#ObiTine

[phoenixyfriend]

People who insist on shipping Obi-Wan with every Mandalorian (and clone) EXCEPT the one he canonically had romance with: I think maybe you don't respect this character you claim to love.

You're like the mom who keeps trying to set up their kid with the daughter of one of the nice ladies from church while he keeps TELLING YOU he already has a girlfriend. Strong r/justnoMIL vibes.

I mean, you don't have to love her, just respect that he actually does?

EDIT: to be clear, this is very much intertwined with the issue of refusing to respect Obi-Wan's own perspective on Satine's politics and Mandalorian culture. They bicker, yes, but respect and understanding are baked into their discussions and it's aggravating to see people write Obi-Wan dismissing her as a naive idealist who doesn't understand or respect her own people.

This post isn't really about shipping so much as the way that people's dislike of Satine results in them butchering not only her, but Obi-Wan too.

Obi-Wan. My darling. I know this is part of your personality, and you can't help it, but did you really think insulting the guy who already hates your guts and who is currently HOLDING YOUR GIRLFRIEND HOSTAGE was a good idea?

I mean, I would never engage in victim blaming, but I did foresee the outcome of this conversation.

If Obi-Wan had actually stayed on Mandalore with Satine after the Civil War and left the Jedi Order, it would've made The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones peak comedy.

Like, Qui-Gon would still be sent to Naboo and end up on Tatooine, he'd still meet Anakin and take him back to the Temple. But, in this AU, he survives the battle on Theed and takes Anakin as his padawan. And the entire Order would be making jokes:

"Congrats on the new padawan! Hope he sticks around longer than the last one!" "We'll keep this one off the bodyguard missions, eh Qui-Gon?"

So one day little Anakin’s like "hey master, what happened to your last padawan?" And Qui-Gon's like "oh he ran off with a girl, yeah he's royalty in the Outer Rim now".

And it's all fine and dandy until Anakin’s nineteen and they get assigned to protect Padmé, and Qui-Gon takes one look at this kid's face and thinks "You've got to be fucking kidding me, this shit again??"

I saw your 18th-century Padmé art and I love it!

Also I was wondering, how do you think my girl Satine (RIP) would look in something similar?

anon I love you so much, Satine is PERFECT for a period drama

(commission info // tip jar!)

This is what happened, right?

Additionally (because obi-wan is just too babygirl for only one person in the entire galaxy to call him such), some alternate options:

The beautiful bride and the ugly groom

[ninjadeathblade]

Obi-Wan in The Phantom Menace: Serious padawan, in love with Jedi code, no other romance for him, super cautious

Obi-Wan in the rest of the prequels: Thirty and flirty, you only live once, gets shipped with everyone

Obi-Wan and Satine were made to dance to Hozier

Approximately 300 frames, many many tears, and 60 hours of my life later; I finally have the finished product. This Obitine animatic has been a dream project of mine and I’m so glad it’s finally done and I can share it with you all.

Of course Ahsoka has the receipts for the council

Unrestrained* summer fun

* actually somewhat restrained, really

[peppermintquartz]

one of my posts is very popular with shippers and i keep seeing the tag #obitine

and since i don't know much about Star Wars beyond the movies i thought "that's an alarming number of people shipping obi wan and palpatine" (alarming as in more than i expected, not that i'm against it)

TODAY i learned that the 'tine' refers to a female character called Satine

[now-you-sound-like-a-jedi]

When it comes to Anakin and Padmé, Obi-Wan is deliberately looking in the complete opposite direction whistling to himself nonchalantly like he has no clue what's happening.

When it comes to Obi-Wan and Satine, Anakin is peeking around from behind a corner giggling like a youngling.

it's what she would've wanted
