sorry. can't stop labeling obi-wan kenobi's relationship with anakin skywalker as before anakin and after anakin and how this distinction is much more obvious and poignant through The pathetic old man's perspective than either anakin skywalker or darth vader's interpretation of their dynamic. while vader's resentment toward obi-wan and his obsession with finding him fueled him for decades, he still pursued other objectives separate from obi-wan and his relationship with him (The fascism and being palpatine’s guard dog etc. etc.) and a lot of his mourning was due to his own actions. not obi-wan’s. with obi-wan, every facet of his grief and every action he undertook after anakin was always linked back to his former apprentice. a lot of it was...(all of it was.) one could argue that anakin held a similar attachment to obi-wan, and i acknowledge that he had profound feelings for his former master. however, these feelings extended beyond obi-wan and encompass multiple individuals. obi-wan though? his devotion remained single-mindedly fixed on anakin from the moment they met, as well as on anyone and anything connected to him which we see by his unwavering commitment to luke and leia, who were extensions of anakin himself.

“I think that Obi-Wan feels– and this is the way I play it- that the attraction to the dark side is always going to be a part of Anakin and any other Jedi. But Obi-Wan knows the strength of Anakin and thinks he’ll overcome it.
I don’t think Obi-Wan expected anything that happened in Episodes III to V. I think he was so trusting in Anakin and the Force; he had hope and faith. I really don’t think he expected the dark side to be so heavy and actually take Anakin away from him.” ~ James Arnold Taylor

It’s so crazy that Luke Skywalker thought his dad was just some freighter pilot and yet also claimed to be a podracing fan how did he not think to look at the records and see his dad was the only human to ever win the Boonta Eve Classic the legend who defeated the great Sebulba #FakeFan

sorry I just think it’s hilarious that even after Anakin turns to the darkside every single person alive who knows that Anakin is Vader is still running to Obi-Wan, “The fuck, Kenobi??? That’s a YOU problem. Please control your man.”

Just finished reading this fic (it's good, post Hardeen angst, defintely check it out) and Anakin metions the only reason he hasn't left the Order is because of Obi-Wan. And now I'm thinking of a post Hardeen Au inspired by that.
Anakin walks in and sees Obi-Wan, alive, and has a series of realizations that the Hardeen Incident was a lie, that he never died, that he faked his death and that he and the council used Anakin's emotions to sell it.
Anakin socks Obi-Wan in the face, sending him crashing on the ground. Obi-Wan stares at him in shock, blood dripping down his face, because he's never seen Anakin this angry. He never expected him to Hit him. Anakin rips his belt/light saber off and throws it at Obi-Wan's feet, where it clatters and rolls into his legs.
"Anakin-"
"I mourned you. I won't make that mistake again. You're dead to me, Obi-Wan."
Anakin leaves the Temple without another word, not even bothering to grab his things. He's done and he has no intention of sticking around. The only person he will talk to is Ashoka and that's to apologize that he can no longer be her master. (Ashoka might leave with him.)
Anakin goes to Padmé (with Ashoka?) and they leave for Naboo. This should feel like a good thing for Padmè- her husband is no longer on the front lines, he's left the Order, they can be together publically now- except Anakin is spinning out of control and nothing she does can reach him. Anakin can no longer kick the PTSD can down the road, his core purpose is gone, a cornerstone of his life betrayed him, and he's struggling with guilt of leaving his men behind.
Meanwhile Obi-Wan is having the worst couple of weeks of his life. The 212 and 501 are merged under his command because there's no one to take Anakin's place as general. Words gets out why Anakin left and the clones are siding with Anakin in this divorce. Obi-Wan is being hit with the realization that he cannot do this war without Anakin, that he's broken something vital, that his attachment to Anakin is undeniable and necessary for his very being. He doesn't know how to fix this though and he's Struggling.
Anakin's marriage is disintegrating, Palpatine is pressing his advantage, and Anakin is on the verge of total collapse. Anakin misses Obi-Wan but he's burying that beneath grief and anger because those are easier to deal with.
Not sure how things work out. Anakin is on a crash course for the dark side and Obi-Wan is the only one that can stop him. Dude doesn't have a fucking clue how to do it though and Anakin sure as shit doesn't want anything to do with him at the moment. Fate of the galaxy depends on them kissing and making up but they've both got the emotional intelligence of a worm.

Thinking about that unused storyboard art from when RotS was being developed wherein while on Mustafar, Obi-Wan and Anakin encounter a giant monster which becomes an obstacle to their duel and have to team up and kill it and then they go back to trying to kill eachother. I can see why it didn't get used, but... Fucking imagine.
They’re so used to fighting on the same side- fighting in sync- and then even as enemies, they have to win one last battle as complementary halves of the same warrior. The iconic duo split beyond repair, but- their tactics and muscle memory still so in tune. Everything between them is the same and yet it will fucking never be the same again.
Then it's over, like every other storm they weathered together, and all that's left is the divide between them and the certainty that one must die at the other's hand. Except we know that's not how it ends, and the final resolution is even worse. Yet mere minutes before Obi-Wan leaves Anakin to burn, they were fighting back-to-back, like they always had.

