as sweet as obikin is i do lean towards vaderwan having more of a fighting chance. ironically. in a ruthlessly practical sense, because of who they are as characters, and how they respond to each other. like if we are going with They're In Love, but they're still Like That, then if anakin actually does open up to obi-wan with the titular I Love You. I Am In Love With You, then obi-wan can still very likely respond with some kind of snippy, "No, you don't?" which would only get anakin like pretty upset, in a Don't tell me what i can and cannot feel kinda way, but obi-wan wouldn't relent and then they'd get into an argument about it with anakin throwing some Why Do You Always Need To Dismiss Me and obi-wan just being a general non-believer due to All They Got Going On, and then they'd storm off and not talk to each other for a few days and then if they confront it again it'd start all over, and both might be too butthurt to reach out with a next step or a different approach first.

and meanwhile if vader takes the romantic initiative, then there wouldn't be any of that. the whole thing would happen backwards, no dillydallying, no room for arguments. he wouldn't even use words, just snatch obi-wan and now they're married. in fact, they have been married, for a while now, obi-wan just didn't know and finally came home. and then they can have the wedding later, and then they can date or court or whatever. and then vader would actually drop the L bomb or at least communicate that he's interested. he's working backwards because That's How Shit Gets Done. and what's obi-wan gonna do? "No, you don't" him? no, not this time, not with this alternative. he's been atticwifed. at this point a significant amount of time has past, it's excruciatingly clear what vader intends for them to have going on. he's married. relationship established. no room for anything but vader giving him no choice but to sit down and comprehend it. resistance is futile, etc etc.

Thinking about how Anakin canonically both touched grass and got laid and was still Like That.

very very evil to be a child in 2008 and an adult in 2025

The best way I can describe to an allo person how you feel about sex as a topic as a sex-repulsed or averse asexual is that it feels like a hype that never ends. As though Despicable Me came out and everyone around you was sending minion facebook memes to each other for years to come. The stores are full of minion themed products; they're in ads and your friends talk about them all the time. And deep in your heart you're like "I'm glad that they're able to enjoy something I personally don't like and am not interested in :3". But there is always this little voice in the back of your head that's like "If I have to see ONE MORE of these little yellow FUCKERS today then God help us all." You make an active choice to communicate only the former.

calling out for my mom in a moment of extreme pain and terror, but taking an aside to explain to the audience that i mean i want the concept of a mother as caregiver and protector to defend and rescue me rather than my literal mom, whose presence would neither bring me comfort nor improve the situation

see the thing is to me that obi-wan isn't even aware he's utterly in love with anakin. he's so deeply repressing his feelings he just doesnt know. he doesnt even admit he's attached to anakin until halfway through the mustafar fight for fuck's sake! (thank u rots novelization) this man does not know. padmé knows. palpatine knows. other council members probably know. obi-wan does not know.

anakin knows he is in love with obi-wan. or more accurately was. by the time of aotc he's so starved for any sign of deeper care on obi-wan's end (romantic or otherwise) that he's just fucking given up. he moves on to his next long standing romantic interest because padmé will actually goddamn acknowledge his overtures and then later return them. i think anakin's basically chosen to forget about it, bury it completely until that point in rots where palpatine starts driving a wedge between anakin & everyone else (padmé, the order & obi-wan) its once he believes obi-wan has betrayed him that all that hurt comes roaring back. and he throws it at obi-wan as rage in the mustafar fight. he may have choked padmé out with the force, but for obi-wan he uses his hand.

just met a lady who thought languages were made up. and by that i mean she thought that for every lanaguage that exists a group of people sat down and created a language from scratch. they pointed at a boat and they said “what should we call that” and one guy said “boat” and then they wrote that down
