ok but like imagine the maul jedi au and he still has the same intense/killing actions, like they need to find some information and he just says “can’t we just stab them until they tell us?” and everyone is like. “maul no!” and he gets annoyed everytime.
ya’ll know that seen when anakin legit just straight up kills tal merrik? that’s maul is almost every same situation, sometimes jedi manage to stop him and he let’s out a dramatic annoyed sigh “stop ruining my fun.” or “he’s an asshole let me kill him!”
anakin is the only one who seems to agree with his methods but does back out if he see’s things going to far, it’s what makes them have a love-hate friendship. but maul wants someone who agrees with everything he does and thinks as he will finally have someone who understands him and is the same as him.
so imagine his surprise when a togruta of 14 years old, the padwan of anakin, says while they suggest on how to get information once again - “can’t we just stab him until he tells us?”
maul’s eyes lit up. that’s the one he thinks, that’s my new best friend.
and from then on maul and ahsoka got on splendidly while the rest of the jedi watch on in shock and are wondering how the hell they’re going to stop them. meanwhile anakin is split because yay ahsoka is making friends but worried because it’s fucking maul.
maul and ahsoka spend so much time together that people often mistake her for HIS padawan and anakin gets so angry, like “no she’s mine!” but maul goes along with it which angers anakin even more.
