I was looking for a picture of a young Ian McDiarmid because I wanted to know if it was theoretically possible for there to be Young Hot Palpatine (purely an intellectual enterprise, mind) but the poor man apparently always looked like a beset upon civil servant. 

That’s the face of your high school history teacher who tries to be fun but doesn’t have the energy for it. No wonder nobody suspected Palpatine, he has the face of a bumbling family doctor and the eyes of a sad puppy.

Cham Syndulla, with not a trace of irony whatsoever: Hera is so stubborn and impulsive and dedicated to making big symbolic gestures without any thought given to real strategy. I love her, but it’s exhausting.
Hera Syndulla, twenty miles away, staring straight at the camera: I just don’t know they can’t be my kids AND my loyal subordinates. No one understands how hard it is to balance work and family, especially when everyone insists on following you into danger all the time, putting their lives on the line for the sake of sentiment.
