At no point in his life did Luke get any. Ever. Hell, Yoda probably slung his leg over more often. But permavirgin Luke? Nope.
BLOCKS YOUR PATH.
I don’t know who that is.
Mara Jade, from the non-Disney Star Wars universe.
She’s Luke’s wife.
Huh. TIL.
Thank you.
A TCOAL reference on Lemmy?
the internet is healing
…or like getting worse in a good way
Turns out being exiled to suck grains of sand for individual molecules of moisture up through your early 20s isn’t as good for the resume as being inducted as a child into the fasttrack program for magic West Point.
Luke was a Commander in the Rebel Alliance by then so not all that terrible. He definitely had more war crimes than Anakin.
Luke was a late bloomer whilst Anakin was a child genious.
By the destruction of the Death Star alone, Luke has a higher kill count than Anakin did at 22, saved the Rebellion, and became a decorated war hero. And Luke did all that in less than a week of getting caught up in events.
Meanwhile Anakin had been building up to that point for years, and was only a General because all Jedi were Generals. Other than becoming a Jedi, it’s not like he did anything specifically to earn that position.
Anakin was also playing the game with cheats on. Palp was arranging a lot of softball missions for him. Can’t have the chosen one get randomly killed by a droid.
Did we watch the same TV show as kids?? I wouldn’t call the invasion of Geonosis a ‘softball mission’.
Geonosis was arranged as a bit of a humbling strike. Anakin was supposed to meet and be defeated by his rival for apprentice … which is what happened.
Again, another softball as Dooku was likely instructed not to kill or harm Anakin … which explained why he looked disappointed with the arm having been lost.
Yeah it turns out cozying up to evil powerful people can advance your personal position more than fighting against them, who knew?
Say what you will about Luke and accidental incest, but he’s not in the files, I’ll tell you that.
Also sibling incest is a lot less often end up in abuse than parent-child incest. Every other argument against incest could be applied to a lot of other kinds of relationships, including the birth defects one.
you’re ziltoid the omniscient and you can’t see that your statement might be a bit problematic… as in it might cause you problems?
maybe you need coffee that isn’t fetid.
“Future father” at age 22 is a strange achievement.
Wasn’t a jedi knight on the council either.
What a failure.
Thought it would be funnier if we added Leia
…
why did they fuck luke over? They put Leia in a hereditary monarch position, and him in some desert in the middle of fucking nowhere to farm moisture?
/uj Wasn’t it implied (also in the obi wan series) that they needed to separate them literally as much as possible? So not just planetary, but also by the very walk of life, and by all reason, they shouldn’t have ever crossed paths, even accidentally. If they were both paupers on different planets and physically passed by each other, they might talk, but by separating them by class, even if they walked by each other, one is literal royalty and the boundary would be immense.
So that they eventually crossed paths by fate, shows the power and will of the force to bring good people together or some bullshit.
This is the version I want :( Having Luke and Nellith working as a Jedi duo would have been so cool.
makes sense. that’s great on the part of the fans to come up with decent explanations to plot holes that gape open more than anal acrobats’ prolapsed assholes.
… or some bullshit.
Yep, that sounds about right when “somehow Palpatine returned” exists.
In my headcannon this explains solitary senile old Luke.
… because he was neglected? Because of the moisture farm chemicals?
It’s the blue milk. That stuff rots your brain.
Hmm. Well, most chemical desiccants would probably cause moderate to severe damage when breathed in, and with a bit of suspense of disbelief could explain developmental issues…
That’s a helpful and necessary addition. The mythology does not serve itself.
But who can name themselves jedi master though?
My canon belief is that Leia had a sense there was a connection to Luke (that she references to “always knowing”, which can mean a lot more than just about Luke) after she heard his calling out to her from Cloud CIty. This would be long after both kisses, and both of them were pretty innocent within context anyway.
As for Anakin, he was the most powerful at that point. We see this by the measurements (yeah, I hate that Lucas defined what was meant to be mystical), we see this by the later results in him matching up with other more experienced Jedi, and we see him as a severely crippled Vader who is still devastating to anyone. Anakin weakness wasn’t his abilities, but his lack of patience and control, thanks to maybe his age if Yoda was right, but the lack of the Council aiding what training could be done, and also fueling his fears and anger later.
Luke could be more powerful. We never see his peak level except in cases like in The Mandalorian. That Luke is Anakin-level but with control of his actions.
I’m of the belief that Anakin would wipe the floor and scrub the toilet with Luke.

Luke’s 23 in Return of the Jedi when he defeats the combined power of Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine to not only resist turning to the dark side himself but also redeem Anakin turning him back to the light side of the force. Luke’s the real strongest Jedi even with his truncated training.
Honestly, at the rate each new Jedi is getting trained per franchise, the next Jedi Padawan will introduce their name to their master before becoming deemed a Master.
They didn’t exactly start thier training at the same age…
I don’t love that I recognize the art style / pose.
There is something to be said about how recognizable it is, that is commendable in itself. Too bad about the reason why 😬.
Please elaborate further.
The coffin of Andy and Leyley, a game that I haven’t played but people say it’s about incest or something. The meme uses the same poses and art style for Luke and Leia
The opening scene involves the two of them locked in an apartment slowly starving to death while their neighbor attempts to summon a demon and dies leaving behind piles of edible meat.
Tap for spoiler
The incest doesn’t happen until like act 3 and even then it’s only as a possible outcome foreshadowed in a flash forward.
Hot.
