Dooku: I would like to once more, ask to babysit the feral one this weekend.

Qui-Gon: I already gave you Xanatos to keep him from biting the new baby, idk what you want.

Dooku: See. When I asked. For the feral one. I meant the new baby. Xanatos is to big for lap cuddles and doesn’t let me tuck him in at night. No fun.

Qui-Gon: …are you implying that Obi-Wan, my sweet baby boy Obi-Wan, who likes soft forehead kisses and still sleeps on his tummy with his bottom up, is, the feral one???

Dooku: *who has seen the child seize and start talking about wars past, who saw him bite Xanatos almost taking a chunk out of his arm last year, who has found the little one hiding under a caff table and growling while trying to hunt people that pass by, whose become fluent in Grunt because Obi-Wan needs to growl sometimes* …yeah he’s a lil bit feral, you know.

Qui-Gon: *whose babiest of baby’s can do no harm* …hmm… yeah I guess I can see it. You want Grandmaster time this weekend? What for?

Dooku: *it’s for the exorcism probably but he’s not telling Qui that* I wanna take him to the park.

Qui-Gon: Oh that sounds lovely, have fun!

[padawansuggest]

😭😭😭 no one appreciates the baby in this household he’s being so nice saying hello when Dooku comes in instead of waiting till the man is 90% asleep wtf do you want from him

Vague Obi-Wan lore from Bloodshed, Crimson Clover shitpost:

-----

Obi-Wan, eyes glowing, in an empty room: *talking in some ancient language no one can understand*

Some Random Jedi: ...is that not...concerning?

Qui-Gon: Last night I caught him floating on the ceiling and chanting ritualistically. When I asked what he was doing he told me that Master Katri was teaching him an old Je'daii mantra...so I consider this an improvement.

Some Random Jedi: ...isn't she dead?

Qui-Gon: Yes, which is why I will not be asking again.

BONUS:

Dooku, who literally just wants to eat and go to bed: *walks into his Temple quarters*

Obi-Wan:

Dooku, backing out the door: Nope...nope...not tonight...I'll room with Qui-Gon...just...hell no...

The real reason he was so ready to stab Obi-Wan in AotC

Anti-Christ!Anakin modern au with priest!Obi-Wan (sequel here)

-

The night had been loud. Winds howling like the earth itself was in distress. A woman about to give birth comes to the church for help in the middle of the night. She bangs on the door yelling like the devil himself is on her heels. Qui-Gon answers.

15 minutes later Obi-Wan is awoken from his bed. Qui-Gon ushers him out the door as he fills him in on the situation.

“Shouldn't we drive her to a hospital??”

“No! There's no time!” He takes Obi-Wan aside. “There are forces at play here Obi-Wan. The devil is inside her. We must proceed with caution.”

“What do you mean –?”

The woman, Shmi, screams in pain. They rush inside the room where she's being kept.

The birth is a terrible one. She dies in agony. There was nothing either of them could do for her. Qui-Gon prays for her soul over her body.

The babe isn't crying. Qui-Gon cradles it in his arms. “It's dead.” He says, clearly relieved.

Obi-Wan doesn't understand. Qui-Gon is not a cruel man. He would never rejoice over such a tragedy.

Qui-Gon lays the babe upon its mother's chest. She'd called him Anakin with her dying breath.

“I'll call the coroner.” Qui-Gon presses a bloodied hand upon Obi-Wan's shoulder. “You did good.”

He leaves. Obi-Wan should go to. He should wash up and try to go back to sleep. Though he doubts he'll be able to after such a harrowing event. But he can't stop staring at the dead child.

He approaches it. Not it. Him. Qui-Gon had said she had the devil in her. He thought he was speaking metaphorically. Qui-Gon loved his riddles.

Something compels him to pick the child up. He rests Anakin in his arms. Sorrow fills him. How cruel the world was. The poor thing hadn't even gotten to take its first breath. At least both mother and babe were reunited in death.

He kisses Anakin's forehead.

The little chest moves. And then a shrill cry hits the air.

Obi-Wan pulls back in shock. The baby was crying. Loud and demanding.

Qui-Gon rushes back into the room. He stares at the baby and Obi-Wan. His face is deathly pale.

-

Obi-Wan has never believed Qui-Gon when he's said Anakin was the son of the devil. That he had no earthly father and was conceived in a dream. It was just Qui-Gon being Qui-Gon.

Anakin was a greedy child. Always screaming for food or attention or cranky from his nap. He only calmed down when Obi-Wan held him. Demanding his eternal attention and always clinging to his robes.

As he got older, the boy had no friends to speak of. He did not interact with other children his age. He didn't do social cues well either. He unnerved people. His eyes were too unworldly with their yellow tint. His gaze was too piercing.

Obi-Wan would find dead mice and birds under his bed picked open and dissected. He hides them from Qui-Gon. The man meant well, but being called the antichrist to your face had to be damaging to a child's psyche.

