obi-wan: anakin, could you please do me a favor? anakin, intently: i would cover up a murder you committed, plant my dna at the crime scene, and take the blame for you. obi-wan: oh. thank you? i'd never ask you to do that, though- anakin: but i would. in a heartbeat. obi-wan: ...alright then. i mean, i just need you to open the door for cody- anakin: no.

SW Suddenly-Omegaverse AU: Surrogacy, Worldbuilding, Obi-Mom
Truly the main irony of all this is that everyone considers Obi-Wan the Better Omega but Anakin is the one who's actually 👀👀👀 about pregnancy
Obi-Wan: I have the deepest respect for those who do it, but the idea of growing another person inside of me is weird and gross, no, thank you.
Meanwhile Anakin is like. Immediate baby fever. Someone actually approaches him like "hey... there are forms you can fill out to request an exception for pregnancy, and like... regulations" because he's that obvious about it.
I assume that if they've got safety nets for accidental pregnancies, then they're probably aware that there are people who want to do it on purpose? I feel like in an omegaverse where 'biological imperative to procreate' can be so much more intense, then maybe there's old precedent that stuck around even after suppressants got most of those hormones under better control.
Bit torn. Just know I want Anakin to Make Baby.
"Anakin, what are you--" "Do you think offering to be someone's surrogate would be acceptable to the council as a way to be pregnant without getting attached." "...what." "They'd probably accept that as a way to practice not getting attached, right?" "N...no, that's not... what?"
Anakin approaching Bail and Breha and being like “Do you... still want a kid? I would provide a kid. Do you want one here*?”
* in this dimension
Great way to give up the baby as a parent because he'd still be able to see them once in a while but also like... it's not HIS kid, technically. He can be a cool uncle who happened to give birth, which is distant enough to not be 'attached,' but close enough that his Tatooine-raised 'must ensure family is safe whenever possible' background doesn't flip out. It helps that 'Core World Royalty' is like... a top-tier family to be raised in.
(It would have to be post-war because he probably shouldn’t be risking his life while very pregnant. He needs to be reminded of that sometimes.)
Bail/Breha is an alpha/alpha relationship and while a pregnancy is still possible,* it’s a whole lot more difficult, and that's on top of Breha's canon medical issues that resulted in her heart and lungs getting replaced.
* AFAB alphas can get pregnant, and AMAB omegas can inseminate, but the success rate on that angle is much lower than the 'traditional' alpha/omega roles, as is any attempt at reproduction outside rut/heat. They're low-fertility overall for the non-dominant aspect of their reproductive system, which... ha, Anakin and Obi-Wan try to get explanations for why the senary system works the way it does, but it's a very longform history lesson that comes down to 'idk this got cemented so long ago that nobody really knows why anymore.'
AKA "why do you title these roles male omega and female alpha instead of intersex omega and intersex alpha since both parties have both genitals."
ANYWAY
Anakin: I want to make babies. But I don't want to get kicked out of the order. But I don't want to give up my own babies for adoption. But I can't keep my own babies if I want to stay a Jedi. So basically I want to have someone else's babies? Anakin: ...wait shit that's just surrogacy.
Anakin, calling up Obi-Wan: Hey are the Organas still struggling to have a kid? Obi-Wan: ...not really your business. Anakin: You're friends with Bail again though, right? Obi-Wan: I am, but-- Anakin: Do you think they'd want me to be a surrogate? Obi-Wan: What.
I can't decide if it's funnier for the Order to be like "I mean... technically there's no rules against this?" or if this is a precedent set by at least three omegas every generation because that's just how a/b/o manifested for omegas in a biological and cultural sense.
