@weekofobitine day 2 - Castle Kryze

Dark!Obitine AU where Obi saved Satine and the Duchess is kind of done with everyone's bullsh*t so she takes a different path😌

Don't look too closely at the background I'm still trying to learn that

WIP Wednesday - Dark!Obi-Wan

As the winner of the WIP Poll from earlier this week, I feel like I have to show SOMETHING here. While I think I'm getting close to actually writing this damn thing, there are still a few plot wrinkles I need to iron out before I can jump fully into this monster.

Anyway, I thought it would be fun to show you WHY this story is taking so long:

We're talking about a non-linear story with at least seven different character POVs.

All those notes at the bottom? That's just untangling those last five or six sticky notes.

This doesn't include the literal DOZEN documents I have for this thing already [only one of which contains actual prose]

Anyway. I promise this is going to be worth the wait. It's a wild story that has been eating at me for close to a year at this point so I'm just as excited to dig in as you are!

Why was he so hot when he was literally going insane

Double Trouble ❤️❤️

Ever since @ndekvart drew her BEAUTIFUL version of Sith Obi-Wan, I knew I had to draw it. I just had the idea to draw both of ours together and her and I both agree that they'd be absolute MENACES on the Galaxy as a team. ( (we'd also be the first to join them because we are unabashedly simps))

((Side note Anakin is quaking in his boots and has NO self preservation))

My art of Anakin

@pickleprickle found a little something for you! I think I need to write a Sith Obiwan, he needs a Sith name though, I think in a universe where Obi-wan fell to the dark side it goes one of two ways; option one: he fell after Quigons death and he killed Maul and just never returned to the Order. Option two has two possibilities: either he fell to the dark side after he killed Anakin on Mustafar and realized it was the fault of the Jedi that this happened and how corrupt they were. Possibility two is very similar in that Anakin realizes he’s attacked Padme and thinks he killed her so he turns his lightsaber on himself, Padme later lives long enough to deliver but when she’s told Anakin is dead she looses the will to live and Obi-wan is completely lost and picked up by Palpatine or maybe he kills Palpatine and he takes the name Darth Solitus, drawing from the Latin word “Solitus” meaning “alone” or “solitary” and I think it definitely reflects on the solitude and emotional detachment that characterizes Obi-wand Jedi personae. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk!

Obi-wan hums as he waits for Asajj to return from her meeting with Darth Sidious. That old fool thinks he can touch what is not his. Obi-wan will make him suffer one way or another soon. He can’t lose his cool now that his plan is going so well. They just need more information about Sidious. Unlike their dear master, Sidious actually knows how to hide his past.

Obi wan sighs and stands up from his seat and looks out the window. “Soon.” He hums. “Soon the galaxy will be mine.”

🚨New Chapter Alert 🚨

Read Chapter 5 of Criminal Minds here 😈🖤🔪

Vader HATES Obi wan because Obi wan took away Vader's full force capabilities by cleaving off his limbs.

In doing so, Obi-wan limited Vader's access to the Force (flesh is a conduit for the Force). Obi-wan essentially castrated Vader's full abilities, which in turn forever blocked him from overtaking Palpatine. "I am more powerful than the Emperor. I can overthrow him" Vader, shaky with thrill, says to Padme on Mustafar, brimming with newly birthed dark power. Welp. This turns out to be a short-lived aspiration - as per Obi wan.

Obi-wan severed Vader's limbs because, despite feeling gutted, anguished, guilty, and "unmerciful" himself--- it was the only way he could ever hope to save Anakin.

If Vader was allowed to come to full power, the ghost of the good & tormented man Anakin Skywalker would have been smothered to dust, scraping helplessly at the ceiling of Vader's power and drowned eternally within the dark. By weakening Vader's ability to harness the darkness (although his power still outmatched anyone in the galaxy) Obi-wan preserved the possibility of Anakin resurfacing.

Despite his own anger and devastation, Obi wan could not kill Anakin. And he couldn't allow Vader to either.

The man he faced was everything Obi-Wan had devoted his life to destroying. Murderer. Traitor. Fallen Jedi. Lord of the Sith. And here, now, despite it all… Obi-Wan still loved him. -Matthew Stover, Revenge of Sith novelization (canon)

In fact, he kept his word to Master Yoda. "I can't kill Anakin" he says, beside himself in Ep III. And he doesn't. He doesn't execute Anakin when he could have on the hellish shores of Mustafar, and furthermore he neuters Vader and in doing so prevents Anakin's extermination at Vader's hands, limiting Vader's power.

But, tragically, in a way, by trying to cut down Vader, Obi-wan played right into Palpatine's hands. Palpatine wanted an eternal slave, and with Obi-wan's help that's exactly what he got. But from Palp's POV it was even better - because Obi-wan, Anakin's tether to the light, swung the blade. Obi wan ensured the eternal suffering and physical agony of the man he loved more than anything in the galaxy. He, Obi-wan, massacred Anakin's body, guaranteeing his eternal suffering and physical damnation - which is in a way symbolic of how the Jedi Order had failed the Chosen One Anakin Skywalker (aka, the Galaxy). And Obi-wan knew it. The guilt destroyed him.

Like, The FREAKING GREEK TRAGEDY OF THESE TWO.

This is a huge reason Vader hates Ben/Obi wan. Obi-wan ensured his enternal enslavement to Palpatine and is the reason why a husk of Anakin Skywalker may still live inside of him. Obi-wan is the reason why Vader, however powerful, may yet fail - and Vader knows it.

And this drives Vader mad with obsession.

Because not only does he want to destroy Obi-wan, more than anything he wants to destroy Anakin Skywalker.

hollow knight - star wars crossover

cuz, light in HK is very passionate and wrathful, prone to poor choices, while 'dark' (void) is more serene/empty

but

void is still void

so… iimagine Ghost somehow ending up in SW (especially if Embrace the Void ending)

and the force usesrs sense this massive darkness

and they locate it... and just see thi lil fella

(not cornifer)

Ghost is literally:

anakin can't go bad

he's too busy gawkign at Ghost: leetle creacher ™

ghost (via mental speech): oh ya i killed the sun everyone else: ???????????

my brain is full of Ghost my beloved buggo Silly little guy!! (Gender neutral)

Same age knights AU where Obi-Wan is pretty sure Anakin is being groomed by a Sith Lord, even though they’ve been extinct for millennia and no one believes him.

He tries to warn his friend [well, they’re more frienamies but Obi-Wan’s not just going to let Skywalker fall to the dark side] but, unsurprisingly, Anakin doesn’t believe him. He calls Obi-Wan’s warning a pathetic jealous trick and “what do you know about the Sith anyway?”

Fine. Obi-Wan will learn everything there is to know about the Sith if it means he can stop this idiot from becoming an even bigger pain in the ass than he already is. He’ll learn their ways, confirm his suspicions, collect his evidence—

But there’s a problem.

The more Obi-Wan learns, the more sense it makes.

All he’d meant to do was prevent Anakin Skywalker’s fall.

He certainly hadn’t meant to trigger his own.

He should have never underestimated her.

This is a redo of a drawing I did literally hours ago cause I hated it but I LIKE THIS ONE NOW

Me ranting to my roommate about how I wanted the fic “we meet in the shadows” by one_real_imonkey to end resulted in this