Qui-Gon often read bible passages to Anakin. Teaching him lessons of goodness and humanity. Anakin liked to listen to him read despite everything. He held many conversations with Qui-Gon on the nature of man. Obi-Wan was not privy to these conversations but he was glad that Anakin responded. It was odd for one so young to be so philosophical, but it was a better pastime than the dead animals.

Aside from Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan is the only adult Anakin likes to interact with. None of the others like to be around him nor Anakin them. It never gets better. He never warms up to anyone.

Odd things start to happen. Doors open, pictures move, chairs slide across the floor. Obi-Wan pays it no mind. Probably just the wind.

He got into trouble constantly. Getting angry with Anakin never worked. You could not chastise him or lecture him. He always fought fire with fire. It only fueled him. That's why all punishments were given to Obi-Wan to deal with. He would calmly explain why what he did was wrong and that he shouldn't do it again. For the times that Anakin understood exactly what it was he'd done, Obi-Wan would skip the explanation and assign him chores. Anakin hated chores. But Obi-Wan did them with him, making sure Anakin was actually doing what he was told and also to provide small talk.

He's disturbingly nonchalant about other people's feelings. He didn't care if they were in pain physically or emotionally. Except of course, if it was Obi-Wan. He would lay his head on his shoulder and hug him if he noticed Obi-Wan was feeling down. And if he got so much as a papercut Anakin would bandage him up with kisses for his boo-boos. It was rather darling and Obi-Wan thought it cute the way he was fussed over.

When Anakin hits 14, Qui-Gon slips down the stairs and breaks his neck. The others whisper that it was Anakin's fault. Obi-Wan decides it's time to leave the convent and the church altogether. He should have done it years ago. Perhaps public school would be better for Anakin.

It's not. The students and teachers are all unnerved just the same. But nevertheless he is away from the nasty whispers and rumors that he was a murderer.

They get a small two bedroom apartment and Obi-Wan gets a job at a daycare. It works well enough.

A girl comes over one day to do homework with Anakin. Obi-Wan is overjoyed. Finally Anakin was socializing.

The girl attempts many conversations but Anakin shuts down all of them. They get their homework done and she leaves within an hour.

“She was nice.” Obi-Wan says.

“She was boring.” Anakin replies.

-

Obi-Wan is talking to a coworker at the daycare. She'd come over to make friendly conversation. He's thinking about asking her out. It's been so long. He pledged himself to the church as a boy and doesn't have any sexual experience beyond kissing and a handjob to speak of.

They have coffee after work several times before he invites her back to his place. It was all very innocent. He planned on taking this slow.

The door opens. Anakin is home. Obi-Wan greets him warmly. Anakin just glares silently at Satine. He stomps down the hall to his room.

“I don't think he likes me.”

“That's just his face.” Obi-Wan assures her.

A glass in the kitchen shatters, startling him. Satine cuts her hand. Obi-Wan wraps it up with a bandage. Satine thanks him warmly.

After Satine leaves Obi-Wan goes to talk to Anakin.

“Anakin? Is everything alright?”

Anakin basically had two moods. Annoyed and grumpy. Today he was both.

“Don't invite that woman over again.”

“Excuse me?”

“She's not welcome here.”

“She is my friend.”

“Don't let her in this house!” Anakin yells.

His eyes seem to glow. The very walls rattle. Obi-Wan takes a step back. His fear spiking. Everyone was unnerved by Anakin. Some were outright afraid. Obi-Wan has never been afraid of him. But now his heart is pounding. His skin is screaming to get away. Something is very wrong.

Obi-Wan pushes past it with great difficulty. With trembling hands he takes the teens face in his hands. He will not cower. Not from the boy he raised.

“Please use your words, dear heart. I can't understand if you don't tell me.”

The walls stop shaking. Anakin's snarl turns into a pout.

“I didn't like the way you were looking at her.”

“Darling it's natural to have friends.”

“You want to be more than friends with her.”

Obi-Wan sighs. So that was it. “No one will ever take me away from you. I love you first. Always.”

Anakin grips back so hard Obi-Wan knows he will bruise later. But he doesn't pull away.

“I love you too.” Anakin says. It feels like a leash.

-

The nightmares start around Anakin's 16th birthday.

He'll wake up screaming. Moaning in pain. He refuses to tell Obi-Wan what it is that frightens him so. Obi-Wan is terrified for him. He takes him to see doctors. Anakin hates them all. Medication doesn't help.

Anakin asks to sleep in his room. Obi-Wan relents because after weeks of trying he's at the end of his rope. Somehow it works. Anakin calms down.

Except Anakin doesn't go back to his room. Obi-Wan cannot seem to make him. So much for dating. Can't very well invite anyone over with Anakin occupying the bed.

Anakin starts having other dreams. Wet dreams. Obi-Wan starts sleeping on the couch.

