A More Civilized Age

JinnObi 2023 / QuiObi Bingo Prompt - "Physical Changes".

In some AU where Qui-Gon survives Naboo, he probably spent part of his recovery in the creche and got gum stuck to his hair.

also here are some sketches for you, because in the DJ I can do only sketches

Hello!

Welcome to the QuiObi Bingo. This will be the first bingo focusing on the relationship between Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, both gen and romantic.

Q: What is a bingo?

A: A bingo is a fandom challenge where participants fill as many prompts as possible. You will receive a card (either a 3x3, 4x4 or 5x5 grid) containing a prompt in each square, and the goal is to try to get a bingo by completing prompts in a line (vertical, horizontal or diagonal) or a blackout if you fill all of the prompts.

Please note that this is intended as a low-pressure bingo and will likely run until the end of the year. More info will be coming soon.

Even if you don’t think you can manage a bingo or if you think you’ll only fill one prompt, or aren’t sure you’ll be able to fill any, we would still love to have you take part!

If you are interested, please fill out our interest check here!

“And how do you plan to deal with this delay, Lord Vader?”

1. Qui-Gon was not petitioning for himself to train Anakin initially. He wanted him trained in general, but the council said no so he said “I’ll take responsibility and do it then”. It was supernatural conviction, not a vanity project.

2. He only put Obi-Wan up for his trials because the council said he couldn’t train Anakin while still having another padawan. He had no other way out if Anakin was to be trained at that point.

3. Obi-Wan is upset, because he wasn’t warned or consulted (because Qui-Gon didn’t plan on training Anakin himself!), but he backs up his master in the moment and doesn’t hold a personal grudge because he’s a freaking Jedi (though he continues to agree with the council on the danger Anakin poses).

Imagine you’re Obi-Wan. You’ve seen a lot of weird shit and trauma in your 30-odd years working as a  government subcontractor, then while chasing down a lead and pulling a scooby-doo, you stumble over a group of folks who are taking ‘civil war reenactment’ as a suggestion for real life choices, including trying to murder an old acquaintance of yours.

Then your weird eccentric distant uncle shows up – the one you’ve heard of but never met, that cut off the entire rest of the family for reasons? you guess?, but you don’t even hear gossip at Thanksgiving – he shows up, and he’s turned into this apocalypse prepper and is running this shitshow. After condoning the torture the locals did to you while you were doing your job investigating attempted murder, he swans up and says that the president is Satan – literal, actual Lucifer the Devil – and going to try to destroy the world. The Final Days are nigh. BUT if you join his freedom fighters, y’all can Do Something About That.

(Given recent history, I would like to point out that in this example, the president is inoffensive and has never said word one about revolution, and instead as far as you know has been doing his ineffective political best to keep shit together.)

A moment of joy~

well, what were they meant to do instead?
