Hi, Ben! I hope your day is going well! Had a further thought I forgot to include in my last msg. So, speaking of Moulin Rouge, and that episode of My Life Is Murder where Tem plays an aspiring musician (I would include a video or picture, but YT and Google are not cooperating today), imagine one of the three walking in on another singing a lullaby to which ever little one you decide on (or just a random foundling, even.) I feel the best potential options here would be Satine or Jango walking in on the other (especially if the sexin’s have happened but the feels are still a WIP), both of them walking in on Obi-Wan, or Obi-Wan walking in on the two of them doing a duet.

Similarly, for the whole FIL thing; presuming that you’re going the “unexpected encounter lead to unplanned consequences of the natal variety” route, this could also work with him sending the two of them to check on the little one only to find Obi-Wan singing to him, or even just “accidentally” leaving a baby monitor turned on so they overhear it. (Do I maybe have a thing about dudes who can sing? That’s not important right now. XD ) Hell, if you haven’t used it yet in Caught Somewhere In Time, I imagine one finding the other singing Cal to sleep would cause a rather powerful heart boner. XD

I feel like I had other thoughts, but I have to clock back in from lunch, so I will hush for now. I hope you’re feeling good and the writing is flowing! Take care! *HUGS!*

Hi B! I have lots of thoughts, so In this one I’m just gonna wish you a good day at work and then write out an entire post for our little Jangobitine au. Because I have inspiration. And yes I am going to count my ramblings into my wordcount for nano cause I’ve only been editing and formatting today and I haven’t been writing. (Though I already passed 50K, I still want to get my 30 day badge XD).

I know I don’t have a way to tag you, but I will mail you the link. Promise.

And including your last message so I can answer both in one ask:

And oh, yes, I LOVE Moulin Rouge. I remember seeing it in the theater when it first came out, and the soundtrack was in fairly regular rotation in my CD player (not to age myself or anything XD ). Literally as soon as I hit send, my brain went "did you really just space on the fact that Ewan was in that, too?" XD And the two of them were one of my favorite parts of Aquaman. Everything about the two of them was just adorable, and I loved that they let her be taller than her love interest. I'd seen jokes about two Satines in Ewan's character past before, but I think it was seeing her with the paler hair in Aquaman that made me go "wait..." and look up Satine Kryze's height on Wookipedia (which I'm pretty sure is Nicole's rl height, too.) Hmm...her as Boba's mother just amuses the hell out of me for some reason, while her as Omega's mom could definitely explain the blond hair.

Speaking of nephews, a fair amount of SW fic I've read mentions Bo-Katan's nephew/Satine's son in ways that either heavily imply or outright state that he's Obi-Wan's son, and I don't know if he's technically alive at this point in canon (and I doubt they'd ever actually make that lineage real), but I'd love to see him roll up to Luke's Island of Misfit Jedi and watch the fallout of them all learning who he is, and also for more crossing of the Mandalorian/Jedi streams. XD

I have something like that!

Well, similar enough. Jangobi+Pre and Satine who has a child from That One Time she and Obi hooked up as Teens that she´s raising with Pre because Jango vanished for ten years and Obi is very much loving but also busy.

Somehow, Pre is the common sense.

They get a few years being a weird foursome, Pre and Jango get dubbed "Mand'alor the Bickering" and nobody knows if that includes Satine and Obi too, Arla and Miles mock everyone involved and Pre has a violent little tagalong.

Then, within a year, all goes to hell. Jango goes on a long hunt and doesn´t come back. Obi-Wan looses a Master and gains a child Padawan. Mandalore almost has an economic breakdown and politics get muddled.

So for the next ten years, this is the situation:

Satine is trying to keep the New Mandalorian council from being bigotted assholes and to push for reforms that All mandalorians can live together

Pre is playing 4D holochess being a) Satine´s most trusted gouvernor, b) their spy in Death Watch and c) basically the only leader-shaped figure the traditional mandalorians accept right now. (Thank you, Jango)

Obi-Wan is raising a Padawan. That Padawan is Anakin Skywalker

Jango is dealing with a sith-spell in his head as good as he can.

Arla, Myles, Bo, Kal, Walon, Del ... everyone is exasperated

Obi-Wan finds the Clones. And Jango.