He has a nightmare one night. Anakin is gone. Taken from him. The dreams shifts and he suddenly he finds him again. He is relieved in that moment. He hugs Anakin tightly against his chest. Anakin is touching him. So many hands. So many teeth.

Obi-Wan realizes with a sort of haze that he is hard. Anakin strokes him to fullness. They kiss with teeth and blood. Obi-Wan jolts awake.

Oh god.

-

The nightmares begin again and Anakin demands his presence in their bedroom.

“Don’t leave me.” It is said partly in fear, partly in stubbornness.

Anakin needed him. Obi-Wan comes back to bed against his better judgment. He shouldn't. But Anakin needed him. And the nightmares had stopped before hadn't they? Surely he could put up with a little teenage hormones.

As predicted, sometimes Obi-Wan will wake with an erection pressing against him. The teen would reach for him at night while half asleep. Obi-Wan felt dirty. Disgusting. Anakin wanted comfort but Obi-Wan could not provide even that.

-

It was his 18th birthday. The day the world ended. Or was supposed to at least. Anakin had dreamed of fire and blood and death for so long now. He dreams of destroying humanity.

But he also dreams of Obi-Wan. Gentle, kind Obi-Wan. Pure of soul and body. Untouched. Just for him. Waiting for him.

Anakin bides his time, knowing not to push. Knowing the man was not ready yet. But it was finally time at long last. Tonight was the night. He was 18 and the world was supposed to end.

Even now the four horsemen look for him wandering the earth. Anakin does not call to them. Not yet.

They celebrate together after he comes home from school. Obi-Wan had made a cake from scratch. Anakin blows out the candles. He makes his wish.

“Kiss me.”

Obi-Wan freezes. Anakin expects this.

“Just a peck.” He promises.

Obi-Wan doesn't move as Anakin leans it. He pecks his cheek. Then moves in for the kill.

He pries Obi-wan's mouth open and shoves his tongue inside. Obi-Wan shivers. Anakin can feel his arousal.

The older man starts to move away. Anakin holds on tighter. No. That wouldn't do. He grips Obi-Wan's face and whispers into his ear.

“Stop listening to your thoughts. Give into your body's wants.”

Obi-Wan fights the suggestion. But only a little. Anakin strips his pants off. He straddles him naked on the chair and floods his mind with pleasure. Obi-Wan is weak to resist. The words start to weave their way inside Obi-Wan until he feels him finally relax. Good. He eases off his control letting Obi-Wan's lips loosen.

“Anakin,” he groans. “We shouldn't…”

Anakin grinds against his lap.

“I love you first, Obi-Wan. Not the world. Not the people or animals or plants in it. I only want you. Only you.”

Obi-Wan clutches at his waist. Anakin's hole flutters. Puckering up to kiss Obi-Wan's fingers as he brushes between his cheeks.

“Bed.” Obi-Wan gasps out.

They move quickly. Desperately. Anakin preens. The only thing he had done was remove Obi-Wan's inhibitions and tear down his walls. This desire was all Obi-Wan's doing. This was Obi-Wan's true self unfiltered by shame.

Anakin cries at the first push. Soon the wet slap fills the room. The fuck hard and fast. Nails dig into skin until it breaks.

Obi-Wan empties himself into Anakin and the teen nearly purrs in triumph. Next time he'll mount Obi-Wan. He's sure the man would like that.

-

Obi-Wan wakes up horrified. What had he done? He stumbles up out of bed. He hurriedly pulls on a shirt and boxers and makes his way into the bathroom gripping the sink. He remembers last night. Taking pleasure. Ruining Anakin's innocence. The room spins.

Wait.

The room had literally spun. He remembers things floating in the air. What?

Anakin comes into the bathroom (hadn't he locked that?). He slides up to him still naked and kisses under his jaw. Anakin looks at him in the mirror and Obi-Wan startles. Anakin's eyes have changed. Instead of blue tinged in yellow they're now a bright golden. A mini sun burning. The air around him is charged.

Oh my god Qui-Gon was right. This was the son of Satan.

“You…you have school in an hour.” He stumbles over his tongue.

Anakin looks at him like he's amusing.

“It doesn't matter anymore. It'll crumble along with the rest of humanity.”

Obi-Wan swallows thickly. He reaches for that place inside him that was the calm in the storm of raising Anakin. It's not there. He's falling apart.

Slowly, Obi-Wan turns and cups Anakin's cheeks. He's always listened to him the best like this. Between his steady hands. They're shaking now but perhaps this was more for him than Anakin.

“Why is it crumbling?”

“The Apocalypse. The coming of days. Don't worry. You're not going to die.”

Obi-Wan’s heart wants to run and cry and burst with panic and fear. He doesnt let it. Anakin liked fear. It riled him up. The teen had confessed this to him once around the fourth time Obi-Wan had had to come take him home from school for bullying the other kids.

“Can you stop it?”

