WHY ARE YOU BOUNCING ALL OVER THE PLACE?  YOU CAN BARELY KEEP TO ONE? And I am desperate to know if this is a musical chairs situation where whoever gets there earliest gets to choose their seat and do they sometimes deliberately pick another Councilor’s seat when they want to be annoying?  Is Shaak picking her seat based on who she wants to nettle today? Are there ALL OUT JEDI MASTER BRAWLS OVER WHO GETS DIBS ON WHICH SEAT OR A FIGHT TO THE DEATH FOR THE COMFY CHAIR WITH THE BEST VIEW? Or is there some meaning, like “you sit in chair #6, you’re head of the senate ambassadorial committee” or “you sit in chair #3 and you’re head of the younglings’ daycare” and Yoda parked his ass there in chair #3 and refused to move for decades??? I AM DESPERATE TO KNOW.

See sometimes I cry about the fall of the Jedi order. and sometimes I wonder how the hell they even lasted that long.

Example one: the Zillo beast

Because this is the logical train of thought: there’s a giant monster who wants to kill everyone, let’s kill him or put him back in the hole.

But noooo. The Jedi council was smoking something good that day and thought: There’s a giant monster that wants to kill everyone. Maybe we should kill it… nahhhh let’s bring it back to the capital so we can maximize damages. Hopefully it eats the chancellor.

Star Wars Incorrect Qoutes

At a council meeting

Obi-wan: I think I had a bad childhood.

Depa: yeah, I know

Obi-wan: what do you mean, you know?

Depa: look at you

Obi-wan: what do you mean, look at me?

Depa: Look at how you stand. People who had good childhood don't stand like that.

Knowing how mischievous Yoda can get, I'm willing to bet he gave Obi-Wan the idea, or at least hinted at it, knowing full well he'd follow through, and is now enjoying the results along with Mace.🤣

after the war ends, Obi-Wan desperately wants to quit the Council, but Mace keeps rejecting his resignations

so Obi-Wan decides to take matters into his own hands: if he can’t resign formally, he’s going to get himself kicked off

he starts by showing up to Council meetings intoxicated, and wearing increasingly outrageous (and frequently revealing) clothing

when his own efforts fail to get any reaction out of Mace, he recruits outside assistance

he sends Anakin wearing a fake beard and mustache to attend as him (which has the side benefit of convincing Anakin that he never, ever, wants anything to do with the Council)

Cody attends wearing Obi-Wan’s clothes and lightsaber, but making no other attempt to disguise himself

Quinlan breaks in during a meeting, makes out with Obi-Wan for two minutes straight, then smashes through a window to make his daring escape

Ahsoka does her best Hondo impression and shows up to kidnap Obi-Wan in the middle of a session, with Rex and the Bad Batch (in their normal, full armor) as her dastardly pirate crew

and while certain members of the Council are outraged, Obi-Wan still can’t even get Mace to consider his resignation

of course, Mace isn’t going to tell Obi-Wan that his efforts have backfired: this is the most entertainment Mace has had in YEARS, he’s wasn’t letting Obi-Wan quit before he started this, and now at least half the reason is that he wants to see what Obi-Wan’ll try next

Kinda niche but I hope that we get a cool moment for master Xo Lahru by the end of phase 3. He’s 1 of only 4 cannon grandmasters we have so far and I would love to know more about him.

Pra-Tre veter got such a badass end to his character fitting of a grandmaster, having an incredible show of strength in the shadows of starlight comic. We’ve also gotten to know him and his personally quite well in the Yoda comics and shadows of starlight, while also having a historic death that really impacted me while reading it.

That Fight scene in Shadows of starlight will forever live rent free in my head tbh. And the armor he wears is top notch, and I’ll always be a Master Veter defender

I think Pra-Tre really had the “grandmaster aura” and I hope we get the some love for Lahru and Ry Ki-Sakka because they have such cool designs and I don’t want that potential to be wasted

Friend and I got on the topic of if Fox got a flamethrower.