Bail: Wait, your former apprentice is... volunteering... to be our surrogate. Obi-Wan, exhausted: Yes. Bail: He barely knows us. Obi-Wan: He respects you and you're the closest people he knows that want a child and would be good parents. Bail: And he's just... volunteering? Obi-Wan: Yes. Also, you did say your primary worry was that a surrogate might be targeted for assassination and you couldn't ask someone to risk that, right? Anakin is very much able to avoid assassins, and would be staying primarily in the Temple anyway. Very safe, and not particularly scared of assassins in the first place. Bail: Your words say you approve, but your tone says otherwise. Obi-Wan: Anakin considers me his father. I'm not old enough to be a grandparent. Bail: Ah.
Anakin is a surrogate and enjoys it and everything is fine and then like a year later he's accidentally pregnant with his own and Rex's kid, and nobody knows how to ask if it's actually an accident.
A suggestion from @gelpenss:
OH MAN i.... have to drive home. But I just had a thought about like. I always want to poke at Betas in A/B/O like are they “normal” or different from our standard or.... but ANYWAY assuming they have a pheromonal thing I just think it would be neat if betas had the ability to be the Bucket of Cold Water. Like if caught early enough, and with the caveat it’s not permanent, a beta could arrest a rut or heat in its tracks until a more ideal time. Like. They aren’t birth control. But they are the remind me later button.
Okay done driving I am Returned to bring up why I brought up betas and it’s this: well okay 1. It plays nice with a popular but inaccurate dog breeding urban legend that female dogs will like, delay heat cycles? so that the bitches above them in pack hierarchy have first choice of mate selection. And I think in omegaverse it would be cool if that was a Bio Fact, and also historically enforced by the third designation. 2. It gives me an excuse to have betas have the Most Sensitive sense of smell because it’s their “job” to pick up on things before they go too far to be put on pause. 3. I’m just thinkin ‘bout a beta clone [...] just hovering around Obi-Wan because they found out how much stress his heat cycle causes and they’re like “okay cool I will help make sure it does Not”
I want to like a/b/o verses but betas niggle at me. I want to give them a hat and a Function that woulda helped before modern medicine.
I'm not sure how I feel about betas being able to delay heats, but I do like the idea of them having a more sensitive sense of pheromone smell than most. Most aliens assume it's omegas with the best sense of smell, and betas with the worst, but it's more complicated than that because they all specialize: Alphas are actually less attuned to pheromone smells, but more attuned to things that were useful back when humans were still a hunter-gatherer species. Omegas tend to be heightened towards danger smells like fire or aggression, and pheromones relating to children/care. Betas, as suggested above, are very sensitive to pheromone changes relating to mood and behavior of the community around them.
I like the idea that betas were historically the ones that ended up taking care children, unmated omegas, and so on during people's heats and ruts, because they kept their heads about themselves long enough to do things like cook and clean while someone was reeking of hormones. The checks and balances work out that betas may have lower fertility, but it makes them better able to support the network around them.
It works in with humanity's general collective history of thriving the most when working as a community.
Given that I decided that this is Jangobi, the clones might all subconsciously view Obi-Wan as Mom. Not intentionally, but, you know... Obi-Wan the not-evil stepmother. He doesn't know how he got into this situation, but he sure is here, and he sure as hell doesn't know how to get out.
Obi-Wan "I don't need to get pregnant, I have three million stepchildren" Kenobi
I definitely love "clones all want to make Obi-Wan's heats less stressful" but like in a different way from Whatever The Fuck Anakin's Got Going On.
Obi-Wan using the force to dull the pain in a Shiny's broken leg while the medic works on it and the Shiny just mumbles "Thanks mom" and everyone gets very embarrassed and pretends it didn't happen.
But then it happens again. And again.
Obi-Wan asks for an explanation from Cody and gets a halting response that, since Jango is technically their father, and his scent has been all over Obi-Wan recently... and Obi-Wan puts in a lot of effort to take care of them all.......
Anakin overhears the clones calling Obi-Wan "mom" and just. The most judgmental eyebrow raise.... Mostly in the sense of "You never let me call you dad" "Thought you said you weren't anyone's parent." "Hey, hey, Obi-Wan. What the fuck."