Jango: Boba, please go to Kal and tell him he´s in charge Boba: Buir??? Obi-Wan: Don´t worry ad'ika. I won´t kill him. Jango: That´s reassuring Obi-Wan: I´m going to lay out very detailed how much he let us all down Jango: Is dismemberment an option?

HUGE screaming fight, angry sex, Jango makes breakfast as an apology, then plan.

It´s them, so the plan is needlessly complicated.

Geonosis happens. Jango meets Mace, gets beaten up for hurting Obi. He later meets Obi-Wan´s child Padawan.

Anakin: You weren´t there when he needed you Jango: In my defense I had a Sith in my hand and a child slaves as soldiers situation on my hands

They get along over shared experiances.

Screaming fight, Pre vs. Jango edition.

Satine and Jango have it out over com. She demands visiting rights for Boba, who has vanished, and everyone else Jango claimed.

Jango: Even with most of the other trainers calling dips, that´s still an army Satine: Do I look like I give a kriff?

The Clones - the ones not adopted otherwise, that is - get three new parents and an indetermined number of new siblings.

Someone: Do you still fuck tem? Satine: depends on the mood Pre: Sometimes Jango: Rarely in the same place, would though Obi-Wan: No, she helped me figure out I´m not into the fair sex

There is so much shit about who´s children are the oldest.

I want. Arranged marriage Jangobitine

I need it to be vaguely insane but in a fun way. I have dynamics in my brain but none of the fics I've been reading really scratch the itch the way I'd like it to.

Jedi Political Marriage AU

AU where a regular 'duty' of Jedi is to get married off for politics Fic starts out like a classic "ooh, make our ship get together by way of arranged marriage plot where this is a once-in-a-millennium event, (usually an ob*kin fic where one of them isn't a Jedi)" plot and then slowly spirals out and pulls back the masquerade into something more like the Jedi Indentured AU (which has several authors, but I think the main one is @primeemeraldheiress).

Imagine Jedi living with the knowledge that, at any given moment, one of them might be called upon like a medieval princess to get married for the sake of the Republic.

And the marriage might be just on paper. It might be... significantly (horrifically) more. Not everyone goes through this specific duty. Maybe one in ten, if that.

But nobody wants to be noticed, really. Not by those outside the Temple. There's always a risk, see, that someone might decide it's time to claim their... promised tithe. That's not how it works, really, but more than once, a particularly selfish or mercurial planetary leader has threatened to secede from the Republic in order to secure the hand of a Jedi they had their eyes on.

Getting married to bring a necessary peace is one thing. Getting sold off to the highest bidder is something else entirely.

I think this would work best as a Mando/Jedi fic (Jangobi? Obitine? Clones as heirs with Rexwalker or Codywan or Rexsoka? IDK and IDC) that's mostly from the Mando POV where they specifically do not know that this is standard practice and has been for a few centuries, so when someone suggests an arranged marriage to assure each other that Mandalorians and the Republic are going to stay allies, the Mando is just like "well, that's old-fashioned and kind of icky, but I guess that works."

The Jedi that's asked to perform the deed is under the impression that the Mando asked for them specifically.

I think. I think it needs to be either Obi-Wan or Ahsoka getting sent out to marry, as a Palpatine plot to isolate Anakin.

I just think the reader journey from 'oh, fun premise, very standard but could be fun and romantic and tropey or cliched' to 'wait… WAIT…' has potential.

Anakin's pissed because he thinks the Mandos asked for his master or padawan because they saw holos and thought I Wanna Fuck That. The person getting married also thinks this. The Mando is just expecting to sign a piece of paper and then let their new spouse go off to fight a war because, well, there is a war on, they know you don't keep your spouse from a fight they believe in just because you got married, especially if you're not even in love.

Palpatine and his cronies just dropping Implications that this is a very important connection so You Better Be Ready To Just Go Along With Any Sexual Tastes The Mando Leader Has.

And like. Obi-Wan's a good actor. Ahsoka's decent, and can excuse nervousness with her age. She'd break sooner, but Obi-Wan could keep up the pretense of being perfectly happy and willing to enter this arrangement for a very long time before his partner realizes he's under the impression that he has no other choice.

So that was the original AU and then I came up with a more specific one a day or so later. Kicks off as seemingly Jangobi.

Jango didn't have a lot of qualifications in mind for his Jedi War Bride or whatever, just 'competent fighter that can avoid assassination, competent speaker that can avoid getting trapped in conversation with Jango's political enemies, willing to learn Mando'a and wear a vambrace.'

When Obi-Wan is sent, Jango's just like 'oh cool, they found someone that already speaks Mando'a, and he's a war general that's called The Negotiator, that fits' and assumes that Obi-Wan was picked for those reasons.

Satine doesn't find out who the marrying Jedi is until the wedding. This is because Jango also doesn't know who the marrying Jedi is until the wedding.

IDK what exactly Satine and Obi-Wan's year together was about here, since Jango is still Mand'alor so the Death Watch situation definitely played out differently, but it happened and they're still kind of in love. Jango's deeply uncomfortable when he catches them looking longingly at each other. He asks if he can step back and just let them marry, since Satine's head of civvie government and basically his second in terms of diplomatic matters?

He is told by the attending senator (someone on Palpatine's side) that this is not appropriate, because all the contracts and treaties were drawn up with the assumption that the Mand'alor would be marrying. None of the Jedi are there to hear the conversation. They still think Jango's doing this for Horny Reasons.

Jango meanwhile is just like "well, if they're both cool with extramarital nonsense, I can just foist him off on the Duchess and pretend I don't know what's going on when he sneaks off during visits for Mandatory Marital Meetings."

Satine is a little bitter but at least she'll get to see Obi-Wan more often. It's not like Jango's doing this for anything other than Politics, after all.

(Obi-Wan is steeling himself for getting forced into a pregnancy the second the war is over.)

(Everyone is going into this with very different expectations.)

Obi-Wan goes into the Wedding Night uncomfortable but ready to lay back and think of the Republic, and flirts accordingly. Jango is now under the impression that the Jedi is sort of into him, but not particularly ready to sleep with a new spouse without knowing him. There is a conversation full of mistaken assumptions that do not get corrected before they get to sleep. Obi-Wan expects he's going to have to do the deed the next day and just got a pass tonight because Jango's tired.

Of course, none of this gets clarified the next day, because Obi-Wan gets Called Away To War. Jango spends the goodbye stiff and ready for all this political bullshit to be over, and avoiding the glare of Kenobi's apprentice. He assumes Anakin's just annoyed that someone's stealing his dad, like many kids whose parent is getting married.

Time passes. Anakin gets knighted. He starts gaining notoriety, and there are whispers in the Senate…

Padme approaches Obi-Wan and tells him that Senators are starting to show interest in Anakin's hand as a possible Jedi Spouse. Some are disgustingly old. Padme's fond of Anakin and wouldn't force him into anything, may she have Obi-Wan's permission to ask his hand in marriage?

Obi-Wan doesn't see what his opinion has to do with anything, but Anakin's been drawing their names in a heart since he was ten years old and knew that was a thing people did, so he's pretty sure Anakin would be elated. Go get it, girl.

Padme and Anakin get married. It is bliss, at least compared to most Jedi marriages. The Jedi as a whole politely ignore Anakin's Many Emotions.

They do not need to politely ignore this marriage, but they do need to ignore the two making out like horny teenagers in the corner. They are insufferable without the need for secrecy. Calm the fuck down, guys.

There is a visit to Mandalore, for Official Political Marriage Reasons. There is another Jedi-Politician marriage that shows up a day later. It's with a Senator that was very much banking on having a Pet Spouse that couldn't talk back or refuse him in bed. The Jedi in question maintains a quiet, reserved countenance that Jango and Satine both take several days to realize is less "Jedi are tranquil and detached" and more "abused spouse is not allowed to speak until spoken to," and that's mostly triggered by Obi-Wan maneuvering to get some alone time with the Jedi in question to get them a bit of respite.

Nobody feels comfortable actually asking Obi-Wan directly about this, but Satine gets someone to start researching Jedi marriages and looking for Sketchy Incidents, of which there are many.

They do not get a chance to confront Obi-Wan and ask if he'd thought this was what he was signing up for--especially since Jango's been finding him weirdly sexually available this past week, and had thought it was a 'let's both make the best of it' vibe and not a 'I need to keep you happy and expect you to use me as you'd like' situation--because war calls. Again.

The next time Obi-Wan visits his unwanted husband, it is with padawan and grandpadawan in tow. Anakin is still glaring at Jango at every chance, but seems incredibly protective of his baby sister. Baby sister is fifteen.