“Why?” Anakin seems genuinely confused.

“I rather like the world. It's nice here.”

What the fuck was this conversation? What was going on??

Anakin frowns. “I already know how it is here. I'm 18. I’ve seen enough.”

“No you haven't. You're still so young, Anakin.”

He hums in thought and Obi-Wan rests their foreheads together. He has to do something. Say something.

“Do you really think you can simply ask your father to keep me? It doesn't work that way. He is not benevolent nor kind. He does not care for your wants. You are a tool and nothing more. Once you have served your purpose of starting the apocalypse he'll discard you.”

Anakin frowns. He searches Obi-Wan's face. He finds truth there.

“We would have to find them. The Four Horseman.” Anakin says slowly. “We’d have to kill them before they get to me.”

Obi-Wan nods. “Alright.” Alright Fine. He'll quit his job. Pack everything up. They can leave. And in the meantime Obi-Wan will show him the world. Show him why he should care.

“There's an artifact that can hurt them. Qui-Gon spoke of it sometimes.” Anakin says casually.

Sure Fine. Yesterday Obi-Wan lived a normal life with his adopted son. Today he's in a relationship with the antichrist about to go off and kill the four horsemen. He's nothing if not resilient.

“One more thing,” Obi-Wan pulls away. He looks firmly into Anakin's eyes. “Don't ever mess with my head again. I can't be with you if you try to change me Anakin. Do you understand?”

“But I didn't change you! I freed you!”

“No Anakin. That wasn't the real me. The real me has regrets and guilt and hesitation and caution. The person last night was a version of me that doesn't exist in reality.

“What if I'd taken something away from you? Changed aspects of your personality to suit myself better?”

Anakin's eyes are wide. He stills under his hands.

“That wouldn't be you would it? It would just be a version of you that I controlled.”

“...I understand.” He mumbles. “I'm sorry Obi-Wan. I don't want another version of you. I won't do it again.”

He buries his head in the nook of his shoulder. Obi-Wan hugs him. The boy is still hard. Had been this whole time. He never would have thought twice a day ago. But now, after already ripping the bag open, it seems rather moot to ignore it.

Still, Obi-Wan was going to do this right. If there was even a right way to do this. No one has ever dated the antichrist before.

“Come here.”

He guides them to the bed and sits. He pulls Anakin onto his lap.

“I'm not going to undress. But you may use my leg if you want.”

Anakin blushes. It's adorable.

Witt his permission, he ruts against Obi-Wan's leg. He comes quickly as expected of a teenager. Obi-Wan kisses his forehead.

“Good boy.” he whispers.

Anakin shudders.

“Now go clean up. I'll make breakfast.”

Anakin nods and hurries to the bathroom. Once the door is closed the adrenaline leaves Obi-Wan. He slumps against the bed.

Fuck.

He wants to pray. He wants to get on his knees and beg forgiveness until his voice is hoarse.

He doesn't. He can't. There was work to do.

He gets up and heads to the kitchen. Anakin wasn't going to like it when he told him they weren't going to have sex again for a while. But he's weathered a million storms with the boy. It would be fine.

-

Epilogue

They travel around Europe and Australia and South America. Anakin grows. He becomes a confident, cocky, devastatingly handsome man.

They kill the horsemen one by one. They corner Famine in a town by an abandoned church. By the time the deed is done Obi-Wan is covered is blood and an awful black ichor. Anakin turns to him with desire in his eyes.

“Can I please?” he begs. He's asked so many times before. And so many times Obi-Wan has denied him.

Obi-Wan nods.

They have sex on one of the broken pews. It rattles loudly like the angels themselves protest in this sacrilegious act. He doesn't pray to God anymore. He prays to Anakin.

“I love you.” The demon tells him.

“I love you too.”

"Somewhat Heroes" (or, Why Our Ineffables have been a Couple Since the Bus Stop, Part 1)

Mini-Meta Musing #5

Our Dear Ineffables have always been heroes to us. The Almost-Apocalypse in Season 1 pushed Aziraphale and Crowley farther than anything they'd ever encountered before. Each went through a crisis, a loss, and an individual journey during the final days of those events. It's the Classic Heroes Journey, right? Surprisingly, their stories don't reflect the 12 Classic Heroes Journey Moments. Or even the top 7. On purpose? Yep.

Although they made heroic choices at the airport, they were supporting-characters in that climax. It was the Them who stopped the Four Horsemen, Anathema and Newt who prevented nuclear war, and Adam who altered reality and saved the world. Azi and Crowley were "Somewhat Heroes." Kinda ordinary. Almost like Humans Incarnate -- just getting through by doing the best they can.

Nonetheless, Crowley and Aziraphale each came out of it all a changed Being, ready for a New Life. Ready to choose each other.

At the end of a Heroes Journey, the Hero has earned a Reward. For Our Ineffables, their reward was to finally be together, safely, without fear. There was nothing either of them truly wanted more than the chance to be "Us", enjoying the world they both love.

They held hands on the bus because they wanted to. 💕 The Ineffable Commitment began that evening. They were together as a couple from that moment on. The next day, the nightingale sang for them.

Crowley subtly offers his hand, bringing it down from the rail. He can feel the change. Aziraphale takes his hand, holds it. Finally. It was a moment of Truth for the angel. The significance of that gesture of affection was something he'd been carefully avoiding for a very long time.

We can see in the gif that Azi is looking straight ahead as he reaches for Crowley's hand. This moment matters deeply to him. He's crossing a threshold of commitment to this relationship, and it took a great deal of courage, and a great deal of love.

But neither of them could have fully reached this point without going through the Transformative Journey of a "Somewhat Hero."

When Aziraphale and Crowley argued at the bandstand in S1 E3, Aziraphale was still trusting in God's Plan. It was Inconceivable that he would Ever consider killing the child-Antichrist -- he would rather jeopardize their friendship with emotional protests and hurtful words.

When a frightened Crowley later finds him, apologizes, and proposes running away, Azi isn't angry any longer... "Our side" isn't really over... He doesn't reject Crowley. He's simply completely determined in his faith that God will fix everthing. There's even a moment where he seems to (very!) briefly imagine running away to Alpha Centauri.

Oh, he's not seriously considering leaving. Certainly not now -- the world needs saving, if he can just find the right person to fix it all.

For the Somewhat-Heroes Journey of our Ineffable duo, it's noteworthy that, unlike the Classic Hero Journey, there is no Yoda or Obi-wan, no Gandalph or Professor X to guide them. There is no "Meeting the Mentor". They are on their own, with no one but each other to rely on. It's been that way since... well, since The Beginning, when they weren't even quite sure that they'd made choices "their sides" would approve of.

After this brief meeting, they part, and each "Crosses the Threshold", continuing the Journey alone. Azi heartbreakingly learns that his shoud-be mentors/authorities are only uncaring bullies. Crowley must steel himself to face what he believes he fears most -- punishers from Hell. He survives, he wins! "Tests, Allies, & Enemies". They've never had any allies but each other, but right now, they don't even have that.

The next step for Classic Heroes is the "Approach to the Inmost Cave", the inner preparation for the difficult ordeal. I don't see it for our Dear Somewhat Heroes. Maybe I'm missing something... But it seems to me that what makes them different from Classic Heroes is that they're US, they're just very human and doing their best to cope with the dramatic circumstances they keep finding themselves in.

Even when they decided to thwart the Apocalypse 11 years ago, they planned to do it quietly, subversively, no heroic gestures and with what they hoped was minimal risk. Now, with a young Antichrist coming into power with a Hell Hound at his side, Aziraphale and Crowley are just making it up as they go, doing their best and trying to survive, like any of us might.

Ah, but next is "The Ordeal". The Ordeal is when the Hero faces their most deadly enemy, or their deepest fear. They must experience a metaphorical "death and resurrection" to be transformed -- everything they hold dear is on the line. Aziraphale and Crowley each face this, two diverging paths that tear them apart and bring them back together.

The burning bookshop is Crowley's "Inmost Cave", his darkest ordeal. Until now, Crowley's fears of the tortures of Hell limited him. I don't think he fully realized until this moment that the greatest fear of his existance was actually losing Aziraphale forever.

Everything that actually matters to Crowley is destroyed, and the empty space to his right holds nothing but flames. He is broken, and drunkenly waits for The End, lost in painful memories, a metaphorical death of Self.

As everyone but our angel expected, Heaven fails Aziraphale. In his "Ordeal", he is discorporated, pulled into Heaven to prepare for war. the encounter with the Metatron was his "Inmost Cave". What Azi thought was his greatest fear, what he had avoided fully facing for millennia, turns out to be true. Heaven isn't actually Good, it can neither be trusted nor relied on. His corporation has literally "died" in the accidental chain of events from this encounter. Everything he holds dear is now on the line -- the world, its people, and most of all, Crowley. The empty space to his left holds nothing but the glaring emptiness of Heaven. This simply won't do!

Aziraphale "Seizes the Sword" first. For the first time ever, he faces a higher authority, looks them straight in the eye, and defies them. No more fawning, no stammering. He's done with trying to fit in and "act like an angel". Azi is stronger now, TRANSFORMING. He's going Home, and if that means possessing someone in a very non-angelic rather-demonic way, that's perfectly fine. He knows a very nice demon who will understand perfectly!

Crowley, alone in the bar, has no idea there is still Hope. He's lost everything. Aziraphale's return reignites him -- now our beloved demon will do and can do Anything to reunite with Aziraphale. His Angel is his "Reward", and Crowley faces down Hastur fearlessly, in total control of an inane situation. With sheer will and imagination, he drives through unsurvivable hellfire, and holds the Bentley together, determined to reach the Being he LOVES. HE IS TRANSFORMED.

