on the other hand, though: borderline feral ripped af Dark Side Obi-Wan Kenobi in black leather while Anakin desperately tries to get through to him before one of them has to kill the other.
LIKE, I’M JUST SAYING.
My mind is kinda going ‘mmmh yes good maybe we should write this’.
Like, Palpatine sweeping in and taking Obi-Wan off that hell hole Ventress left him in to die.
When he was trapped in the dark side mask and unable to feel anything or perceive anything.
And then just taking a step further and through some esoteric Dark Side technique ripping all that makes Obi-Wan himself out of his head, force-creating a bond between them that allows him to command Kenobi from distances.
Just stuffing him in black leather, slap a mask on his face, throw a hood over his hair and send him to Dooku “This is your new assassin, Darth Tyrannus, do put him at work”
Turning the tide of the Clone Wars into an even more horrific mess and bringing forth a desperate need for more clones.
While Anakin wallows in anger and fury for the death of his Master, while the clones who were so loyal to Obi-Wan now have to serve under other masters and can’t help but resent them, resent their inefficacy, resent the losses.
Resent and hate that damn monster in a mask who takes so many of their fellow clones lives, who turns planets dark, who is the bell of your doom brought to ring when you see him coming down the ramp of a ship.
And then Anakin finally meets him and he wasn’t supposed to meet him, but it’s Anakin and he does what he wants and not what he’s told and since they lost Kenobi he’s been wilder than ever, impossible to control if he thinks he has a trail to whoever took or killed his Master.
Anakin who hasn’t been Knighted because he never got over his conviction that Obi-Wan was alive, is alive, somewhere, still, never lost hope and burned incandescent to find him.
The mask is damaged, the mask comes off and everyone but the assassin freezes because they know those hair, now long and braided to the side, and they know that face and it’s not a cry, not one alone.
It’s “Master!” and “General!” and “Kenobi!” and golden eyes looking at them, a frown on the face, a voice, rough and scratchy and ruined and unused for so long, that rasps out in a low, high Coruscanti accent.
“Who the hell do you think I am?”
And then he’s swinging again, back in the fray, but Anakin cannot, Cody cannot, Rex cannot.
The shots go wide, they turn into warning shots, clone hesitate and pay the price and Anakin is screaming and begging and something, something cracks right there and then.
But the assassin still flees.
And now you have padawan Skywalker and the 212th and the 501st in pursuit and they are going to turn off their comms and they are going to stop at nothing.
Because they took their General, they took his Master and made him into a Sith mockery of the man but he is alive and they will get him back.
The Dark Side just fucked up royally.
Welcome to the glory that is Winter Soldier Obi-Wan!
