Star Wars fans: I know it’s been a while since the new trilogy dropped.
I personally really really liked them. And I really like Rey as a character.
I know lots of people think she is a Mary Sue— I have gone through their points time and time again and compared her to Luke, and to other characters in other movies.
I don’t personally think she is a Mary Sue because I think all of her strengths are plot justified, as are the ways that Luke behaves on Ach To training her (but this is just my opinion, I know many people hated Luke’s arc too).
Am I wrong ? I don’t think I am. But so many people (particularly men) LOVE to shit on Rey as a character when to me, she is just a really cool hero with cool powers, who does go through an emotional struggle/hero’s journey. I know the new trilogy’s writing has a ton of flaws, but it really sucks having something you love be considered so un-cool— it makes me feel like I’m delusional or doing something wrong by liking “bad writing”.
What are people’s honest opinions? I’m willing to hear both sides, it’s just been on my mind a lot lately because it almost feels like depicting powerful women is this horrible thing to so many people… or to enjoy something everyone else has unanimously agreed is “bad” is a crime. I think of myself as an objective person but I just can’t get behind their arguments.
I want to hear other people’s takes (specifically from women and nb people, as I hear a lot of takes from men. Even if you disagree I want to know!!)

in fics where luke gets plopped into the prequels i want every jedi within ten metres of him to think hes the weirdest jedi theyve ever seen. he has negative lightsaber form. he doesnt know what a kata is. he handstands when he meditates. his solution to sith is to try and have a chat. hes a political radical who keeps suggesting revolution. you ask him what the jedi code is and he says "kindness and compassion and helping those in need :) ". you ask how he used the force like that and he says some shit about how you are a luminous being limited only by your mind. the councils authority is just a suggestion. he is somehow the new favourite of both qui gon and yoda

"Luke Skywalker isn’t like the old Jedi. He saves Vader with his attachments!”
Wrong!
Luke Skywalker, at the end of Return of the Jedi, after his confrontation with the Emperor drags Darth Vader through the destructing Death Star. He’s desperate, knuckles white under the heavy weight of his father’s body, a little boy dragging his dad to safety. He sets Vader down for a moment, to catch his breath or maybe to get a better grip. He goes to grab Vader again, but Vader, uncomfortable and in pain, asks Luke to take off the mask. He wants to see Luke through his eyes instead of the eyes Palpatine built for him. Luke refuses, says that removing the mask is a sure way for Vader to die. Luke doesn’t want Vader dead, he wants Vader alive. Not to hold him accountable for his many evil acts, but for the same reason why Luke Skywalker can’t kill Darth Vader; Vader is his father and Luke loves him.
And yet, after a moment, Luke removes Vader’s mask. He doesn’t want to, he hesitates, but he removes the mask with enough slowness to allow Vader to take it back. In that moment, Luke sets aside his desire for Vader in his life, sets aside his desire to see him live, and sets aside his entire mission, the reason he was even on the Death Star in the place. In his compassion for his father, Luke stays with Vader until he dies. It is this moment where we see him be the best damn Jedi he can be. I’d even argue that this moment is the greatest example of non-attached love we see. Because Luke lets Vader go! He lets his father die, and in some ways, by removing the mask, he too kills Vader, he stays with him until his last moment, gives him the kindness of granting his last wish and finally chooses Vader.
And Luke doesn’t have to do this. If Luke Skywalker’s love for his father was an attachment, he would ignore Vader and continue dragging him to the escape pod, put his desire for a father as his central focus and ignore Vader’s wants and discomfort. Maybe he would even save him. But he doesn’t. Instead, he watches as Vader dies.
He builds a Jedi burial for his father and watches it burn the remnants of Vader and Anakin Skywalker away. He mourns Vader, he mourns what they could’ve had as father and son, considers what ifs and maybe-if-I-did-this. Vader/ Anakin is released from his mortal body, from his ‘crude matter’ and Luke lets him go. He says one final goodbye to Anakin. Then, he joins Leia, Han, Chewie, Lando, and the rest of the Rebels and celebrates their victory. He lives in the present and celebrates what he has instead of what he lost.
Luke Skywalker is THE Jedi. Everything about Luke Skywalker serves as the foundational cornerstone of the Jedi, everything about the Jedi as a culture and philosophy is reflected in his character. Luke’s desire for the New Jedi Order isn’t to throw away the values of the old Order, but to vitalise them, breathe life back into dying lungs, and rebuild a path that people set out on their way to destroy. (Yes, his Order is different from the Old, but that’s because it has to be. He doesn’t have the resources or the safety of the Old Order.) The philosophies of the Jedi are difficult and they aren’t for everyone, and like the perfect Jedi that Luke is, he struggles and stumbles and sometimes he even rejects it. But, no matter how far he falls, it is a way of life he chooses again and again and again. It is a way of life that welcomes him back each time

In Saint Gabriel City, there’s a war brewing.
The Four Families have ruled the City for generations, but they made a huge fucking mistake when they murdered my parents and didn’t manage to kill me too.
I’ve revealed my true identity, taking the City and Holywell Academy by storm, but the heads of Spencer, Hargraves, and Ferrero continue to underestimate me. They think I’m an annoying little gnat trying to play at being an Heir, and that will make it all the sweeter when I take everything from them.
But their sons—the boys who were my best friends for eleven years—they have different ideas about me than their parents do.
Zach wants me back—and maybe just plain wants me.
Noah longs for our friendship but feels hurt by my lies.
And Bennett—he’ll resist my attack on his legacy until the bitter end, but he’d still rather die than lose me again.
And me? I’m starting to think I need my boys back with me after all.
But they’ll have to choose—it’s me or the Families.
Because I came to burn it all down, and nothing is going to stand in my way.
