I Can't Follow

Women of Star Wars Appreciation Week, Day Five: "You’re going down a path I can’t follow." nmallenart.tumblr.com/post/126…

The quote came from Padmé as she pleaded with Anakin in Revenge of the Sith but it works on many levels for many different characters. I wanted to feature Katooni, the Jedi Youngling who bonded with former enemy, Pirate Captain Hondo Ohnaka, when his Florrum base was taken by General Grievous. Hondo, some of his men and Katooni were separated from Ahsoka and the other Younglings and Hondo, having no intentions of going back for them, half-heartedly invited Katooni to join his crew. Luckliy it didn't take much for Katooni to convince him to go back for the others and prove he's not heartless.

The smile they shared when he left her back at the temple makes us all want to believe that she had a place to escape to when order 66 rolled around and I think we're all hoping to hear Hondo mention her when he returns in Rebels. 

"You are welcome to come small one, you may join our merry band of pirates."
