Star Wars fans: Rey is such a boring Mary-Sue.

Tumblr: No she isn’t! There is a perfectly logical explanation as to why she mastered everything she touched perfectly on the first try.

Star Wars fans: ….how then?

Tumblr: She used the Force.

Star Wars fans:

that is literally how the force works if you can use it have you never seen a star wars movie before or

anakin never finished a race, then wins one first time out

anakin never flew a starship before and manages to do what the other pilots couldn’t: blow up a droid control ship

let’s not forget luke

luke never used a lightsaber or piloted an x-wing before, then the second he uses the force, bam, perfect first time out

lmao look at this person tryin’ to call rey a mary sue like it’s 2004

That and like. She has better reasons for knowing this stuff than the above dudes do.

Like, of COURSE she knows all about mechanics- she’s been scavenging starships for parts most of her life, so knowing what’s what and how it works is a crucial life skill.

When she handles a lightsaber, she’s very obviously using it like she would a staff (and spends most of the fight running away from Kylo anyway). You know, like the staff she carries with her all the time for self-defense in the desert hellhole she grew up in.

Everything we see her do with the Force is stuff Kylo did in front of her- he invades her mind, and she invades his and then mind-tricks a Stormtrooper (which still takes her three tries). He Force-holds her and later tries to Force-pull a lightsaber, and she Force-pulls it to her instead.

Practically everyone in the Star Wars universe is casually multilingual, and the only character in TFA who’s shown to be unable to understand at least one of Chewie or BB-8 is Finn, who was raised and brainwashed as a Stormtrooper (and neither the Empire nor the First Order seems to be much of an equal opportunity employer when it comes to species). Given her scavenger history, Rey having met astromech droids before isn’t just possible, but likely.

Her skills are better-established than either Luke’s or Anakin’s before they matter, but nope, she’s the Mary Sue, apparently.

For god’s sake, if you take Episode 1 at its word, Anakin was a goddamn virgin birth caused by the will of the force, and has an extensive prophecy about him being the Chosen One.

Like. Seriously.