Why do our own hearts flutter as we watch this scene? We recognize a Romantic Hero. Crowley has a new level of confident swagger, an extra swing in his hips. He will win his Beloved, and we have the backlit romantic silhouettes of classic cinema to prove it. The deep gentleness when he leans in and murmurs, "Leave it to me" always makes my heartbeat jump just a little more...!

The car explodes, reality returns, Crowley can't "fix" everything... But Azi again doesn't act like an angel -- it's up to him to deal with the soldier. When they encounter the child Antichrist, Aziraphale is ready to shoot if he must. He was broken and reborn, he no longer trusts Heaven and their rules. Instead, He Trusts Crowley. What was a horrific thought to him when they fought at the bandstand is now his free choice. He fires the weapon to kill the enemy and save everything he loves. Thankfully, Mdm. Tracy prevents him. Other unlikely heroes have also been led to the same place, and each contributes to averting the Apolcalypse.

For Aziraphale, there is one more step to be made to fully complete his Journey to Transformation. He still trusts God, despite everything he's experienced. When Crowley reaches out to his Angel, oh so gently and tenderly, at the bus stop, Aziraphale lights up, but isn't quite able to make that final commitment-- yet.

Lesley, the International Delivery Man, arrives. He takes away the symbols of the horsemen, as well as Aziraphale's sword. Remember, Aziraphale bravely raised that flaming sword against Satan himself. It's committing to Crowley that's the greater challenge. Lesley speaks lovingly of his wife. He leaves. As the bus approaches, Aziraphale thinks of love, and again ponders what Crowley first said:

"Angel, what if the Almighty planned it like this, all along? From the very Beginning?"

This is the final moment of Transformation for Aziraphale. Our Angel realizes that he can trust them both, God and Crowley. He doesn't have to choose. He doesn't have to surrender the core of who he is, an angel who loves and trusts both God and Crowley.

He commits, and accepts the Hero's Reward. He takes Crowley's hand. It's a Promise. It's a Vow. It's the Reward both of our Somewhat Heroes wanted most, the only thing that mattered to them, besides Azi's faith in God. Loving and being Loved by each other...

I would have loved to see a flashback scene of those quiet years in between. The years we as fans imagine and write and draw and share and reblog, the cocoa, the cuddles... Solidifying and building on the bond of six millenia, now fulfilled.

But I have no doubt what we were seeing in the beginning of Season 2. Stick around, if you'd like. This is only the start of more posts that might just convince you...

[tennessoui]

Hey Kit,

the Twitter deaddoveobikin posted their newest prompt and no joke, my first thought was that you would love them. 😁

lol you are like the third person to send this to me and you all are right, i would love this but who knows if i'll have time so kit fic speed run:

day one - oh definitely the angel to demon!anakin and priest obi-wan idea i just posted; feels very classic priest/temptation of them both, especially because once anakin is a demon, obi-wan is consciously letting himself be seduced by a creature of sin....he's just so weak when it comes to anakin (pairs well with this priest obi-wan au ficlet. wrote last year)

day two - ok hmm both obi-wan and anakin are angels but anakin begins to fall in love with a human, padmé. obi-wan cannot let his heavenly brother sin in such a way because then he would be cast out and obi-wan cannot lose him, so he researches a strict and sexy routine to help banish anakin's impure thoughts through self-punishment and strict focus on his angelic duties which really is in practice basically angelic bdsm especially when obi-wan decides anakin isn't taking the self-flagellation seriously enough so takes over for him. anakin definitely stops thinking about the woman on earth that's for sure

day three - good omens au 100% next question. one of the twins is the antichrist, but neither demon obi-wan or angel anakin can figure out which one is which, so the only solution is to raise them both together in the same house for observational purposes. they probably should have sprung for two beds, but they weren't really thinking about that!

day four - ok so religious rituals hm feels like.....they both lose their kyber crystals at the same time some time in the clone wars so have to go to Ilum to get two more....but this time the trials they face/the tricks the caves throw at them are different this time around. both of them have vivid fantasies of the other one seducing/fucking them on the cave floor and they have to shake it off to continue forward and get their crystal.....both manage the first time to throw the hallucination off.....the second time is much harder to shake because it's not actually a hallucination at all and they've just actually run into each other in the caves and decide to indulge in the fantasy....with their very real partner (their new kybers are white, you know, like--- )

day five - you know what i could see gffa, never found by the jedi!anakin becoming a cult leader entirely by accident because he's so powerful and magnetic in the Force that people bend to his will easily and become followers....he takes over tatooine from jabba and the hutts, and obi-wan is sent as a jedi on a mission to determine the Skywalker's threat level to the galaxy, the Republic, and the Jedi Order itself because this man is teaching people about the Force, but it's wrong and twisted.....obi-wan writes back that he has never met a more dangerous soul...obi-wan also quickly finds himself in the young man's bed as his wife to be

day six - lol it's giving me like. 5 times the team accidentally fuck nasty in a place considered holy/sacred by the locals of the planet, and 1 time they're asked to fuck on an altar in a ritual to decide if a planet joins the Republic or the Separatists

day seven - on the seventh day, she rested 😌

Notes: Previously...