BOBA. BOBA ABSOLUTELY CALLS OBI-WAN MOM WHENEVER POSSIBLE. IT'S DEEPLY FRUSTRATING.
Obi-Wan eventually manages to admit that he's uncomfortable with it at minimum because of the gendering the word has for him, can they at least use the neutral 'buir' instead?
Word spreads like fire, takes like two days max for everyone to switch.
(Anakin demands cuddles as compensation for not getting to call Obi-Wan any true parental term for years.)

I think this is the 9th round of Star Wars Shitposty Headcanons, so here yall go!
-The Clones have swimming lessons as a standard part of their training, and when on worlds with safe waters would often teach their General’s Padawan’s to make sure they knew how to swim, or at least kept up with the skills Master Fisto taught them when they were small.
-Zeb would take the younger ghost crew members fishing outside Chopper Base when they needed to calm down.
-Eli Vanto says “fight me” at every minor inconvenience. Thrawn has had to fight loads of people because of this.
-70% of Anxiety experienced by Thrawn is because of Eli “you’ve yeed your last haw” Vanto’s need to fight everything. The Grand Admiral doesn’t fear much, but the small one scares a him.
-This is doubled when Ezra and Eli team up for short angry human boy shenanigans.
-Jedi play strip Sabaac when drunk. No one knows what Obi-Wan looks like beneath his robes. Everyone is uncomfortably aware of what Yoda looks like.
-Poe Dameron can’t do a proper handstand, Finn and Rey can and refuse to stop rubbing that fact in.
-Zeb and Gregor had loads of BBQs because after the Big Bongo incident they were good friends.
-Dex’s diner was one of the few restaurants on Coruscant that actually allowed Clones to eat there, so it became a frequent spot for off duty soldiers to go get burgers with batchmates in other battalions.
-Kallus wears fluffy socks in his boots because no one can see them and they’re warm and comfy. After he leaves the Empire and they repurpose his quarters, Thrawn steals them all. Eli has had socks for life day about 3 years in a row now. Zeb replaced the socks after Kallus started to steal everyone’s socks.
-Maul sits like a whore cos it’s one of the few positions that is comfortable with robot legs. It also makes him feel a bit more normal because he always sat like that when he had normal legs.
-Anakin and Ahsoka once told Obi-Wan that the easiest way to beat Grievous would be to spray him with salt water and watch him rust. He will never tell them that he tried it and it was successful. Ventress was howling with laughter in the background to the point that she was almost captured by Cody.
-Cody boxes. When he’s stressed, his go to is to just beat the shit out of a punching bag. Clone MMA is a pretty common activity on base, but literally no one is willing to fight Commander “I punch droids on a regular basis” Cody except for Obi-Wan. And even the Jedi only agreed once. The only person who has willingly fought Cody more than once is Anakin and even that was a tie. Alpha-17 wouldn’t even try it with Cody on a bad day.
-The Wolfpack are jealous that the 212th get to punch droids so they try it. But Plo catches them and scolds them for a solid hour about reckless behavior that could injure them being inappropriate for the battlefield. They did not try it again.
-Ahsoka makes the best sandwiches in the GAR by claiming that she made her own lunch. Anakin actually used to make them so she’d never be hungry on a mission after finding out Togruta’s need meat and panicking that he wasn’t caring for her properly. She is yet to be called out on it.
-Cal Kestis met Zeb once and the Lasat gave him a hug and said he was sorry for what happened to his master. As a part of the honor guard, Zeb had known Jaro Tapal, and Kanan had told him of his padawan friend who became his apprentice. The hug meant more to both of them than they could ever admit.
Thats all I’ve got! I have a couple of other things that i might do that are pure self indulgence - like characters as specific band songs (think ABBA, Bon Jovi type variety) and what teams they would support in a bunch of sports. Favourite shows and stuff like that. Idk tho? If you have any ideas they’re always welcome lmao. Have a good day lads!
