Rating: Mature (graphic depictions of violence)

Characters: Obi-Wan Kenobi/Cody, Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano

Much whump. Much tragedy. Slow-burn CodyWan.

Summary:

General Obi-Wan Kenobi, notorious for being the model of wartime professionalism, makes a terrible fatal mistake. For the first time in his adult life he finds himself having to lean on those around him as he journeys through inconsolable grief and crushing guilt back to the light.

Excerpt: (TW: death of an Umbaran child)

It all had happened with such a swiftness that Cody hadn’t spun fully around before the threat was neutralized, but when he did, the sight before him was amongst the worst he had ever been privy to.

On the ground, at Kenobi’s feet, were the two pieces of another young Umbaran child. General Kenobi stood, two hands gripping his still ignited lightsaber in an offensive stance, staring down at the corpse with an expression Cody already wished he’d never seen. The blue blade hissed back into its hilt as Kenobi dropped weakly to his knees and gently picked up the torso of the child he had just slain.

“No…”

Hi!  I completely agree with you that Obi-Wan Kenobi is the best Star Wars character and that he deserved a nap, a vacation, and a cuddle with the dumbass Chosen One former apprentice of his choice.  Preferably with Anakin snuggled up against his side while they nap in a sunbeam on an island vacation, including Anakin doing cute little kitten yawns and stretches! I’m so glad you asked for some of my favorite Obi-Wan moments, even if it’s really hard to choose!  THERE ARE JUST SO MANY??? BUT SOME FAVORITES:

SOBS, HE WAS SO PROUD OF ANAKIN.  NO MATTER HOW MUCH ANAKIN STUMBLED NOW AND AGAIN, OBI-WAN ALWAYS BELIEVED HE WOULD GET BACK UP, HE WOULD FIND HIS WAY AGAIN. The warmth he so easily gives Anakin in this scene, even when telling him to be patient, is wonderful, you can just see it written all over his face, how much Obi-Wan loves him, and how much he really does have faith in Anakin. That’s why this moment is so great as well:

“He will not let me down.  He never has.” Think about all the shit Anakin has done, all the times he’s stumbled, all the times he’s gotten way too up in his head or refused to talk when Obi-Wan approached him!  Think about all the times he’s stabbed someone to death that he could have taken more time with.  Think about all the times Anakin has snapped and snarled. And put it together with, “He will not let me down.  He never has.”  Because Obi-Wan has never expected Anakin to be perfect, only that he keep trying, genuinely and truly.  And Obi-Wan believes that Anakin can overcome all the difficult things he faces. HE LOVES ANAKIN SO MUCH. BUT ALSO, OBI-WAN KENOBI FOR SHIT LIKE THIS:

HE JUST FUCKING FLINGS HIMSELF AT GRIEVOUS, SMILING LIKE A MOTHERFUCKER, AND THE THING IS HE WILL FUCK THEIR SHIT UP. HE DOES:

LOOK AT THAT SHIT, SO CASUALLY CUTTING THE MAGNA GUARD’S HEAD OFF, NOT EVEN GIVING A SHIT THAT IT PICKED UP THE ELECTROSTAFF. OR SHIT LIKE THIS:

JESUS CHRIST, KENOBI, DIAL IT BACK DOWN, MY THIRST IS GETTING TO BE KIND OF EMBARRASSING EVEN FOR ME. OH HEY ALSO REMEMBER THAT TIME HE DEFLECTED A GODDAMNED MISSILE AND LOOKED THE MOST BADASS THAT HAD EVER BADASSSED? BECAUSE I DO.

OH NO HE’S TOO HOT. JUST TAKE ME NOW, GENERAL KENOBI.  MY BODY IS READY. P.S. THIS WAS PRETTY FUCKING COOL:

LIKE, THIS IS BEFORE THE WAR STARTED AND OBI-WAN’S OUT THERE DEFLECTING LIGHTNING ALREADY?  LIKE IT’S NO BIG DEAL? HOLY CRAP, WHAT A ROCK STAR. ALSO, ONE OF THE GREATEST MOMENTS THAT HAS EVER BEEN:

LOL GOD IT NEVER STOPS BEING FUNNY.  JUST FLINGING HIMSELF OUT THE WINDOW AND HITCHING A RIDE ON A TINY DROID. YEAH, OKAY, HE PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BEEN JUST FINE WITHOUT IT, JEDI CAN USE THE FORCE TO SLOW THEIR DESCENT. BUT HANGING ON TO THAT DROID--LITERALLY HANGING ONTO IT--TO KEEP TRACK OF IT, GOING ACROSS THE CITY?  THEN HAVING THE GALL TO LECTURE ANAKIN ABOUT JUMPING OUT OF SPEEDERS? *CHEF’S KISS*  OBI-WAN KENOBI IS THE BEST. And yet that’s not all!  He’s genuinely caring and compassionate! He notices that Anakin doesn’t look well (despite that he looks perfectly fine, so Obi-Wan was clearly paying close attention to him) and asks Anakin how he’s doing with such concern on his face:

That is the face of someone who cares about Anakin so much and UGH GOD OBI-WAN KENOBI DESERVED A BETTER GALAXY TO BE IN. HIS FACE IS SUCH A GOOD FACE:

EVERY MICRO EXPRESSION IS A GODDAMNED TREASURE. BUT TOTALLY AND TRULY MY FAVORITE MOMENT IS FROM ROTS, WHEN THEY CRASH ONTO THE INVISIBLE HAND. IT’S PEAK FUCKING STAR WARS.

HE JUST LITERALLY FLIES OUT OF HIS STARFIGHTER BEFORE IT’S EVEN COME TO A STOP, LAUNCHING HIMSELF ACROSS THE HANGAR, ROLLING INTO A MOVE THAT HAS HIM SLICING RIGHT THROUGH THE DROIDS. IT IS THE MOST BADASS THING AND THE MOST HILARIOUS THING. IT’S SO GODDAMNED EXTRA WHILE ALSO BEING SO COOL. ALL THE COOLER LITERALLY AT THE SAME TIME, THIS IS ANAKIN SKYWALKER:
