giving the best dialogue to anakin and padmé divorcing once more lol <3

“If it were your best friend who choked on flowers he couldn’t give you, what would you do?”

Anakin blinks, more than a decade’s worth of Jedi training the only thing keeping him from reeling back. “What?” Padmé’s eyes gleam back at him, hard as flint. “If Master Kenobi developed hanahaki for you, if you saw him in pain because of you, would you have done what I did for Sabé?”

Anakin shakes his head, suddenly lost and feeling rather like the trap has been sprung. “You didn’t do anything wrong to her,” he says helplessly. “You said you paid for her surgery–”

“There were two things I could have done,” Padmé replies. “But I was a good wife. I didn’t even think about the other option. I didn’t even try. Because of you.”

The other option. The only other cure for the flowering disease: for the love to be returned.

Anakin cuts his eyes away from the face of his wife. They jump from the fireplace to the open doors leading to a balcony, to a chair in the corner to the old-fashioned books tucked neatly away in their alcove. “Don’t ask me this,” he says, begs, because Padmé is his wife and once, he loved her ardently.

But she is also a politician, and she knows to never give in when she is so close to her victory. “Tell me what you would do,” she demands softly. “Tell me you would do the same. If it were Obi-Wan dying, tell me you would hold his hand as he underwent the surgery. Tell me that you would remember me.”

“He would never develop flowers for me,” Anakin snaps as if the words have been ripped from his throat, and his hands loosen behind his back, grab at the ends of his hair and then scrub roughly over his face.

Padmé’s lips curl and her eyes flash, a spark of embers beneath a blanket of ash. “Put aside your belief that your master is too much of a Jedi to fall in love, that is not what I want—”

Anakin shakes his head, once, sharply. He feels cornered. Like a wild animal, biting at anything that encroaches into his space. “You asked me to speak and now you will not listen,” he snarls, and he is being cruel. This is cruel.

But this is also the truth, and it is what she wanted. 

“He would never develop flowers for me,” he says again. “Because you only develop flowers when the love is unrequited. And there has never been a moment in my life that I have not been in love with Obi-Wan Kenobi. Is that what you wanted to hear, Padmé?”

Your art is everything!!!! Thank you for sharing it!!!!

I'm not in Star Wars fandom but your art has pushed me over the precipice.

I guess I'm gonna watch the prequels and actually join the fandom now!

What are your watch/read suggestions/reccomendations for Star Wars Canon and Canon Adjacent material with Obikin in mind?

OMG Anon, 😭😭 First off, I never expected my art would even reach someone outside the fandom, let alone causes anyone to wanna watch Star Wars. So this a huge discovery for me, thank you!! 🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️❤️

I'm not an expert, so this is from my experiences:

Btw Anon, I hope you don't expect Anakin and Obi-Wan to start exploring each other's bodies in any of these stories lol (I mean there's that one scene in Kenobi show, but that falls under torture) When I draw them, about 20% are canon compliant, 20% me being delusional, and 60% is just me being stupid gay for Obi-Wan. Regardless I hope you enjoy your Star Wars Obikin journey 🎉✨

— i think i’ve seen this film before, and i didn’t like the ending / i’m not your problem anymore, so who am i offending now? / you were my crown, now i’m in exile seeing you out

[nolouvreart]

Your artwork is genuinely stunning. I can't stop staring at your young Obi-Wan pieces. Not sure if you're an Obikin fan but do you have any fanfic recs? I just found the ship after rewatching the prequels for the first time in years and would love to read some more.

Thank you!!🤍 And well… I rather enjoy it!! Even have this WIP but there too much to clean up💀

There are few fics that I read about them and that I actually enjoyed: “Second Chances” by Lorixjake, “Needing/Getting” by chapstickaddict and “Streets of Gold” by BarmaDumet

You try so loud to love me

I cannot seem to hear...

And as you grip me like an animal that you're about to spear,

"Be good to me" I whisper

And you say "what?" And I say,

"Nothing dear"

vos has entered the hanahaki au group chat <3

“There is one more thing, Obi-Wan,” Healer Che says as he is smoothing down his robes, holo scans of his lungs clutched in one hand.

