Some disaster lineage Dragon!Jedi AU fluff

Obi-wan: Don't you have your own wing?

Anakin: Yeah, but those aren't warm

[aberrantcreature]

Basically what happens when Knight Kenobi gets back to Naboo and his queen with the newly-rescued skywalker, Anakin, one who seems rather intent on staying by his rescuers side.

[galactic-rhea]

AU where every force sensitive has a familiar (or daemons, for the His Dark Material fans), and Palpatine's is just this big and pretty beetle (or maybe even a butterfly!) No one realizes is his daemon because, to pretend, he just puts it on a jar, which would be the most horrific and inhuman and taboo thing ever if it were a daemon so people think he just likes bugs.

This opens a whole new world of awfullness for Palpatine and his Evil-Sith stuff, because now you have literal physical manifestations of souls.

Imagine the jedi (and the sith) having to go thorugh that painful training to being able to separate from your daemon for long distances, but it's for the better, really-

Imagine Palpatine keeping Maul's daemon in a cage, only allowing Maul to see them from time to time. Imagine Palpatine awfully twisting and touching (again, something super duper taboo) Anakin's daemon as if they were his own pet.

Anakin's daemon comforting Ahsoka's after battle by curling around them!!!!

Or Anakin's daemon physically manifesting the grooming and how Anakin's mind is being twisted, they gain a sickly look, with mutted colors, dull eyes.

What if Vader losts his daemon in Mustafar, they die along with Padmé. Is unheard of, an aberration, to have someone losing their daemon and yet surviving, a true monster.

The posibilities. The evil possibilities.

And I wanna believe that Obi-Wan's daemon would be a super fluffy loth-cat.

Weird Egg?

Okay so in theory, Obi-Wan was plausibly on Mandalore when Anakin was born, right?

(this is technically a variation on a few other fics and AUs I've seen, and I'll list the stuff that came to mind at the end.)

While on Mandalore, Obi-Wan finds An Egg while hiding in a cave with Satine. And he doesn't recognize it, and Satine doesn't recognize it, and even Qui-Gon doesn't recognize it.

Which makes it weird, at the very least, and probably rare. It's the size of his HEAD and even though there's no parent around, the egg is… warm, now? He didn't notice at first, but it's definitely producing at least some of its own heat.

So Obi-Wan brings the egg with him, which is a pain in the ass in terms of maneuvering, but they do seem to have better luck avoiding Death Watch than before, which uh. Given that the egg feels warmer when they're getting lucky, and seems to glow in the Force, they think might not be a coincidence. A lucky rock, except it's alive.

Mission ends. Obi-Wan plans to take the egg back to the temple for study in case they just discovered Something, and as he's saying goodbye to Satine… the egg Hatches.

It is a dragon.

The dragon can project words into Obi-Wan's mind. It's not quite capable of complex thoughts yet, but it's a he (probably), and has a name (Anakin!), and considers the person who's been carrying him and protecting him and keeping him warm for the past six months to be his mom!

Obi-Wan protests at this. Qui-Gon decides to make his life harder with the 'correction' that Obi-Wan would be a dad, not a mom.

So now Obi-Wan has a small dragon which will be growing to the size of a house, that imprinted on him and is following him home and calling him dad and insisting on sleeping in his bed

Idk if you've ever read Septimus Heap, but… the MC of that found a Fancy Rock, put it in his bag, carried it around for a YEAR because he kept forgetting to take it out of his bag, and then it hatched into a dragon. And I kept thinking about that the whole time I wrote this.

In Obi-Wan's defense, he does Have A Plan.

Until the dragon hatches, turns out to be a sapient as a toddler (with promise of growth), and calls him Dad.

And now the plan is gone.

He just wanted to bring a cool egg back to the Temple for study!

And now the Mandalorians are pulling out old books about whatever the fuck this is because these things APPARENTLY went extinct around the same time as the underwater dragon-adjacent thing that is the Mythosaur.

Obi-Wan learns that supposedly the eggs are inert until something with the Force interacts with it in a Purposeful Manner.

Which includes "probing it a little to see if whatever is inside is actually alive."

Anakin's a standard western dragon that can breathe fire because Flyte. Also this post.

Weeeee okay small text for the references I mentioned.

Obviously, first up is the Septimus Heap series by Angie Sage, specifically Magyk and Flyte.

The fic series I was thinking of initially that kind of jumpstarted the AU process was Boga Service Varactyl AU, but specifically Kenobi Kafé Service Animal Boga AU.

