arranged marriage au where, to help stabilize a freed tatooine in the galactic scale, anakin agrees to marry a well off republic senator. padmé amidala is the senator in question, highly regarded both in the senate and on her own planet.
so anakin cleans up his little home and is ready to try to swallow his pride at whatever this republic senator is gonna say about his living conditions when they come to pick him up. he wants to start off on a good foot; this is going to be his spouse for the upcoming future, and he wants to like them. anakin wants to maybe fall in love, as impossible as it seems. he’s immediately struck by padmé’s beauty, but his eyes stray to the person standing protectively by her. his spouse to be already had a lover before being strong armed into this marriage, then.
anakin tries to make the best of this new information; he wanted to try to woo his new spouse, divorce not possible in the near future, but now…padmé introduces herself and the man next to her as jedi master, obi-wan kenobi. she happily accepts anakin’s courtship dinner and obi-wan eats it, too. anakin feels his heart pound happily at that fact. maybe he does have a chance in this marriage, after all. maybe he could be their third.
the agreed upon week on tatooine before anakin has to leave for padmé’s home goes so much better than anakin had hoped it would. padmé wants to make this work, too. she happily learns about anakin’s marriage customs, how anakin wants to make his own dress and braid his hair in the style his mother taught him as a child. anakin happily soaks up learning about padmé’s, how a veil is the most important part of the wedding outfit and the spouse to be is supposed to help dress the bride.
obi-wan shares no wedding customs, which anakin thinks is weird. he voices such as it halfway through the week, and obi-wan is shocked. he’s not getting married to anakin? he’s just here as padmé’s bodyguard; tatooine is still fresh from revolution. obi-wan is a jedi; attachment is forbidden. anakin argues; obi-wan’s been eating all the courtship food anakin’s been making, he’s leaned into anakin’s touch, he’s so free touching and kissing padmé’s cheeks. he’s dealt with shmi’s fussing. also, how the kriff is obi-wan not allowed attachment?
padmé feels momentarily terrible about the situation, but then immediately decides to team up with anakin to woo obi-wan. the jedi can suck it up; a three way marriage would strengthen anakin’s planet even more. surely the council can forgive obi-wan for being so compassionate to a freed planet’s plight?

I know I’ve already reblogged this once, but I love it and it just struck me that Obi-Wan is never going to live this down.
“Oh sure, you just *happened* to *accidentally* engage yourself to the hot freedom fighter and the beautiful senator all at once. Who are you trying to kid Kenobi?”
“You’re telling me that one of the Order’s best diplomats failed to realise he was participating in marriage preliminaries? That he didn’t recognise romantic intent?”
And Anakin and Padmé just smirk because these are all excellent points that just go to prove how much Obi-Wan loves them.
I just want the scene where Obi Wan can’t sleep and Shmi gets up and makes tea and they sit there in silence, drinking their tea and listening to the night noises and Obi Wan suddenly blurts out ‘I DIDN’T MEAN TO FALL IN LOVE WITH THEM! IT WASN’T ON PURPOSE!’ and Shmi just smiles and says ‘yes, dear. I know’ and gets up to get the biscuits
I just cracked up laughing imagining the effort it takes Mace Windu to conceal the twitching eyebrows as he gets the report from Obi-Wan.
