Only a dad, but he gives his all
To smooth the way for his children small,
Doing, with courage stern and grim,
The deeds that his father did for him.
This is the line that for him I pen… — Edgar Albert Guest
Some of the good fathers/father figures in the galaxy far far away.
Truly loves Leia and raised a Skywalker right under Old Zappy Hand’s nose. Need I say more?
I know he’s called Uncle Owen but he raised Luke like a father should *looking at you poor choices Vaderkin*
Lesser known dad but still seems good.
Best smuggler dad in the galaxy. Loved his son until the very end. I will not be taking comments from Disney at this time.
He raised Anakin and look at that smile for his son.
He’s a good guy, Depa’s dad and Ezra’s Great-Grandpa
Frog grandpa for so many and you wouldn’t even question this if you’ve read about him playing with baby Dooku in the creche. Precious.
Mando dad and son.
Clone dad.
Space dad with space mom.
Good man who gave a good foundation for his son.
Some Honorable Mentions
Cal did him proud
Dad saving his sons.
And finally, only honorable in a universe where he takes a nap or does NOT MOVE until Obi-Wan gets back
Though I will agree he was a pretty decent dad for C-3PO until THAT happened.
It’s a new year folks and we’ve a new addition to our list of dads in a far away galaxy. They be out here trying there very best and we love them for it.
I commissioned this gorgeous piece from the amazing @orientalld because I wanted QuiObi bridal carry, and it then inspired me to include a similar scene in my fic deluge. Not a big surprise, since her work always inspires me!
New post and me not
feeling as, well, close to panic attack center as I was at the time.
And therefore I
want to apologize properly with a fresh head.
I realize that
there are problematic things I’ve written and I didn’t realize
it due to privilege, ignorance and ingrained systematic racism.
A lot of people
reached out to teach me better, show me where I was wrong and I am
going to do my best to do better now that I know and can be nothing
but grateful to the people who sought to make me see what I did
wrong.
I will do my
research, think harder about what I’m writing and how it impacts
people for the future.
I don’t expect
people to accept an apology for the hurt I’ve caused and the anger
people rightfully felt, that’s not up for me to control anyone
accepting an apology, nor would I want to control such a thing.
But I am fully
apologizing and I hope that I can make up for the hurt I’ve caused.
The apology I made
yesterday likely came of as lacking, so I felt the need to repeat it,
worded properly.
Fandom should be a
safe space for all, and I haven’t contributed to that, I have made
it less welcoming for people and I know the security fandom can
bring, so I can only apologize for contributing to making it feel
less safe.