I've been seeing a couple of dragon shapeshifter AUs, including that post I linked earlier from @ahsoka-in-a-hood, @bubblew0lf1's dragon shapeshifter AU, and @squad-724's Dragon Jedi AU has been all over my dash for the past few days.

Stubborn to the Bones by @tideswept, which was part of what had me connecting the various dots of Obi-Wan Finding Animal Anakin on a mission, though our outcomes are admittedly very different lol. (Their fic is shippy, and mine is more decidedly gen/familial with a slight nod to Obitine.)

Medieval dragon Jedi au:

Commander Fox bonds with Chancellor’s „crazy dangerous” dragon, learns his true name and with the vode wants to free the dragons from the Republic’s control

It doesn’t help that Skywalker was kept away from other dragons since he was 9, only cared for by Sidious and became distrustful of any human in his vicinity

Happy year of the dragon 🐉

[marcusagrippa]

anakin was not born with the teeth of a star-eater, ferrous-black and always dripping blood. his halo did not used to shine so brightly that it hurt his master's eyes, his skin did not always shift and ripple like the surface of a newly-forming planet as the magma churns beneath. his eyes used to be soft and blue and human. he did not grow into his own radiance like it was an oversized sweater, nor did it grow from within him, transforming him gradually from within; his greatness was thrust upon him by a creature who whispered dark promises with the voices of a thousand evil men. he does not want it, this power, and it does not want him.

he is glad his mother has never known him like this. in the depths of his spiralling despair he finds himself almost glad she died, so that she remembers him as human and not... this. supernova child, borne of the cosmos. sky-walker. he is not the son of the stars, he is the son of shmi - wide-eyed boy, sunburnt cheeks, shock blonde hair. the galaxy will not remember him that way.

they will know him as monstrous. she knew him as kind.

I decided to do a redraw of Dragon!Rexwalker and Ahsoka drawing, so here we are! New and improved with updated designs!

(Old drawing do under the cut)

The Dark Wyrm

Here is my gift to MillionLights on ao3, as part of the Vaderkin creative exchange 2024 organised by @vaderkin-is-a-lightning-rod

Once I’ve read your prompt, the picture wouldn’t leave my head, so here it is!

Snippet #1 - Aftermath

Obi-Wan and Dragon!Anakin escape, with the main casualty being Anakin’s arm. This is the late-night, unedited, rambling edition of a conversation that comes later- after the reveal that Dragon!Anakin is In Fact Vader The Sith.

Dw tho. I’m sure things go fine later. Mace is gonna be thrilled.

•Snippet Below!•

“Vader… your arm needs treatment. This ship’s kit barely has a decent strip of bacta, you need professional medical treatment-“

“Then drop me off at the next spaceport, and go home, Obi-wan.”

The Jedi seemed torn, and at that he could only growl through clenched teeth. The room swayed, another flash of pain left him almost breathless, clouding his senses and adding to the fog coating his thoughts.

Obi-Wan was shaking his head. Why was Obi-Wan shaking his head?

“I’m not going to abandon you.”

“Why not?!”

“Because you are injured! Severely!”

“That has never stopped anyone before!” Anakin’s growl turned thunderous, eyes flashing sickly golden-yellow. Obi-Wan faltered, before setting his jaw and staring back just as fiercely.

“Jedi do not just discard their allies- their friends- so easily.”

“Good, because I am neither-“ Anakin hissed, irritation and pain fueling his ire against this stubborn, stupid old man. “- I am a Monster, Jedi Knight. Worse even- a Sith Monster.” He spat, teeth sharpening into fangs even as a white-hot pounding in his bones warned against any further shift.

“I don't need your mercy or your help.”

The sad look he got from Obi-Wan in response only stoked the flames. With a bitter curse he moved to stand- only to try and brace himself with his missing hand. A guttural cry ripped from his throat as the roughly-bandaged remains of his forearm failed him, sending him to the floor in a rather inelegant heap.

Or well- he would’ve ended up there had Obi-Wan not caught him. He fell limp against the Jedi, his remaining hand clutching the other’s robes as he let himself be guided down to their knees. The gentleness and care that Obi-Wan took startled him, so abruptly different from his usual existence. It felt utterly surreal, like this was all merely a fever dream.

“No monster would’ve saved my young padawan like you did- no sith would’ve taken the care to ensure safe escape for all those slaves at the camp.”

“…” Anakin shivered, falling into the warmth of the Jedi holding him up, breathing ragged and broken. His arm burned, his senses felt muddled- the force was muted in a way it never had been before and instinctively, he knew it was associated with the loss of his arm. It would never be the same again.

