@kana7o never ceases to amaze me. Seriously. I give her my ideas and requests, and she delivers them perfectly. This art combined multiple ideas I've had for a while --

The Not-So-Secret Garden AU -- Obi-Wan comes to live with his grandfather, Lord Dooku, after his father, Qui-Gon, passes away, and he meets the head cook's son, Anakin, and their friendship blooms in Qui-Gon's garden. This fulfils The Secret Garden (the 1993 film is the inspiration, btw, one of my all-time favourite film!) and Obikin as children/same-age ideas!

Maurice AU -- This film and book gave us Maurice and Scudder, and the adult Obikin in this art was heavily influenced by them. I've also been wanting an Edwardian Obikin, so this all turned out fabulously! I almost wanted to add a third element (the WWI element where Obi-Wan is an officer and Anakin is his batman), but I wanted to keep this piece happy and romantic, so that idea may be something in the future.

But that bit aside, this art really killed several ideas with one stone, so I am very pleased! Kana also gave me a variation, one that gives it an old-timey feeling, and it's so gorgeous!

And finally, here are the boys all zoomed in! Obi-Wan again has a pocketwatch! And Anakin wears that hat super well! Hope you all enjoy this piece!

A couple of weeks ago, I had this idea of veteran head flight attendant Obi-Wan meeting up with Anakin, the newest pilot of Jedi Airlines. Why this idea did not come to me sooner is beyond me since it works out perfectly! Obi-Wan has the charisma (and the sexy voice) to be an excellent flight attendant. And Anakin, of course, with his canon love for flying, would be perfect as a pilot. This idea wouldn't leave my head, so I had to request the always wonderful @kana7o to draw them, and it came out absolutely fantastic!

More ideas for this AU have Anakin falling in love with Obi-Wan at first sight, but Obi-Wan thinks Anakin is too damn cocky but will not deny the younger pilot's handsome looks. The CEO of the airline notices that when the two work together, they bring in rave reviews from their customers, so the two become the Team, much to Anakin's delight and Obi-Wan's displeasure.

But eventually, Obi-Wan returns Anakin's affection, and the two become a couple. And yes, they join the Mile High Club, ahaha! Anakin is super proud of that accomplishment, ahaha!

I don't know if anyone has talked about this, but lately this has been happening in other fandoms too. There'll be these bot accounts that straight up steals people's posts and adds "expand" "read more" "continue" as a link in the end of the post - DON'T CLICK ON THAT, it's most likely a malware or something of the like.

so if you see a post like this: no profile picture, something that looks reposted (I've seen this happening to artists too) and a link at the end, even if the post has tags, that's a bot. Block and report it.

Several weeks ago, I was hit with this Piratekin and Merwan Obikin idea. The idea wouldn't leave me alone, so I reached out to @kana7o to bring my visions to life, and she did an amazing job!

The first art shows their first meeting, where Captain Anakin Seawalker takes over Palpatine's ship (and makes him walk the plank to feed him to gigantic piranhas) and meets a captive merman prince -- Prince Obi-Wan of Stewjon Kingdom. They fall in love at first sight. Anakin reluctantly frees him, but to his delight, Obi-Wan stays near his side.

The second art showcases them adventuring the Seven Seas. I seriously could not get rid of the cheesy Harlequin romance novel cover out of my head, so I also requested Kana to draw this. Needless to say, I'm very happy by this piece.
