I saw a post mentioning Ahsoka was originally assigned to Obi-Wan and I’m like ??? Like, yes Obi-Wan asked for a new padawan but the first thing Ahsoka says as she arrives is that she was assigned to Anakin

Edit: if you don’t want to read the tags: I rewatched the scenes from the movies and it’s said several times she was assigned to Anakin by Yoda himself and at the end it’s implied Obi-Wan helped. She was never assigned to Obi-Wan.

#I can't claim that it wasn't a mistake from the order (I think that's what Obi-Wan or Anakin say at one point #but I can't recall if they did)#and there are at least two other possible interpretations that are:#that Obi-Wan says he asked for a padawan but it was a ruse to assign one to Anakin #or that even if Obi-Wan asked for a padawan Yoda assigned her to Anakin anyways #And I think that the movie says something like Obi-Wan will take over her training once Anakin decides he doesn't want a padawan #before he changes his mind and takes her #like I get it you like the Obi-Wan & Ahsoka dynamics #You like to think they were actually much closer than what we see in canon #or you don't like Anakin as a character and so you push him aside at any chance you get #but going from that to affirm she was originally assigned to Obi-Wan hun I think you're projecting your hc #REWATCHED THE SCENE JUST NOW #And Anakin is the one that says it must have been a mistake because he didn't want a padawan #Ahsoka insists Yoda assigned her to ANAKIN #(also Obi-Wan has been pestering Anakin about becoming a teacher)#AND THEN after Anakin accepts Ahsoka and they meet with Obi-Wan and Yoda #Yoda says that Obi-Wan was telling him about Anakin having trouble with his new padawan #So yup I think we can discard the mistake option from above #Yoda assigned her to Anakin and Anakin only #and suggested reassigning her to Obi-Wan when he heard that Anakin was hesitating #And after that is all said and done Obi-Wan teases Anakin about teaching her (Teach her everything I taught you)#And Anakin says something makes me think this was YOUR idea from the start #so the scene implies Obi-Wan requested the padawan for Anakin but it's never confirmed #so yeah she was never assigned to Obi-Wan to begin with #play with your aus all you want but don't sell it as if it were actually canon #fandom salt #personal
