Din And Luke Told Me To Paint So I Painted A Tatooine Sunset. Not Sure If I’m Done With It Yet, But

Snippet from chapter 2 of Of Bolts and Bucket Hearts

“Mom, this is Din, my sahe’as, my boyfriend.” Luke said.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you.” Padmé said. “Please take good care of my son. He means everything to me.”

“I noticed you speaking huesmic, were you a slave?” Din asked as they walked.

Padmé laughed. “No I was a queen and senator, but I married his father. He, Nia, and Beru taught me.” She said.

Din nearly tripped. Luke, actually tripped, luckily Din managed to grab him just in time to stop him from face planting into the ground. Luke flashed a grateful smile as he steadied himself against Din.

“You were a queen?” Luke asked. “Aunt Ru only mentioned you being a senator.”

“I was elected queen of Naboo when I was four teen. I ran for two terms. The people wanted to vote for me to stay in power for longer, but I refused. It wasn’t how things were done. After that I became a senator.” Padmé explained. “They insisted I keep the name Amidala instead of going back to Naberrie though. If things had been different I would have taken your father’s last name when we married. But, he was a Jedi and forbidden from marrying, so we had to do it in secret.”

She shook her head. “I haven’t been a Naberrie, Amidala, or Skywalker in a very long time though. All of them were too risky to use. When this war is over I’ll go back to my name, but for now call me Veré.” She said.

“Of course mam.” Din said.

“What name will you use?” Luke asked. “Naberrie or Skywalker?”

“I was thinking Naberrie-Skywalker.” Padmé said.

“Padmé Naberrie-Skywalker. I like it.” Luke said.

Din smiled as Luke and Padmé talked. It was good to see the mother and son catching up. It was like they’d only been separated a few months and not eighteen years. Like Luke had simply moved out and come to visit instead of a first meeting.

Pixars 22 Rules of Story Telling

One of my favourite parts about autistic people is how you can use other peoples' reflections of them like an echolocation bullshit detector. Like they personally do not need to do shit for this to work, they just passively emit their own autistic vibe that bounces off every surface around them, and you can assess another person's level of self-awareness by how they reflect it back.

"Autistic people do not understand social hierarchy" nope, they understand you're supposed to be an authority here, but they won't politely pretend to respect you if they think you're incompetent.

"Autistic people do not understand humour" nope, they just don't politely pretend to laugh to humour you, and you are simply not funny.

"Autistic people are rude" nope, they just don't think it's polite to lie to you, and don't care about trying to tell you what they think you want to hear instead of telling you what they think.

"Autistic people sometimes have emotional meltdowns for absolutely no reason" nope, you're just insufferable to be around and the person with the lowest tolerance of your shit is simply the canary in the coal mine who breaks first.

Ah darn, I just singed on and saw this. Good night Padmé, I’d have happily talked to you if you were still awake.

ani’s on a mission… somebody talk to me.

Stardew Valley that’s so easy and honestly not very different than my life already I just get to make money off farming instead of living on my mom’s farm where she just owns animals.

You've been isekai'd into a fictional setting. Spin this wheel to find out which one.

Mine is literally a pic of me so yes.

Does the gender of your Tumblr profile pic/pvp/avatar match your irl gender? Yes, No, Nuance.

Thanks for giving me a chance ❤

Absolutely dogshit article on the fucking awful new york times today, just disgusting tone throughout basically implying no contact with your abusive family is a social media trend, and often done by frivolous reasons

Instead of the horrible but LIFE SAVING choice a lot of us are basically forced into

It makes me fucking sick that they thought it was okay to speak to "estranged parent's organisations" - would you seek out the POV of other types of abusers too? Think they're gonna do anything but justify their abuse and lie?
