#the added element of anakin convincing himself to also trust and love obi-wan after loving him and resenting him at the same time

[tennessoui]

I just blasted through your selfie!au, and its amazing?? I love it! The angst, the miscommunication, ugh like everything you write/think its immaculate ✨ i was wondering, do you have any headcanons for like, all the times obi-wan accidentally misused the pelt-power? You said that when some one has a pelt, they can control the selkie (sorry not well-versed in their lore), so is there any moments you imagined where Obi-wan accidentally abused it and anakin never said anything? It doesn’t have to be anything serious, bc I imagine obi-wan, since he’s so morally upright, would already be broken up over the smallest infraction.

ack!!! the selkie au!!! i live in shame for that having been written in february for a prompt gifted in november from an idea first talked in october which i promised would be a fic up on ao3 by end of may

as for headcanons for it and specifically the "pelt-power", in most folk lore, the holder of the pelt doesn't have any like---magical mental sway over the selkie. It's more about that with the pelt, the holder controls if the selkie will ever be able to return home. They can't go to the sea again while the holder has their pelt because they would never be one with the sea/of the sea as a human. so they must stay because they have nowhere to go.

that being tragic and something to sit with and ALSO being said, i would definitely be open into adjusting that for a silly lil fanfic, where anakin can't actually be further than a few kilometers from obi-wan & his pelt at any given time and obi-wan jokes that he's never dated someone so clingy and the thing is anakin IS clingy normally but he's also fighting terrible resentment because surely obi-wan must know and surely he's doing this on purpose.......

better acquiesce to obi-wan's every preference/demands (low stakes, such as getting vegetarian food from the fae restaurant for dinner over the werewolf's lamb kebab place, of course)

but oh it would absolutely gut obi-wan when he finds out everything with that added element and completely damage his trust in him because how much of him was just a lie?? just going along with what obi-wan wanted because he felt like he had to???

their relationship would be in absolute tatters. anakin, after he realizes how much he does love obi-wan (holding his pelt in his hands even though it offers no comfort), would have to work on digging obi-wan out of his grave of guilt + the absolute pit their relationship ends in

#like no no there's been this tragic misunderstanding#but it also is tragic for both of them#somehow more tragic than tattooshop au :0#the added element of anakin convincing himself to also trust and love obi-wan after loving him and resenting him at the same time#for so long