“I- I am no friend of the Jedi.” His voice felt hoarse, and his words lost their bite. He was pretty sure he’d reopened something and was bleeding all over Obi-Wan. “You and Ahsoka don’t count. You’re both crazy.”

He got a quiet chuckle at that.

“But I’m serious. What do you think will happen when you bring me back to that fancy temple of yours on Coruscant?”

“You’ll get medical treatment, and proper care afterwards. You have valuable information- a deal could be struck for your safety. A sort of witness protection.”

Anakin could only blink up at the man owlishly, his sheer naivety astounding. “Obi-Wan…. I’ll be put in suppressing cuffs and thrown in the brig. They’ll torture whatever information they want out of me and then kill me if they know what’s good for them.”

Even before he was done talking, the other’s head was shaking ‘no’. Again. Damn him.

“Please- trust me. If you can’t trust the Jedi, trust in me. I won’t let your wounds go untreated- you lost your arm saving us, Vader. If you don’t get treatment now you may lose your life-“ his voice cracked, and to Anakin’s flagging consciousness, the emotion over something so trivial made absolutely no sense.

But… Obi-Wan believed it. The truth of his promise chimed out into the force, even muted as it was. He was so, so tired…..

“Fine.” He huffed, “do as you see fit.” Black spots flitted in and out of his vision- making his head hurt something fierce. He thought he may have heard his name being called as his eyes slid shut and he slumped against the warmth at his side- but he was unconscious again before it could matter.

Obi-wan was left holding his new charge- hoping desperately that he wasn’t making some horrible, horrible mistake.

[tennessoui]

hm. gffa dragon rider au where all force-sensitives are born with an egg that hatches into their own dragon when the time is right, and obi-wan was accepted into the temple as a Jedi youngling even though his egg hadn’t hatched because sometimes it takes a few years before it hatches, but then the egg literally never hatches and no master wants him because he’s so angry and emotional about his dragon egg that has not hatched (though he is sure it’s because so many Jedi activities focus on dragon riding and bonding with one’s dragon and he doesn’t have one yet)

 so he is sent to the agricorps, drops out, is recruited by the sith eventually because his anger has power behind it. power and possibility.

then anakin is born and his dragon egg hatches immediately....and across the galaxy, obi-wan’s own dragon egg hatches as if it were waiting for the perfect time. its perfect match.

but anyway, obi-wan and anakin meet for the first time on the battlefield during the clone wars, having no idea who the other is....only for their dragons to imprint on one another because dragons do not care for the battles and follies of men. what does a dragon care about the galactic republic? about the Sith? it only knows that its other half is across the battlefield and it will not stand to see them injured.

is that anything.

Disaster trio as dragons!

I was bored and wanted to draw dragons. I’m planning to make more of these and I actually want to write a fic for this now

[aberrantcreature]

A common practice for skywalkers that most have forgotten about due to the near extinction of their species, is hoarding. Specifically, the hoarding of shiny objects. Skywalkers aren't picky. It could be a diamond or a penny, as long as is sparkles.

The castle soon comes to realize that a lot of jewels, coins, small armor plating, and silverware have gone missing.

Most, rightfully, come to the conclusion that Anakin has stashed the missing object under Obi-Wans bed.

((Also yes I forgot his scars but it's too late now sushdidhdhd))

[babkaboy]

i heard targaryens in valyria may have had a custom of having sex on dragonback and now i'm having completely pure thoughts about your game of thrones obikin au...

dude i kid you not that i didn’t know abt this piece of lore but i swear as i was drawing this au i kept thinking about obi-wan getting fucked on the back of a dragon 👀 perhaps it wasn’t anything planned but anakin finally got to drag obi-wan to share the saddle with him and during the flight obi-wan is losing his shit and totally terrified and nothing turns anakin on more like obi-wan crying, suffering or being scared lmao his maestre was asking to be bad touched in the air

[phoenixyfriend]

I have a(nother) stupid fic idea

Specifically I'm imagining Obi-Wan as a horse girl for Dragon!Anakin. Have you read Dragonsdale by The Two Steves? It's that, but Obi-Wan and feral dragon Ani.

(I know there's a whole post about Obi-Wan being a horse girl but usually it's metaphorical about Anakin being a nightmare person. Unfortunately, it's a post that search engines have decided doesn't exist, and since miss-kirby/medusaceratops's original blog has been deleted, it cannot be located through there.)

[squad-724]

My friend @toomanyteefs asked about Ahsoka in the dragon Jedi au, so I present: Tano, a raptor-like menace that likes to nap on Rex

Also have a size chart of the diseaster lineage

Up next will be Plo and Wolfee