okay, so, listen up! that future version of you? yeah, she's totally nudging you to just go for it. that thing you've been side eyeing, the dream school application, that job that makes you doubted, maybe even packing up and moving somewhere totally new! whatever it is, big or small (like finally getting that phone you want), she's saying DO IT!!! look, it's not going to be sunshine and rainbows all the time, alright? there will definitely be moments when you feel like you're out there all by yourself, alone and sad maybe, or when it feels like you're carrying the whole world on your shoulders, but this is where the magic happens, this is the part where you level upppp. you're building the you that's strong, resilient, and so much wiser than you are right now, you're learning how to stand tall, how to be a leader without being bossy, and how to turn those crazy ideas bouncing around in your head into actual, real life things. winning is definitely in the cards, but here's the secret: you gotta keep all those important things in your life - your goals, your relationships, your well being in CHECK. don’t let them slide! keep juggling, keep your eyes open, and don't u ever give up. your future self is waiting on you, and she's got some seriously awesome things planned.

seriously, future you is going to send back some major gratitude for the tiny steps you're taking now, think of it as planting seeds, I mean, you might not see the tree yet, but trust me, it's growing. your future self is whispering some encouragement right now, like, those skills you're tinkering with? you’ll nail them, all those dreams floating around in your head? they’ll start to solidify into something you can actually hold, it’s like taking a blurry photo and slowly bringing it into focus. pattention, because you're also going to get some clear vision on who and what deserves your energy. you know those situations that feel like you're running in place? you’ll finally see them for what they are and stop pouring your heart into dead ends, just think of it as clearing out the clutter in your life to make room for the stuff that truly matters. parience..? yeah, it's going to feel like your superpowerrr, but here's the thing: it only works if you keep showing up, consistent effort, even when it feels like you're not getting anywhere, is the key. keep learning, keep tweaking, keep pushing just a little bit further each day. your craft is like a muscle, the more you train it, the stronger it gets. so, start small, stay steady, and trust that future you is already celebrating your progress. you’ve got this, sweetheart!

𓆃 PILE 3
right now, you're putting up walls, but not to shut anyone out, think of it as creating a safe space so that you can protect the peace that you have worked hard to achieve, you know? looking ahead, you will be able to see yourself trimming all the unclear things in your life so that you can reach a point where you know yourself and what you want in life. This moment indicates that you have passed a big point in your life where changes occurred that made you a better version of yourself. It won't be smooth sailing all the time, along the way, some people will try to push your limits, challenge what you believe in, or make you want to give in, but you got this, you’ll be strong, you’ll speak up for what's right, but always with a kind heart, you’ll communicate to others that you will be holding your ground, you’re not going to let anyone mess with the life you’re creating for yourself. your boundaries are yours to defend, no need to feel sorry for setting them up, it’s all about making sure you’re good, and that’s something worth fighting for. the clarity you're seeking, the boundaries you’re setting, they’re all leading you to a stronger, more confident you. keep at it, and trust where you’re headed, just keep moving forward, and believe in yourself!

so..ermm..your future self is telling you that maybe you'll feel betrayed or something changes out of the blue...it’s gonna sting, no doubt, it might feel like the rug's been pulled out from under you, and you might even ask yourself, why me? or how could this happen?..it’s okay to feel all of those feelings, the anger, the sadness, the confusion, let it all out, BUT don't let it consume you, because, here's the secret: that pain? it’s fuel. what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, girl! it's going to push you to build something way stronger for yourself, something more secure, something that's truly yours. you’re going to take that fire and channel it into fresh starts, maybe it's a new career path, a new relationship, a new hobby, or a new understanding of yourself. you’ll find yourself learning to stand tall, even when people try to get under your skin. you won't back down so easily, you’ll figure out how to say no without feeling guilty, and those folks who try to drag you into their drama? you’ll learn to sidestep them with grace. this isn't about becoming cold or hard, it’s about knowing your worth and setting boundaries, about understanding that sometimes, the most painful experiences are the ones that shape us into who we're meant to be, it’s about using all of the bad to become more stronger. so, when that truth bomb drops, don't panic. take a deep breath, remember you're tougher than you think, and get ready for the amazing things that are about to unfold, you got this. you are much much more stronger than you think you are, you can get through this! i love you

𓆃 PILE 5
a year from now, things will really start taking off for you as you step into your own. you’ll feel amazing, like you're shining from the inside out, you’ll be surrounded by people who lift you up and who you genuinely connect with, and you'll have a much clearer sense of who's really got your back and who doesn't, so, you will learn the truth about people. you'll be super protective of your time and energy, focusing on what truly matters to you, that means saying no more often and prioritizing your own goals, you’ll be pouring your heart and soul into creative projects that actually make you happy, not just ones that seem like a good idea on paper. forget about forcing things; go with what feels good and lights you up from inside. also, keep an eye out for an unexpected message or new friend who can open your heart again. this could be an old acquaintance reaching out, or a complete stranger walking into your life, either way, be open to new possibilities in relationships and collaborations. looking ahead, you might find yourself drawn to exploring new hobbies, perhaps painting, writing, playing music, or even coding, the key is to find activities that allow you to express yourself and lose track of time, don’t be afraid to experiment, you never know what hidden talents you have. in terms of your career, you'll likely be seeking more autonomy and control over your work, this could mean freelancing, starting your own small business, or simply taking on more responsibility within your current role. the desire for independence will be strong, so trust that instinct and start taking steps. socially, you'll be drawn to people who share your values and passions. this is also the time to distance yourself from anyone who brings you down or doesn't support your dreams, quality over quantity is the name of the game. most importantly, remember to be kind and patient with yourself, growth takes time, and there will be ups and downs along the way. celebrate your small victories, learn from your mistakes, and trust that you're exactly where you need to be, a year from now you will be so happy about everything that happened.