“Force,” he snaps, “what else is there?” 

I’m dying, it’s unavoidable this time, it’s because of my own foolishness, it’s because of my uncontrolled heart, it’s because of my own weakness. I’m dying and there is nothing to be done except allow it to happen and now you tell me there’s more?

The smile she gives him is one part wry, two parts sad. A sliver of his pride rankles at the perceived pity, but he should probably get used to it. Eventually, he will be incapable of hiding his condition, and everyone will look at him the way Che is now.

“It is rare that we must give a terminal diagnosis,” Che says. “When we do, it is our practice to contact the patient’s emergency contact, pull them back from their mission or their leave should they be outside the Temple, so that the patient does not have to come to grips with the news by themselves. But given the nature of this disease, I want to have your explicit consent before moving forward. Do you agree to allow me to reach out to your emergency contact?”

Obi-Wan looks at her and then scrubs a hand over his face, letting his shoulders drop. “Force,” he says, drawing out the word like a curse. There isn’t really much in the way of a choice, though he appreciates Che for taking the time to frame it as one.

After all, his emergency medical contact will find out soon anyway. Best to give him permission to abandon his mission before he does so of his own volition and looks to pin the blame on Obi-Wan’s shoulders.

“Fine,” he says. “Fine, you may contact him. Tell him I’ll be in the Room of Some 30 Odd Fountains, meditating. He’ll know what I mean.”

And it’s truly a mark of how dire the situation is that Healer Che does not point out that she is not his messenger nor his secretary. Instead she inclines her head, and shows him out of her office, smile falling gracefully into an unreadable expression, tinged with sorrow. 

Not without empathy, but without pretense.

—------------

“Do you think Skywalker knows I’m still listed as your emergency medical contact?” Vos asks, dropping into the empty seat across from Obi-Wan and immediately leaning forward to steal his drink. “Because if he doesn’t, I think I’m best suited to break the news myself.”

“I do not wish to speak about Anakin Skywalker,” Obi-Wan says, stealing his drink back from Vos’ wandering hands and downing it in one go.

Pettiness is not pre-ordering—or ever planning to order—this hot AF Obi-Wan because it reminds you that Obitine is a thing…in canon.

There are very few arcs/additions to the Star Wars world I deplore more than this one. In fact, I think this may be at the top of my list for two reasons:

One- it is completely unnecessary; unnecessary to make a dying/dead woman another strength to Obi-WAN’s character. He had already shown that through every single other relationship he had in Star Wars: repeating it only cheapened him and Satine. She should have been her own character.

Two- Satine and Obi-Wan are not a foil to Anakin and Padme; it is an impossibility. While Padme was Anakin’s deepest attachment- Satine was never Obi-Wan’s. She couldn’t be. He loved Padme equally, and Qui-Gon even more. But even those two cannot hold a candle to the attachment he had for Anakin. He told Yoda he could not kill Anakin…even after Anakin killed everyone and everything Obi-Wan knew and loved. He could not kill him even after watching Anakin strangle his pregnant wife. He could not kill him 10 years later after Vader had set him on fire, snapped a child’s neck, killed innocent by-standers, and told Obi-Wan he was going to kill him. He WOULD not kill him…even though physically he very well could. Not only that, but Obi-Wan spent the rest of his life burning in a literal desert- alone- to watch over Anakin’s son. It says in the novel “to watch over Anakin’s son; he could think of no greater honor to the man he had once loved “…or something to that affect. Anakin was, and would be Obi-Wan’s greatest attachment for the rest of his life, and for the eternities in the force. In short, Satine and Obi-Wan representing what Anakin and Padme should have been was never possible…because while Obi-Wan did do right according to the Jedi order by Satine and walked away…he could not follow the Jedi Code when it came to Anakin.

(And please note: while I am an Obikin follower, everything I have said above has nothing to do with romance or sex or anything else that could be construed as inappropriate between a master and an apprentice etc…I am talking about pure, loyal, true, all encompassing love).