Everyone is very busy, because Death Watch is annoying. Neither Jango nor Satine can get Obi-Wan alone to have That Very Important Conversation. Anakin looks ready to claw apart anyone who gets too close to Ahsoka. Nobody's sure of how to take this.

Do not ask me what the Clone Situation is, I do not know. Jango doesn't have a reason to deal with Kamino in this AU but maybe his DNA was stolen and part of the reason the Republic was so desperate to treat with Mandalore was because he was raising a fuss about his clones--his kids--being enslaved by the Republic? Let's go with that.

Someone, maybe a less-shitty Bo who stuck with Satine instead of becoming a terrorist, overhears Anakin and Obi-Wan having a hissed conversation about how another politician seems to have taken interest in Ahsoka with The Intent To Demand Her Marriage, something that's been happening far more often since the war started and catapulted Jedi into social media.

Bo is like "wow, that sounds… fucked. I hope I misunderstood but I don't want to have to talk to these people. I'll tell Satine and make it her problem."

Satine and Jango finally get Obi-Wan (and Anakin, who's angry and upset and all such Anakin things) to sit down and talk over the reality of this marriage in light of what the standards for Jedi political marriages are. They manage to clarify a few points, like:

Nobody on Mandalore's side actually asked for a Jedi marriage. The Chancellor did that.

Jango didn't actually ask for anyone in particular, he just wanted to make sure his Jedi could defend themselves verbally and physically if necessary, because extremist assassins and bitchy politicians are a reality.

If Jango had known the Senate would send Obi-Wan, he'd have renegotiated to get Satine as his spouse, because she'd have told him they had a thing and he'd have happily opted out of a marriage he had no interest in.

The Chancellor's thinly-veiled suggestion that Obi-Wan would have to spread his legs at any chance comes to light. Jango is disgusted. Satine is horrified. Anakin insists there must have been a miscommunication. Anakin is summarily told to shut the fuck up.

The standard of Jedi Political Marriages is finally explained, and the Jedi get confirmation that Mandalore has until recently been part of the wider galaxy that the reality of those marriages is hidden from. In the Senate, it's a Worst Kept Secret kind of deal, but only the worst tabloids ever talk about the fact that the Jedi don't have a choice and are often functionally the Senate's forced volunteers for marital rape. Official publications are strong-armed into skirting around the issue.

Jango has no intention of forcing himself on Obi-Wan. He'd take back the heavy petting they've done so far (they got to third base) if that was a thing he could do. Please just go fuck Satine instead, you both actually want that and nobody is going to be forcing themselves in that situation.

Anakin's marriage is a happy one, don't worry. He is on cloud nine. Nobody needs to intervene with that.

Yes, people are starting to show interest in Ahsoka, and that is why Anakin has been so snappish with everyone that gets near her except the clones and Obi-Wan.

Satine, after a few minutes, says that Mandalore has no laws against polygamy, and she has an heir that would be entirely understanding of a marriage to save someone from a worse fate where neither party has expectations of more than the singular kiss to 'seal the deal' at the wedding itself. Getting married to Ahsoka wouldn't stop him from getting married to someone else as well, later. Korkie and Ahsoka have already become friends, so…

The kids are called in. They're asked if a marriage on paper only is something they'd be open to, just to keep Ahsoka safe from a much worse situation. Korkie immediately agrees, because he is his mother's son aunt's heir, and she raised him to be this way. The adults hammer out most of the details, and everyone splits.

Jango starts making a fuss about the Republic and the clones again, and somehow (re: he let Satine do most of the talking) drags another Jedi marriage out of the Senate. Since Korkie and Ahsoka have already met, it's easy to point out that they should be the pairing and then just bitch until even the Chancellor lets it happen.

Satine and Obi-Wan are sneaking off at any opportunity. Jango is politely ignoring them, and then they ask if he wants to join in, like two years in. (Ahsoka and Korkie are mildly disgusted that grownups have romantic lives.) (Anakin is freaking out over his impending fatherhood and has not noticed a goddamn thing because Padme.)

Something something, the Separatist Crisis is almost over but before Palpatine can set off O66, Jango up and declares a war on the Republic if they don't release his clones and also end the Jedi marriages. IDK where it goes from there but Palps dies, chips are gone, Jedi survive and get to send a big fuck you to the Senate and remove all the Jedi stuck in abusive marriages (nobody touches Anidala, they are more than happy, just ignore their general insanity), etc.

