Qui-Gon: *had To Bring Kiddo Kenobi To A Meeting*

Andrew Neil Kevin

I know approximately three and a half things about Star Wars, but many of my friends know Lots about Star Wars, so I ran this by them and they said it was Chill, mostly @atagotiak. And the thought is this:

Modern AU where Ahsoka just points at Obi-Wan and goes “that’s my dad” and he goes along with it for ??? Reasons IDK she got in trouble with a mall cop and he’s like “Well fuck it she needs me to pretend to be her Legal Guardian” because he’s just barely old enough to pull it off… but… he kind of… doesn’t stop? The joke doesn’t stop.

He already knows her, because I’m imagining that Ahsoka is like… IDK some kid that Anakin is tutoring through a Big Brothers Big Sisters type thing.

(Obi-Wan’s still waiting for approval to be a foster dad but Ahsoka can recognize his dad qualities from a mile away.)

And she just knew Obi-Wan as Anakin’s older professor friend.

I imagine Ahsoka probably got in trouble for something relatively silly, like walking on the ledge around an indoor fountain as if it were a balance beam. She didn’t do anything Bad, just Technically Rule Breaking. Possibly the security guard was ignoring her as a ‘kids will be kids’ thing until she fell in and got soaked.

Later she keeps the joke up. Ahsoka, to Obi-Wan, on sight: Hi dad!!! Anakin, looking between them: Okay, what happened while I wasn’t watching and am I supposed to put a stop to it.

“Obi-Wan, did you adopt my little sister?” “Er… no, I don’t–I don’t think I signed any paperwork.” “In spirit.” “Ah. Yes, in that case, it’s a fair interpretation of events.”

“Well it’s really more like she adopted me, after all she’s the one who just declared that I’m her dad now.”

You know. From a certain point of view.

“Obi-Wan, you can’t just adopt Ahsoka without telling your husband.” “Ah, no, she asked him before I realized it was more than the shame to get her out of trouble.”

Alternatively somehow, some way, Anakin ends up her legal guardian. Anakin’s her dad now. Yes he’s 20 and she’s 14, what of it?

Obi-Wan can pull off “Yes I am their father” because the beard makes him look older. Technically, he’s like… idk thirty-five? Old enough to be feasibly a dad, if not necessarily Ahsoka’s dad. I’ve been told that people usually assume Human!Ahsoka would be black, but this entire AU is about adoption so [shrug emoji] that works!

And also like. Obi-Wan has Big Gay Vibes. Mall security will absolutely just assume.

(He’s bi? I think? I’ve been told he just flirts with almost everyone they meet? But his vibes are that of a millennial gay dad who goes shopping for organic food in Flushing despite owning a condo in Bed-Stuy. Not quite a hipster, but close.)

(Would he do this? I don’t know. But the vibes are there.)

(Mostly it’s the beard.)

If Ahsoka alternates between calling him Dad and calling him by his name, it also helps sell the “adopted slightly older” thing she was going for… which eventually becomes reality.

EDIT NOW THAT I KNOW MORE ABOUT SHIPPING NORMS AND WHATNOT:

The husband is Cody.

You can just tell Cody spent too long with Obi-Wan not to try and work out the situation peacefully and it hurts

destroyed by Commander Cody and how he had a mind control chip in his brain and yet he stayed soft. he lost every single thing that ever mattered to him in one fell swoop and he didn’t stop caring about his brothers or the citizens he’s supposed to protect.

he thinks he did Order 66 on purpose and he still chooses every single day to be a good person and to be better than that because that’s who he is. he’s good to the bone and he always has been and always will be. no matter what. it’s his core trait. and nothing can take that away no matter how hard someone tries. i’m in pain

“I’m trying to tell you that losing things doesn’t just mean losing. A lot of the time, when we lose things, we gain things too.” - our Honorary Doctorate 🥺💜

It felt like a perfect day to celebrate the Class of ’22! 🎓

ECHO IS CONTINUING WHAT FIVES COULDN'T FINISH.

SOMEBODY SEDATE ME.

I CAN'T STOP CRYING.

my 100% brutal and honest reaction to house of sky and breath after finishing it:

that book broke my back, cured my ear infection, cleared my skin, gave me more acne, killed me with a heart attack, revived me with lightning, spit in my face, and slapped me on the ass and said "good game"

and i wouldn't have it any other way

Cody isn’t dying truthers after watching TBB S2 finale:

Surprise!! 1989 (Taylor’s Version) is on its way to you 🔜! The 1989 album changed my life in countless ways, and it fills me with such excitement to announce that my version of it will be out October 27th. To be perfectly honest, this is my most FAVORITE re-record I’ve ever done because the 5 From The Vault tracks are so insane. I can’t believe they were ever left behind. But not for long! Pre order 1989 (Taylor’s Version) on my site 😎
