he looks like he's doing an evil jedi mind trick like 'you want to bring me a fresh coffee' lmaooo

“And how do you plan to deal with this delay, Lord Vader?”

tbh I really don’t know how to headcanon obi-wan’s position in the empire if he was a sith. He would have more power over Vader (not necessarily by rank), that’s for sure.

#hm i feel like if Obi-Wan flipped darkside then Anakin's daddy issues would keep him on the lightside?#here's how i'd write it:#Sidious turns Obi-Wan instead of Dooku after the death of Darth Maul #Instead of Darth Tyranus we get Darth Patriotus or some shit idk #accumulating power and influence as Grand Marshal Kenobi and eventually being appointed supreme commander of the Republic (Clone) Army #in much the same way Sidious seized power and influence as Palpatine #After the Clone Wars the transition from Republic to Empire is so subtle and order-66 is so abrupt and well-executed #that the rest of the galaxy simply assumes the Jedi returned to seclusion following their triumph in the Clone Wars #however when the time comes to carry out the order Kenobi himself absconds to confront Anakin #hoping to turn him to the darkside so they can overthrow Sidious together #Anakin refuses because daddy issues obviously #just before Anakin can prevail in their epic duel Kenobi reveals he has abducted Padme... and the twins #Anakin briefly succumbs to the darkside and in his rage grievously wounds Kenobi severing both of his hands #but Anakin comes to his senses before dealing the killing blow when he senses Padme in orbit aboard Kenobi's personal cruiser #realizing he can reach the cruiser by stealing Kenobi's shuttle Anakin simply leaves Kenobi planetside intent on mounting a daring rescue #but as Anakin approaches the cruiser he is overwhelmed by a sense of dread and anxiety #another shuttlecraft launches from the cruiser's docking bay followed by a hail a blaster fire #knowing Padme is aboard the rogue shuttle Anakin rushes to shield her craft from incoming fire with his own buying her enough time to escap #then with a flourish he disables the cruiser's propulsion systems and follows her course into hyperspace #thus begins a decades long game of cat-and-mouse as Anakin and Padme raise the twins while hiding from the ISB/sith #concluding with a fateful final duel in which Kenobi vanquishes Anakin as Luke and Leia escape with the Death Star plans
