Is it just me or is this Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano, like.... young-ish mentor who is totally ridiculous but also helpful while teaching Ahsoka to murder people....
The only thing that doesn’t fit is that Ahsoka totally thinks Anakin’s a dope.
No more wise old mentors. From now on your mentor options are
1. old mentor that turns out to have at least the same amount of chaotic dumbass energy as the protagonist
2. mentor that is the same age or younger than the protagonist and is only in the position of mentor because they have experience with one specific thing, but in every other respect they are just as young and dumb as the protagonist is
A clone made documentary about why Jedi are like cats with video proof (always awake and knocking shit over at 3am, sleep in piles, do long blinks and turn their backs to people they trust, will happily sit in the same room without acknowledging you and consider it quality time, little chaos monsters, can eat a whole bantha, love bread) and a Jedi just quietly responds with their own documentary about how that also describes clones To A T, and the galaxy just imploded with the footage of clones and Jedi in sleep piles and being assholes to each other and it’s great it’s honestly great.
‘Jedi, much like cats, have a parental instinct for raising children, but then when the time comes for them to go their separate ways, they do so with a fake stoic grace that is all 100% bullshit because they can’t keep out they children’s lives for more than ten seconds without wondering if they’re okay these dumbass little hypocritical-‘

re: Anakin and Obi Wan teaching Rey all the 'good moves' - one day she's gonna bust out one of those as a hail mary and it'll work and Luke's gonna be all 'YOU'VE BEEN TALKING TO MY FATHER, HAVEN'T YOU!!!'
[The Resistance, trapped in some skirmish, facing Impossible Odds] Poe: REY! We’re surrounded! Do something! Be a Jedi, damn it! Do some…Jedi stuff!Rey: [frantic] But I’ve only had two weeks of part-time Jedi training! And my instructor was severely depressed during the entire duration! And the only other Jedi I’ve ever met have been dead for several decades, and they’re really weird!Rose: [hurling a grenade] What?!Finn: [fighting back a hail of blaster fire] WELL TRY SOMETHING, REY, OR WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE!Rey: Uh…um…OK…well…[calls upon the Force and tentatively strikes a Serious Pose][everyone freezes; the encroaching First Order halts] Finn: [almost passes out]Kylo: [stepping forward, intrigued but mostly pissed off] Oh, sure! You think you’re the heir apparent, don’t you?! Well, check THIS out! [pauses, tousles his hair and pouts] Hux: [shaken] …good gods. Rey: [intensely] Ha! Take this! [dramatically drops her cloak as a choir kicks in] Kylo: …amateur. [drops his cloak, does an unnecessary backflip, swooshes his lightsaber around]Rey: Hmmph! [pulls her hair out of a ponytail, winks at a random First Order officer] Hello there. Poe: [flushed] …oh, kriff.Finn: [sitting down] …I’m gonna die. Rose: [decidedly impressed] Wow. Kylo: [rips his shirt off] Rey: [jumps on top of a nearby cliff as the clouds part and a sunbeam shines on her, a giant gust of wind coming out of nowhere][12 hours later]Luke’s Force Ghost: [shaking his head] …you guys got to her, didn’t you? Anakin’s Force Ghost: [camped out, watching this while eating popcorn] …and I am not sorry. Look at them go! She’s amazing. And, I hate to say it, but my grandson is hanging in there. I’ve never seen anything like this!Obi-Wan’s Force Ghost: Incredible! A quadruple dramatic disrobe! Where did she even get all those extra cloaks?!Yoda’s Force Ghost: [pouring champagne while tearing up] So proud, I am.
Imagine if Darth Vader had raised the twins.

[Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Ahsoka, traveling through space] Anakin: [piloting while drinking a soda through a straw] [still drinking] [runs out of soda] [still making loud drinking noises] Obi-Wan: [slight eyelid twitch] Ahsoka: [playing something on her phone] This…is really boring. Can we stop for a bathroom break? Anakin: There’s a refresher on the ship, Snips. Ahsoka: [dramatic sigh] I just wanted to get a change of scenery. This is taking forever! Obi-Wan: Now now, Ahsoka, patience is an essential element of being a Jedi. [sotto voce] How much longer do we have left, Anakin? It’s been ages. Shouldn’t we be home by now? Anakin: Not too much longer. [under his breath] About three days. Ahsoka: What?! Obi-Wan: Three days?! Anakin: Well I thought I’d discovered this great shortcut. That maybe turned out to be a hyperspace lane going in the opposite direction. And normally I would have noticed sooner but I kind of…fell asleep. Obi-Wan: Anakin! Ahsoka: [covering her face with a travel pillow] Oh my gods…three more days of this… Anakin: Well I’m sorry, but it sure seems like my former Master should have woken me up, except that the old man fell asleep earlier than I did! Obi-Wan: Oh, so this is my fault? You choosing an unapproved alternate route without telling anyone is on me? Ahsoka: [throws a candy wrapper at Anakin’s head] Anakin: Young lady, that is not model Padawan behavior! [takes another long, loud sip from his empty soda] Obi-Wan: [scowling at him] As if you’d know anything about model Padawan behavior. Anakin: [throws the candy wrapper at Obi-Wan] Obi-Wan: I feel my point is proven. Anakin: [pointedly takes another drink] Ahsoka: Oh my GODS, please STOP DRINKING THAT! Obi-Wan: [grabs it out of his hand and throws the can across the room] This! Bloody thing! Is empty! [all three of them yelling at each other] Mace: [popping up via holo-Skype] Kenobi, Skywalker, Padawan Tano: is everything all right? We expected you back by now. Do you need assistance? Anakin: [nodding] Oh, Master Windu, we’re fine. Just a little…uh… Obi-Wan: …traffic! Congestion. A very large…construction…project. Ahsoka: [nodding and smiling] My Masters have got it all figured out. Don’t you worry, Master Windu! We’ll be home soon!
Me @ Lucasfilm it’s not that hard you guys
most annoying man vs. world's strongest idgafker!! who will win!!
Anyways I keep thinking that group chats totally must be a Thing in the star wars universe, and how (in the Clone Wars era) there probably is definitely a:
Jedi Council group chat (and they definitely gossip about everyone, from Initiates to Masters. They are also running at least 20 bets about Jedi in the Temple.)
Lineage group chat (ie. Yoda, Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Ahsoka all have a group chat but they don’t really use it much because Anakin and Ahsoka have trouble figuring out what is appropriate for them to talk about with Yoda)
The group chat with Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Ahsoka is pretty lit though. Most of the time it’s funny arguments between Obi-Wan and Anakin, and Ahsoka just LOL-ing the whole time.
group chats with all the clone commanders/leaders, complaining about their Jedi and comparing notes (Cody being like “Do you guys also need to force your Jedi to eat and sleep, or is it just me?”, or Rex asking “How the hell do I say no to Skywalker, the man never listens!”, etc.)
A group from the 501st and Ahsoka have a group chat where they make fun of Anakin. They keep a running tally of the number of times he had crashed a ship, just for giggles.
