#Padawan cut

[padawansuggest]

While I’m at it, since y’all seem to be forcing your ideas on me and I think that’s nasty, let me tell you MY (as in, mine, not necessarily yours) ideas on the Padawan cut with Obi-Wan: I see Obi-Wan’s little smirk in TPM and I’m like ‘yeah, that boy goes over his master’s knee nearly daily’ and I stick by that assessment. He’s a naughty boy. He’s mischievous. He’s a cat who pushes your cup off the table when you don’t pay enough attention to him. He has a constantly sore bottom from punishment from Antics™️. He’s just a Little Guy. He ate too many candies and has a tummy ache. He’s got an oral fixation and keeps breaking pens. He’s a baby boy. A sugar baby. He doesn’t know the value of a credit he just hands the bill to someone richer and trembles his lip when he doesn’t get his way. He’s got silly syndrome!!!

Where as I see the Jesus cut (that shit ain’t a mullet you don’t KNOW what a mullet is he just hasn’t had a haircut in a while) and I’m like ‘ew. Now I know why they crucified the original.’ And that’s lol.

FIRST MEETING!

The first time they actually meet, finally!

I had wanted to draw this for so long, but other things always seemed more important at that moment, so I just kept postponing it🙈

Cal Kestis Week Day 2 - "That doesn't look good."

"It was only a 10 meter fall, Prauf, I'm fine."

"That still doesn't look good, Cal."

Or : Prauf doing his best to look after his new little charge who can't seem to keep away from getting hurt.

Jesus shitting christ, I just finished ch 6 of weeding out our wildfires, and how is it that every time I think things cannot possibly get any more heartwrenching, there come lines like 'that love that surpasses mother and wife and freedom itself—it is not enough' holy fuck. YOUR WRITING IS SO. FUCKING. GOOD. I am crawling out of my own skin for Anakin's sake, holy shit. (God, he really will never be normal about that old man. AND I LOVE IT.)

Also I just. I read the fic last night and hours later I'm still orbiting around this line: Yeah, alright, swee—yeah, okay, Obi-Wan

THE ABORTED TENDERNESS. THE WAY MY HEART SKIPPED A BEAT AS ANAKIN CUT HIMSELF OFF. GOD. HELP. The way Anakin uses endearments (in your fic in general, and in this line specifically) makes me FERAL. I don't - i can't even describe why or how, just that it's so tastydelicious for my brain and every time it happens I get the very real urge to start chewing on concrete.

ALL OF THIS to say, holy fucking shit, thank you so much for sharing your writing! Your stories are incredible and it is such a joy to read them (including when I'm drowning in my own tears).

hello im so sorry for answering this ask late (aka after i posted chapter 7) BUT thank you so much for this i loved reading this ask (and i did multiple times) and it made me want to write chapter 8 that much faster

thank you for noticing all these things and loving them!! to talk only about one, yes!! anakin almost called obi-wan sweetheart and then i hope no one recovered

BECAUSE he choked on it!! and because he thinks (in chapter 6) that he can never truly label obi-wan as anything but 'master ' and 'obi-wan' so how can he possible say sweetheart??

i obviously love anakin calling obi-wan any number of pet names but i don't think we've spent enough time thinking about anakin feeling as if the ONLY pet name/nickname he is allowed to give to obi-wan is 'master'. it's like. either master or obi-wan? nah. we can do better.

like the consolidation of everything he wants to call obi-wan down to only his name or his title or some half-bitten off endearment??? i could write essays about that i think

😳😳 obikin i never posted under the cut

[bolithesenate]

u ever get a very distinct vision of a character in your mind and everyone else is factually incorrect?

i am having Komari Vosa thoughts

(canon never happened, you cannot make me believe otherwise)

I think obi-wan would also fixate on those little curls at the back of anakin’s neck

Oh absolutely! The little curls are just so cute and probably fuzzy and I bet they get curlier when Anakin sweats (am I too weird about this guy? Don't answer that) so that's worth fixating on already. But then there's the knowledge that Anakin's hair will be curly if he lets it grow out which I think would be devastating for Obi-Wan on several levels.

not my best work but i liked the colors

I've been reading the High Republic comics for the first time, and it made me realise something i really want to see in 'The Acolyte'.

we have yet to see a jedi padawan being knighted in live action. And I would love to see it, the few times we actually *have* seen the ceremony it's always felt like a big moment with really a big amount of weight behind it. Like when it happend to Kanan in 'Rebels', or with Keeve Trennis in the comic I was talking about or even with Anakin back in the original 'Star Wars: Clone wars' cartoon.

+ some more doodles including Saz (Sith raised Az) and canon Azzure because I like making comparison doodles

So I’ve been thinking about the imagery of padawan braids, and honestly, they’re grossly underused as a visual storytelling tool.

Like, we have a character design/ lore element signifying the particular character being young and inexperienced, you could also interpret it as a way to signify to others like “hey, I’m still learning”, and we don’t use its presence or, rather, the lack thereof, to show that youth or inexperience are/are not allowed in the particular situation we find ourselves in. (Examples after the cut)

Imagine, for example, the master of a master-padawan-duo being injured in the field and therefore being incapacitated (make that injury as serious as you want all that’s important is that the master is out of the picture in the moment). Now before the padawan, who may be still needed in the operation or needs to get help, or maybe they just need to keep a cool head in the situation and get their master to safety, it doesn’t matter, they take down their hair (I have no idea what the ponytail-thing most Jedi w/ hair on their heads have going on is called okay) and when they re-tie it, they tie the braid back with the rest of their hair. A padawan wearing beads would maybe tie the beads up so they form a loop at the back of their head.

Anyway, it’s just such an impactful way to show that “this character now is on their own in this situation and cannot allow themselves to be young and inexperienced anymore” and I don’t see it done nearly enough.

1000% true reason Ezra's hair got short for s3 is bc Chopper Base is a warmer climate than Lothal and Ezra's got that nice thick hair yknow so time to give himself an edgy teen undercut (or whatever emo vibe he's going for that reduces hair on his head) to get his scalp to breathe. and so he has sabine come do it. but sabine is a perfectionist and, more importnatly, an older sibling. so she messes up once and goes "fuck" and then shaves him bald and tells him to come back in 6 months to try again

[loveoaths]

my favorite random headcanon is that there is no padawan haircut, actually. yoda just Did That to his young, incredibly vain padawan dooku because dooku got mad and called him an ugly toad once, and out of sheer pettiness and “If I have to suffer, we ALL have to suffer” energy, dooku made it a “tradition” among the disaster lineage. none of them question this because the idea that the venerable Jedi council member yoda created this godawful haircut for shits and giggles does not even cross their minds.
