Today was especially exhausting, tbh it's been an exhausting WEEK so today I bring you not much else other than platonic Anakin thoughts cause I love him very much and I was having some talks with my bff and Ruby! ❤️

As kids, I think my s/i and Anakin were very much the same brand of chaotic, but I was just a step further than Ani cause he's always has the expectations of The Chosen One, so even though trouble has a knack for finding him, he still cares what the Council thinks of him. I, however, have no such expectations. Not to mention a very loosey-goosey hippie Master too! Ruby suggested that that may cause a bit of tension between us because he can't be as carefree as I can.

And it all comes to a head when we're like 15 or 16 and I convince him to take a speeder out and go on a joyride with me! Maybe we get into a drag race and get mixed up with some bad sorts or some other trouble, but we're caught and reprimanded hard by the Council but he gets the worst of it, and then an earful from Obi-Wan to boot. Anakin blows up at me about it after he's excused, and at first I think he's just being stubborn, but then I get a scolding from my Master. It's mild at best, and clearly out of love because she feared for our safety but it's still enough to shake me to my core cause ouggh parental disapproval and I realize I need to buckle down and be better, and I do!

Flash forward to Attack of The Clones at the start of the war, me and Ani have both grown quite a bit and I'm one of the jedi that come to the battle of Geonosis and even help save Ani, Padmé, and Obi-Wan! I'm a Knight now, and when all is said and done I greet Ani with the same familiarity as before with "I see you've still got the dorky Padawan haircut!" "You... passed the trials??" "What, like it's hard?"

But upon seeing his face at that, I tell him how good it is to see him again and when we're alone together again we have a heart to heart. He sees I've learned that my actions have consequences and have matured a bit, and he's learned to care a little less about the Council's disapproval and trust himself more and we realize how much we missed each other and still care about each other. :'3

And after a few more jokes and a hug, we're happy to be in each other's lives again. And despite the uncertainty of a war starting, we know we'll look out for each other from now on!
