#i feel like i would read the fuck out of a child athlete/podstar anakin in a gffa au

[tennessoui]

about ur extras au,,, i have a canon au in my head of like. when anakin is a child on tatooine he and his friends keep making a deal with a director filming a prestige tv show of like. they’re in the background of every outdoor scene but sometimes one of them pretends to die tragically to represent slavery, and then as Ani is a podracer he gets asked to be in an indie film as a characters little brother, and then as Anakin’s a jedi he becomes a famous core worlds podracer/swoop racer under obi-wans nose, (like in that one ask u answered a few months ago where obi-Wan got jealous of all those people who got to admire his padawan)

and when they become famous jedi during the war, it gets dug back up and anakin has to just. fucking cringe because now obi-wans gonna KNOW but Obi-Wan now is jealous of all of anakin’s fans (bc u know with his looks there’s a fanclub)

ooo tbh this is sooo good!! it does remind me of the ask i got a few months back where anakin is a child star via his pod racing skills and keeps getting recognized (and admired) and obi-wan doesn't realize this and thinks his padawan is just being lusted after the galaxy over

but it also reminds me of my space actors au where anakin gets discovered as a child actor on tatooine and sort of rises through the ranks (mostly in porn films when he becomes legalish) and obi-wan is a very famous actor in his own right who is sort of becoming a more retired star but they get cast together in the same movie and uh sparks fly but only if the sparks are like. weapons of mass destruction.

but eventually they fall in love

tbh i guess i only have so many pathways in my head where actors. + space + young + obikin can go tbh
