when people think anakin wouldnt have turned to the dark side if qui-gon trained him im just ?????

YOU THINK THAT WOULD HAVE STOPPED PALPATINE???

i mean qui-gon took anakin to be trained cause he thinks anakin is the chosen one or this is at least a major reason why and like??? PALPATINE WOULD HAVE JUST PIVOTED LIKE

"it's such a shame my boy that the council and even your master only see you as the chosen one and not your own person"

"i hope that they trust you as a jedi and not just part of a prophecy"

"i fear that qui gon only wants you as the chosen one and if you weren't, you would never have left tatooine"

LIKE PALPATINE WOULD HAVE DONE THAT! HE ENGINEERED A WHOLE WAR JUST TO TAKE POWER AND QUI-GON BECOMING ANAKIN'S MASTER WOULD HAVE DESTROYED PALPATINE'S PLANS???

idk just gets on my nerves and feels like a slight against obi-wan who yeah wasn't perfect and the circumstances for becoming anakin's master weren't ideal but i think he was a great master and this idea also makes palpatine seem far less manipulative, cunning, and evil

the man once said he would gladly make vader again given the chance, even knowing how it would eventually end, so he's not stopping just because anakin has a different master

#sheev palpatine #emperor palpatine #anakin skywalker #qui gon jinn #star wars #just gets on my nerves #sorry to everybody who has watched me like anakin turn to the dark side #the dark side is becoming obsessed with star wars #i have not been this obsessed with something or a character my god i love anakin but yeah not since voltron #so that's saying a lot #also from what i know about the jedi apprentice series and extended universe legends stuff about qui gon #dude does not have the best track record with padawans #he is very unorthodox and yes does not end up like the rest of the order in that like vein of being an arm of the senate or you know #being so involved in politics even tho they're peacekeepers and a religious order basically #but i think the whole chosen one thing would be much more present and constant in anakin's life #with anakin being fed both like #the in canon youre super powerful omg such a great jedi #thing from palpatine but also yeah oh they probably dont like you or trust you which is canon too except for you're their chosen one #youd probably still be a slave oops sorry but yeah you probably would be #and anakin is mentally ill enough already that palpatine taking a slightly different approach wouldn't really change much #same results different method #now... the obikin fic ideas i can come up with with qui gon being anakin's master and how all that happens #now those are fascinating