That's it, that's all I've got.

“You did what you had to do.” & Obitine for the angst/fluff prompt meme? Or Jangobitine, if you'd prefer.

Angst/Fluff Prompt List Part 4

Oh dear. I have a terrible thought. I’m sorry.

Satine finds out her sister is alive the day after she comes to the public with a claim that Jango Fett, the last Mand’alor, is willing to work with her to bridge the gaps between Old Mandalore and New.

Satine is publicly married to a Jedi she’s mostly in love with, and working with a True Mandalorian whom she may yet pull into their bed. They are political, through and through, all three working to save a planet damned by the fates. Bo-Katan stands at the shoulder of Pre Vizsla when he calls them all out in a broadcast across the system, coldly glaring at the camera as if she knows her eyes will land on the sister she’s cut off for the better part of a decade.

Satine holds her sister’s cooling body a week later, choking on her sobs and the memory of poisoned, hateful words leveled at her by the only blood she has left, accusations of traitor and dar’vod and hypocrite.

(Korkie is a dear, but he is her cousin’s child, and he is little more than a toddler. He isn’t... he’s not...)

(Oh, Bo-Katan.)

It’s not unexpected, that Bo-Katan dies in the same attack as Pre Vizsla. She’s a terrorist. Her death is... it’s sad, yes, but Satine has guards, and she’s just publicly aligned herself with people who may not seek to reestablish a Mandalorian empire, but are much more keen on the violent side of self-defense than Satine’s pacifist cohort.

No, what’s unexpected, what’s horrible, is that the last-second kill shot is by Jango Fett.

Satine’s grief is not private. Her screaming and tears are filmed and shared across systems, sectors, the entire damned galaxy. Pre had hoped to broadcast his victory against Fett, after all.

There is betrayal in Satine’s eyes, for all that Bo-Katan has been half a second from kliling Satine, for all that Jango had killed one Kryze to save the other, for all that this is defense of another and as close to justified as any could hope.

But it is her sister.

Obi-Wan leads Jango away, when he tries to explain. It’s too early to apologize for the pain caused.

“You did what you had to do,” Kenobi tells him, as if he hadn’t killed or dismembered half a dozen assassins in the last three days alone. Their eyes meet. “But if you try to tell her that now, she will hate you for the rest of your lives. Give her time.”

OKAY BUT JANGOBI AS RIVAL KNIGHTS?? obi-wan, a travelling knight of the jedi order, has a very proper courtly love thing goin on with duchess satine of mandalore, all longing glances and favors and hand kisses, but he’s also fucking his rival the masked knight (aka jango) on the side because he’s a slut. unbeknownst to him, jango is secretly the rightful king there to fuck shit up/commit a hostile takeover/win the tournament for satine’s hand specifically to reject her in front of god and everyone just to be a prick.

ALSO unbeknownst to him is that fighting then fucking is the ACTUAL mandalorian tradition of romance, and jango thinks he’s found his prince consort and the love of his life etc etc. mayhaps his lordly love will finally consent to a kiss on the (blush) mouth after a solid month of banging in the stables. it’s a little fast for mouth kisses, they haven’t even tried every position yet, but jango is in love!!!

meanwhile the mandalorian court is watching the action avidly. such a lewd foreign knight is using his ACTUAL MOUTH for hand kisses instead of his forehead! he hasn’t even punched the duchess out or let her fuck him yet as is right and proper!!! satine is all aflutter at these passionate foreign republic customs. how scandalous! all the other knights vying for his hand by trying (and failing) to beat him in a fight must be seething with jealousy. only the masked knight is a proper rival for the duchess, but they all know that a little thing like third base has nothing on HAND KISSES.

Having feelings about courtly love today? :D

all day every day lmao

I love all of this! (JangObiTine) What if Obi-wan had previous affairs with both Satine and Jango. And so both of them are trying to "win his affection" (the jedi order is a nice bonus) and Obi-wan misunderstands and thinks that Jango and Satine have a thing going on. The fact that he caught them in a closet (they were arguing) does not help his confusion. Shenanigans happen (Satine and Jango being petty at each other) before they eventually talk like the adults that they are. Everything comes to a head when deathwatch attacks and kidnaps some younglings including initiates. Action stuff happens. Obi-wan, Satine, and Jango all accidentally become the rightful owner of the Darksaber

Jedi arranged/political marriage pretext I'd like to see more of: Jedi DO leave the Republic, and the marriage is of a Jedi, probably a council member, to secure the safety of their members on their new home planet.