***

“Well, I can see how I would be seen as the paternal figure inside the Fellowship, as Gandalf is not much of a father figure.” Aragorn mused. “However…”

“Oh, sir.” Crowley groaned dramatically. “Accept that the four little ones are your children! I’ve had to accept that the Antichrist is mine for some reason.”

“Gentlemen.” The therapist called. “It’s fine. As you all became dads by accident…”

“I still don’t agree with that.” Obi-Wan grumbled. “Anakin is a pain in my ass, but I refuse to be saddled with that much responsibility over him,”

“He did say you’re the closest thing he’s had to a father.” Aragorn pointed out.

“Not by choice!”

“Just accept it.” Geralt growled. “Honestly, it becomes so much easier after you do.”

“You say that because you have the cutest princess ever.” Obi-Wan threw at him.

Good omens au for the wip game!

this one is more in the ideas stage then a few of my others but i kept accidentally writing Kalluzeb with a very season 2 Aziraphel and crowley vibes and this idea wouldn't leave. These are my notes i have on it so far.

The empire is heaven (since they have strict rules and blindly follow palpy) The rebellion is the underworld but they are mostly just trying to mind their own business. Zeb is Crowley, Kallus is Aziraphel (but like a little more of an arse) Luke is Adam and Ezra is Warlock Hera and Kanan are anathema and Newt The them are Leia, Han and Lando Artoo is the hell hound obviously Sabine is essentially Beelzebub and really should learn to knock. Ezra tags along for the main journey. Anakin is Lucifer but no ones scene him in years so he’s presumed dead (he’s actually been raising luke and leia with padame in the middle of nowhere and is 100 percent aware that hell is keeping an eye on the wrong kid) Obi-wan is a stand in for lucifer and has been running hell for years, trying to hide the fact that Anakin is MIA. He’s kinda salty about it. Thrawn is gabrial but doesn’t want to be. Eli is a messenger for both heaven and hell but doesn’t want to be. Pryce is Michel, but without the rank to back it up. Tarkin is here, I presume. Probably metattron or something. Hondo will presumably make an aperance, even though I have not invited him to this party.

Plot Starts the same as the book where the antichrist is handed to Zeb who takes it to the satanic church. As they arrive a blonde man that zeb gets the feeling he’s met before is outside, but after he does the hand off and relays the encounter to Kallus he can’t recall anything notable about said man.

The two of them decide to co parent the anti christ with Zeb as a gardener and kallus as a nanny. If Ezra’s parents assume their a couple not denying them is good for their cover.

The events follow the plot of the show, but also happen entirely different due to certain characters acting like their rebels counterparts. Like Ezra. Ezra will still be a lil snoop, getting involved in everyone's business. He’s extra sassy because Kallus did not teach him manners.

no preferences for media/ships, just wanted to see how such dynamics unfold in works an Aficionado & Expert™ would award their seal of quality to 🥰

okay so this is mostly jjk with two. sigh. notable exceptions. im SURE there's some works i missed but unfortunately ao3 doesn't let you sort your history by tags so you will have to forgive me for that 😔

black sheep, green pastures is a family drama about the fallout from an alpha teenager going into unexpected heat and raping his kid brother. it's genuinely a masterpiece and the omegaverse element is very understated, it's not in-your-face at all but it works to accentuate and deepen the already complex themes the fic tackles.

one good thing is a blessing is a bodice ripper set in the edo period, as an alpha outlaw meets a pregnant omega on the run from his clan and helps him escape. it's my golden standard for well-written a/b/o longfics, and it's definitely a fic for the omegaverse fans, featuring many common tropes and lore elements that blend seamlessly with the historical setting to create a fun and romantic story that is a great intro to the average omegaverse.

honey drop is an abandoned longfic about a young alpha man who finds himself adopting an omega-to-be young child and grooming him into compliance. it's very heavy on the omegaverse, and it's a very uncomfortable read at times, but to me that only adds to the story being told, which is very self-aware about its own darkness despite being cloaked in sweet possessiveness (also worth noting that they don't have sex in the fic, the author abandoned it just before that narrative beat).

ripe is a very dark and short fic about an alpha man taking advantage of his child ward's heat, brought on early due to the boy having been molested by his father in the past. the omegaverse here is more of a pretense, an excuse for the horrific and mundane abuse more than anything; i really love the way it's written, it's incredibly evocative and the author always writes the point of view of the rapist with staggering accuracy (if you like fics where gojo is a disgusting creep you will love this author).

