    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.

        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.

          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…
