sometimes i forget that my au lore is not canon so lemme tell you about my ✨obi-wan+quinlan master-padawan “family” unit✨ headcanons
in my mind, (which idk exactly how much canon influenced this), obi-wan gets anakin (9) when quinlan already has aayla as a padawan (14/15ish?)
the timeline is dicey bc quinlan is literally on tatooine during phantom menace? but for aayla to be the age she is and her to be his padawan she has to already be his padawan
anyway when anakin becomes a padawan, his closest jedi bestie is aayla secura (which is just absolutely impeccable taste)
yes it’s because they are iconic duo but also because i think baby anakin would primarily get along best with kids/people who are a bit older or a bit younger than him. in my mind (and probably not in canon), it’s a 5-6 yr gap and they have a cute cool sister-dorky lil brother dynamic
this works out perfectly for everyone bc master obi-wan is obviously friends/annoyances with master vos!
it’s also great bc quinlan’s personal experience with the outer rim and being a unique black sheep sort of his age group makes him very qualified to give obi-wan advice/help guide anakin who pretty immediately also finds himself in that niche
based on all of this i firmly believe in quinlan and obi-wan doing some co-mastering
(which given the community oriented nature of the jedi i doubt that’s scandalous, though i’m sure they put their own insane spin on it)
it’s probably usually anakin tagging along with aayla and her master so that obi-wan can finally take a karking nap
or obi-wan and quinlan being paired together with their padawans (since i doubt obi-wan would really try to be a consistent authority figure to aayla? i think he would treat her more as a peer)
the comedic potential of this unofficial arrangement is endless honestly
aayla and anakin getting annoyed at how over-protective both of their masters are and running off together to figure shit out themselves hmph. (they succeed but there is a Significant amount of property damage :/)
aayla and obi-wan having brunch to sigh about the insanity of quinlan and anakin and their desire to do shit purely out of spite (although obi-wan only has 1 leg to stand on there)
anakin and quinlan trying to figure out maximize their respective talents for driving obi-wan insane, which leads to a 2 week long padawan swap. obi-wan almost doesn’t want to switch back but it’s not quinlan’s fault that his is the best padawan
as for obi-wan and quinlan, i honestly don’t know if i find it funnier if they were fwb while this stuff happens or not?? so quinlan and obi-wan are schrodinger’s friends with benefits for the comedy
anakin and aayla both constantly do the jedi version of “well Mike’s dad and mom let him use their wii whenever he wants >:(“ to obi-wan and quinlan.
i’m sure quinlan and obi-wan both hold back laughter every time it happens and they mentally store each incident to be brought up on their padawan’s knighting days or anytime they have a disagreement among themselves
(obi-wan: aayla told me you forgot the difference between left and right last week -_-
quinlan: well anakin told me that you’re lame and i’m the only fun jedi master in the order :P)
anyway i’m sure quinlan and obi-wan had a blast and took way too many pictures to put in their lil co-master photo album. they pull them out when they get sad about how grown up their padawans have become :,)