this heart, pierced by a sword is an insane star wars prequel fic where alpha child anakin is the antichrist and obi-wan is his mother mary. it's fucking crazy and weird and lowkey disturbing and well-written enough to keep you hooked for 30k words and also palpatine is there. go read this especially if you've watched the prequels or are in the star wars fandom. it's fucking batshit

the omegas will play is a fun and simple smut fic about two omega best friends fagging out in front of their alphas. it's very uncomplicated and it doesn't explore much of anything (though it has some interesting tidbits such as an omega with an alpha complex), the sex is decent, this foursome dynamic is quite fun to read and it's a trashy indulgence of mine.

head above the water is. sigh. an attack on titan omegaverse fic which has unfortunately grabbed me by my heaaart with its dirty claws. it's about a troubled alpha boy whose father is sexually abusing his younger omega stepbrother and if anything about that premise sounds appealing to you i promise it's not worth reading it. it's not well written at all (though it's by far not the worst fanfiction prose out there) and the omegaverse tropes are present to the point of being overbearing and cloying. to me it's camp but i understand that not everyone can share my delicate sensibilities. i read this out of morbid curiosity and it ruined my life so don't read this unless you're also ready for that or at least for a very bad fic. im only including this out of intellectual honesty lord have mercy on me.

yeah that should be about it as far as omegaverse fic recs. obviously i have read a lot more i probably have read them in the hundreds. however most of them are VERY badly-written and not particularly compelling. they're still great to jerk off to if you're like me and get turned on by a light breeze but definitely not worth examining out of intellectual curiosity. this is like a cream of the crop from my personal omegaverse history. hope you enjoy ❤️

Obi-Wan: *16* :(

Qui-Gon: What’s wrong?

Obi-Wan: The creche has gotten lax in recent years.

Qui-Gon: ???

Obi-Wan: Well here we are, looking for little initiate Grogu and his apparent kidnapper initiate Rehn, but no one’s really kicking up a fuss?

Qui-Gon: ?? That’s a good thing? They’re obviously still in the temple, we’ll find them but emotions are best when calm. Helps you concentrate.

Obi-Wan: ??? Then why did everyone freak out whenever I slipped the guards at the creche boarders???

Qui-Gon: Ahh. That was because toddler you knew a rudimentary way to disguise yourself in the force. I was warned about that when I took you on. I haven’t seen you do it yet.

Obi-Wan: Oh, you mean the hide and seek trick?? *disappears in the force*

Qui-Gon: *immediate panic even tho he’s looking right at him* DONT DO THAT UNDO IT RIGHT NOW!!!

Obi-Wan: Yup, there it is. That’s the panic I’ve been thinking would happen with a missing baby. Well, that explains a lot.

Qui-Gon: *trying to calm his racing heart* Grounded. Forever.

Obi-Wan: That’s also fair.

[jedi-enthusiast]

Your Obi-Wan Antichrist jokes make me wonder if your fic Obi-Wan is pulling some Chosen One power over here. Just a stray 1:30 am thought.

Ok, I know you probably weren't looking for an in-depth answer, but it's now 2:30 am for me and I've been looking for an excuse to ramble about my fic so-

In my fic, prophecies are like visions in the fact that they can be correct and can be helpful, but they're also unreliable and can mean something wildly different than whatever was assumed.

Like in Rebels when Ezra got a vision of the one guy whose name I can't remember that was some "anti-Empire radio host" and assumed, from what he saw in the vision, that he was one of the good guys and helped out his parents...but then it turned out that he was actually working for the Empire and was implied to have turned his parents in.

So, pair that with the fact that 1. we never hear the actual wording of the prophecy or who/where it came from, and 2. when Qui-Gon does his whole spiel about how Anakin is "the child of the prophecy" everyone looks at him like he's lost his fucking marbles and...yeah.

So, while Qui-Gon, and maybe some others, assumed that Anakin was "the Chosen One" or that there was a Chosen One, that doesn't necessarily mean it's true.

Take that as you will <3

Oh god for day 3 of the blasphemous au week, angel!Anakin in cardigans and sweater vests... obviously he's himself, not Aziraphale, but the costuming, maybe with a pair of round gold spectacles..... hehehehe

oh any angel anakin in a good omens au would look like Hayden Christensen’s character in that movie he’s in with the wired glasses. Shattered glass 100%….probably a bit different than aziraphale’s style, maybe a few less sweater vests or waist coasts, more white turtlenecks or dove gray oxfords all very neatly buttoned… 🤌🤌

Meanwhile I’m assuming demon obi-wan would probably look like ewan mcgregor’s birds of prey character as Roman is his most villainous and yet still slutty character I can think of

So dressing the Antichrist twins would come down to whoever wakes them up first…they have pastel outfits and white little boots and delicate lace umbrellas and then they also have baby’s first leather jacket and onesies with bejeweled studs sticking out of the shoulders
