@wahrsagung ⧹ anakin ⧹ ❛ we’re only haunted by the things we refuse to accept. ❜ ⧹ soft thorns sentence starters
obi-wan doesn't let the surprise show in his reaction, but the words are wisdom he rarely expects from his young student. although he should rather begin to adjust his expectations, as of lately it seems anakin has been eating wisdom by the spoonful for breakfast. is this the breakthrough obi-wan has been waiting for, the step he's wanted anakin to come towards him? he is growing up. obi-wan cannot help feeling a wave of pride when he looks at him.
“ very good, anakin. remorse is a complicated thing, and we'd do good to remember, but never let your path be steered by the uncertainty of what could've been. acceptance is often the only way. ”

@griefdestined ⧹ obi-wan ⧹ ❛ you are the brave one. ❜ ⧹ soft thorns sentence prompt ( accepting )
he’s probably just saying it to get him to do it. they’re both stubborn, and it’s the source of most if not all their disagreements, though owen does not plan on giving in anytime soon. obi-wan is right, he is the brave one, or at least braver than his brother, so he’ll hold his chin high and take the provocation as literal. their masters would probably be disappointed — since they are younglings their temper has gotten them into trouble, and this confrontation will be no different. he doesn’t want to imagine the lecture they’ll get otherwise, though, and there’s no harm if you don’t get caught. hopefully obi-wan at least has his back.
“ fine, ” he huffs, and he’s trying not to look too defeated. “ watch out in the hall then. make some noise when someone’s near and i’ll find a place to hide. ” great. now how to break into an older padawan’s room to take back the sabers that they ‘ confiscated ’...

name: obi-wan kenobi
residence: jedi temple on coruscant / across the galaxy / tatooine
the number of blankets: one or none
the number of pillows: one or none
type of clothes: under layers, wide tunics, light linen, traditional gear and wraps, assigned robes, earthy and sandy colors, whatever seems inconspicuous. not infrequently he is forced to simply sleep in his daily wear
do they sleep with company?: no, though are you ever alone when the force is with you?
does it matter where they sleep?: not at all. years of training have made him able to sleep and meditate anywhere under almost any condition.
what do they do if they cannot fall asleep?: meditate
frequent dreams, nightmares?: very frequent, often repeating. it’s hard not to hold onto them too much, because the force may grant visions but sometimes dreams are just dreams.
deep slumber or naps?: almost exclusively naps and light sleep. especially when he is outside of the temple he rests in more of a deep meditative state and is still somewhat alert.
when do they sleep?: at night? or when he has to, there’s no real night in deep space.
what could wake them up?: he is alert to unusual sounds and shifts in atmosphere so. technically anything.

@i-am-no-jedi-tano ⧹ ahsoka ⧹ ❛ i don’t know how to fall asleep anymore. ❜ ⧹ soft thorns sentence prompt ( accepting )
ahsoka is a padawan like no other — apart from being one of the most unruly ones he has met and being taught be the unruliest of masters, she is in a position few of them at the order have ever had to live through. the jedi apprenticeship is perhaps unique to every student, no less due to the times and the conflicts that mark them. though none of them have had to grow into a knight in the midst of a galactic war. sooner or later, every padawan will witness their first death, see slaughter and treachery, war and other terrors. but they all return to a safe world, where they can hope for a more peaceful next mission. ahsoka encounters the terrors of war every day, it's no surprise that they follow her even to bed at night.
" these are trying times, young one. never lose focus, though. let the force guide you. " obi-wan pauses. there's no less generic advice he could give. " have you tried meditation? "

@sithchosen ⧹ anakin ⧹ ❛ you are the brave one . ❜ ⧹ soft thorns sentence prompt ( accepting )
they're only few hours from landing and obi-wan can sense his padawan's nerves. he has to be careful not to distract him more; this is perhaps the first truly dangerous territory they've entered during anakin's apprenticeship, and any mistake could have grave consequences. this kind of worry that seems so innate in his student is not the way of a jedi, though, and it's on obi-wan alone to train it out of him. he promised the council this much, and qui-gon, and anakin himself.
" calm yourself, anakin. this matter doesn't require bravery, only trust in the force. turn your focus away from your thoughts and towards your senses. reach out into the force. ground yourself, if you must. we don't have much time. "
