16yo Obi-Wan in Legends: Killed 6 men before the age of 14. Fought multiple wars. Left the Jedi Order twice. Was tortured, brainwashed, and brought up on charges before the Galactic Senate.

16yo Obi-Wan in Canon: (✿◠‿◠)  hewwo?

didn't expect ORLA JARENI to be in the Padawan book nor did i expect obi wan to fan girl over her but I am no less ecstatic

[dreamerkath]

Tell me you haven’t read any Star Wars books without telling me you’ve never read any Star Wars books….

"boohoo obi wan was such a stickler as a padawan he was all by the books and wouldn't break a rule to save his life"

my brother in christ. he was the worst one out of his entire lineage. he just learnt to poker face. man stayed behind on child soldier planet as a kid because he told qui gon to fuck off. he has never followed any rule but his own, he just knew how to lie. and also to be a bit more refined about it than his master and padawan

This bit from Kiersten White's 'Padawan' will never be not funny:

Obi-Wan's expectations:

Reality:

The audience:

Obi-Wan, watching Anakin and Padme falling in love like he and Satine did:

I GOT THE SILLY

Also ik my fingers make me look like I’m five I’m 18 lmao I promise I’m just built different ig

Soooooo I was reading the book Padawan by Kiersten White. It's about Obi Wan as a Padawan, and, bro, if Anakin did the things Obi Wan did in this book, he would NEVER hear the end of it from Obi Wan.

Go read this book. Please. It's amazing.

This book is great

Obi-Wan flatly says “Thank you for your unsolicited opinion” to some kid complaining about his padawan braid

Weird & Wonderful Wednesday

Teenage Obi-Wan is an interesting part of Star Wars that we haven’t really seen before. We know really old (and dead) Obi-Wan from the original Star Wars, and, we know the middle aged Obi-Wan from the prequels, so, reading about teenage Obi-Wan was cool and different. There’s a bunch of usual teen angst and not knowing where the teen character is supposed to be sort of story beats in this for sure, but, the author definitely gets to the core of the Obi-Wan character as well, and it was fun to read parts and see the upcoming canon media in this book. A really fun read.

Qui-Gon: Hm... I can see that my 16yo padawan who has never been on a mission in his life is stuck in a mental rut and handicapping himself with self-doubt. What he needs is an excursion into the real world to build confidence and learn to trust the Force in practice, not in theory! Take him on his first mission myself? Nah. I think a better idea is to engineer a scenario where he thinks I've abandoned him and goes on the mission alone, into danger with zero way of communicating if something goes wrong. Best way to build character.

"The Force isn't something I consume and burn up. It's so much more than just power. It's life. It's connection. It's--it's this." Obi-Wan gestured around the clearing. "It's trying to find the balance, that place between life and death where peace can exist. Being a small part of a great whole.”- Kiersten White, Padawan
