More likely to respond emotionally instead of rationally. "We're not supposed to love, right? Because it makes us less objective. Nobody but Rael could understand the line their Master walked, or the dangerous allure of the prophecies.īut instead of taking this seriously, Rael was joking around and sucking a death stick in a lively cantina on some out-of-the-way planet called Takodana. He'd strongly hoped the meditation room would remain empty at this hour so he could speak with Rael in private without being overheard by other Padawans, Dooku, or anyone else. "Rael!" Qui-Gon felt as if somebody might walk in any second. They keep sayin', Oh, the Jedi aren't allowed to love, and that's why we're never supposed to get laid-" "That's another thing the Council's dead wrong about.
"He was scared because he was worried about you." Rael shrugged. All lives were precious, and when so many were lost in such a way, the Jedi felt the pain of it in the Force as well as in their own hearts. Few understood, though, that while specific, individual bonds such as romantic love or family were forbidden, the Jedi were not ashamed of compassion. The Jedi cultivated a practice of nonattachment, which had always served them well. So instead of bringing up old stories, or naming long-unspoken names, Averross moved on. He wasn't sorry he'd pushed back against Qui-Gon's empty moralizing, but it wasn't like he'd wanted to cause his friend pain. These words cut deep-or the memories did. On Felucia, you broke the spirit of that law into a dozen pieces." I might've broken the letter of the law, but not the spirit. That doesn't compromise my emotions, doesn't divide my loyalties, anything like that. Getting laid? Not so much, not if it's casual, like me and Selbie.

"Falling in love-that's what the Jedi Code forbids. "Yeah, there is." Damn, but Averross wished he had that ale around now.

"There is a difference," Qui-Gon insisted, righteous as ever, "between falling in love and simply giving oneself license to do as one pleases." "Oh, no? Guess it's about hypocrisy, then." "This isn't about what happened in my past," Qui-Gon said. The man's face was as inscrutable as ever, but the moment the door swung shut behind Selbie, Qui-Gon said, "Have you forgotten yourself entirely?"Īverross laughed. Once Selbie had stalked out with her head held high, Averross had no further excuse to avoid eye contact with Qui-Gon. So, I've taken the time to put together those ideas. Many have shared George Lucas’ view of attachment, but haven't discussed how the Jedi themselves viewed attachment in-universe. And like the Jedi, there has been a great deal of discussion about what “attachment” really is. *(/spoiler)Īttachment has been a hot topic over the past few weeks following the events of The Book of Boba Fett.