The Mandalorian angle has the benefit of being less closely tied to Republic rule, and could be very tasty and easy to justify with either Obitine or Jangobi, both of which I enjoy. Depending on where in the timeline it happens, the spouse varies.

But I think that if it's Mandalore, especially Jangobi, a heavy part of the argument for getting the Jedi settled and making up for 'draining resources' is shoveling as many people as possible into Agricorp work on the deserts of Manda'yaim.

As an Obitine fic that takes place between TPM and AotC, it's really easy to justify?

Like just. The Jedi Council going "okay do we have any planets where we could move, and there's a primary ruler that would be open to marrying a Jedi for protection from the Republic and… wait. Someone get Kenobi."

(This also works for BailObi, but Alderaan is unfortunately still staunchly Republic territory, while Mandalore's status is a lot more vague.)

With the Jangobi angle, it would be a lot more "Mand'alor Fett captures a Jedi because he's been hearing rumors about them expanding their influence, gets the story that they're actually looking to move, and are basically going to be refugees, and decides that there would be no power move that would secure Mandalore's independence from Republic bullshit like getting their best warriors on his side, but he needs to prove that he's in control to the Death Watch-style extremists, so he's going to have to marry a Jedi for. Reasons."

IDK it's arranged marriage fic, we don't need a whole lot of justification.

God it's so easy to make these about Obi-Wan (consider: Quinlan/that one force-sensitive Stewjoni prince he saved and messed around with a few years ago), but it would be really funny to make this Anidala by shifting ages around a bit or starting the war later. Just like.

Naboo, the planet the Chancellor of the Republic is from, has taken in the Jedi, threatening secession, and refusing to give them back. Senator Amidala has married one of them. Everyone has questions but none of those questions are getting answered. Count Dooku of Serreno has made overtures to join the CIS but Naboo is uninterested. Amidala has been unavailable for her comment due to being on her honeymoon. Master Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi has only offered that this entire situation is a headache and he'd love to know where he went wrong.

I'm trying to figure out what other ships I could do with this. I think "senior padawan Barriss saves Tatooine's accidental ruler-through-incredible-violence Anakin from an attempt at retaking the planet by the Hutts, spills some personal woes while tending to his wounds (she can't leave the planet yet anyway and wasn't even supposed to be here), and he wakes up like 'hey if you need to move somewhere you can come to Tatooine, I'd marry you in a heartbeat'" would be a fun one, and also immediately collapse as like. A'Sharad overhears Barriss's report and goes to fight Anakin about it personally for inviting more settlers to a planet that's already trying to crowd out the native populace. That would need some tweaking... maybe Anakin's actually already done something similar, and led an exodus of Hutt slaves from Tatooine and settling them on a new planet, and needs help keeping Hutts and other slavers away from trying to take back their slaves? Not sure Anakin would suggest a marriage, though. Someone else might, but not him.

I considered Blyla, but IMO the plot only works if the Jedi are in decent standing (instead of suffering from war propaganda) with the galaxy at large and only need to escape the Senate's influence, not widespread hate.

OH wait if Anakin took over Tatooine when he was a teenager and then gave control to his mom, because she's the smartest obviously, and Qui-Gon survived Naboo, then maybe Qui-Gon/Shmi???

I'm struggling to think of more ships or pick one to drag on an AU adventure. Help. My brain is trying to argue that Obi-Wan marries Hondo and the entire Temple ups and leaves for Florrum.

Is this an AU where Palpatine thinks he has more chance of getting Obi-Wan to Fall than Anakin, and that’s why he’s concentrating on making Obi-Wan’s life shitty? Or is the idea behind forcing Obi-Wan into a horrible and unwanted marriage meant to pull Obi-Wan away from being able to support Anakin so that when Anakin’s happy marriage is suddenly threatened (and I’m sure Sheev can think up a bunch of ways to do that) he has fewer people to turn to? (Or is it just a matter of angering Anakin about this institutional abuse?)

Also, for this to work, Sheev must be under the impression that Jango will be genuinely abusive to Obi-Wan, otherwise the risk that people will actually talk to each other and this will come out is too great. How did he make that mistake?
