#The Phantom Menace

[gil-estel]

he’s getting flashbacks

[twinterrors29]

when Qui-Gon publicly dropped Obi-Wan like a hot potato in favor of throwing his full weight into his bid to train Anakin, recently-Knighted Quinlan Vos decided that he had the opportunity to be the funniest motherfucker imaginable (and earn both his friend's eternal debt and ire in one move):

he claimed Obi-Wan Kenobi as his first Padawan

Obi-Wan, while definitely pissed with his friend's 'parenting,' quickly gets behind the idea of using this to spite Qui-Gon as much as possible

the Vos-Kenobi pair immediately set out to break every single one of Jinn's records as pettily as possible, and even managed to earn Quinlan the title of 'youngest Master' when Obi-Wan was Knighted only a few months later when the Council realized what was going on and tried to cut them off by just Knighting Kenobi already

Some of you are too afraid to admit this but we all know Star Wars works best when it goes full soap opera

Obi-Wan and Anakin for @ladysarai! And then nothing bad ever happened...

[Image Description: Digital artwork of a young Obi-Wan Kenobi and child Anakin. Anakin is in padawan robes, while Obi-Wan's hair has started to grow out and he has his beard. Obi-Wan is kneeling with his arms around Anakin, who has just run forward to fling his arms around Obi-Wan's neck in a hug. /end ID]

i’m having a maul moment

Jedi neutrality in TPM comes not at all from not taking sides. They get there and pick a side in under five minutes. They are 100% team Naboo. No, their neutrality, and their cultural moral authority, comes from not having a stake in this fight. They're not mixed up in the trade federation. They don't have personal ties with the Naboo. They don't stand to benefit or to lose from the success of either party. They can just show up and say, hey, just decided you guys suck. And no one can accuse them of being secretly married to the Naboo queen or having offshore investments in the Lake country, or whatever completely hypothetical thing a person might have going on that would hypothetically compromise that neutrality
