Her eyes have been fixed on him all night, and Obi-Wan can no longer pretend he hasn’t noticed. There something about her that’s both exciting and scary; his rational mind warning him to stay away, but another, more adventurous part he thought he’d hidden away, longs for the woman in the shadows. It longs for the red lips, the black dress and the dark eyes. There’s something hidden behind her smile, something dangerous. Something irresistible.

So when his dance is danced, he walks over to her, searches out that danger he doesn’t realize yet would be both his death and his rebirth.

He smiles at her, and she smiles back, her mouth closed.

‘May I have this dance?’

She laughs, a warm laugh, genuinely almost. ‘I thought you’d never ask.’

Her skin is cold as winter, but her dress is soft and her smile is ever inviting. She dances like she’d had lifetimes to practice, her pale skin reflecting the light of the chandeliers. Isn’t that strange?

It’s a dream-like state.

When the music stops, a second and a lifetime later, her gloved hands take hers, taking him to the balcony, and Obi-Wan no longer even considers protesting.

‘You should meet my husband.’

When the doors close, the music is no longer more than a faint echo. And there he is, a man cloaked in darkness, lowering his hood to reveal himself – handsome and young, with golden curls and full lips. When he smiles at him, his mouth open, his sharp teeth revealed, he’s not even scared.

‘Hello,’ he says.

‘Hello.’

If this is a nightmare, a dream about the monsters of the night, it is the sweetest. He doesn’t back down as Anakin comes closer, when he strokes his cheek and asks:

‘Do you want forever?’

‘Yes,’ he whispers back. ‘I do.’

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?

Morag laughs.

Laughs in Palpatine’s increasingly enraged face. Laughs until her sides hurt and she’s nearly bent double with the force of the hilarity wracking her frame. Laughs until she’s sobbing for breath - because that is simply one of the most ridiculous things she’s ever heard.

Laughs, because she knows that it wouldn’t have made one fucking bit of difference if she’d kept Obi-Wan instead of sending him to the Temple. Palpatine would still have launched his take-over. Would still have been willing to wade through blood and over corpses to achieve his goals. Would still have managed, by hook or by crook, to malign the Jedi on the galactic stage - the people who are even now cursing the Jedi? If they are foolish enough to believe that the Jedi would ever have turned against them, they would have believed as such eventually anyway.

But Obi-Wan, as a Jedi, has helped people. Has saved worlds. Has been - and still remains - a light in dark places. And for all that both mother and son are imprisoned, Palpatine does not have them.

au where padme lives and raises her two children thinking that anakin died on mustafar and works behind the scenes in the rebellion

and anakin/vader thinks that he killed padme

and they both think the other is dead and vader hates the shadowy leader of the rebellion and padme hates the emperor’s black-suited attack dog

i just have a lot of ideas about this idk

Obi-Wan, exchanging a long glance with the camera a la The Office. “Skywalkers.”

obianidalasuggestion:

Obi-wan and Anakin cuddling on a couch together. “I have to tell you a secret,” Obi-wan says, snuggling closer to whisper in Anakin’s ear: “I’m in love with your wife.”

“You know,” Anakin replies dryly, “I think I kind of figured that out when you married us, you ridiculous man.” He smiles and leans in to kiss his husband.

“Anakin.” Padme tells the younger man seriously as she perches on his lap. “I need to tell you something.” She leans forward. “I’m in love with your husband.”

Anakin nuzzles her ear. “Wanna know a secret?” He responds, grinning. “So am I.”

okay folks help me write

these are the aus I have buzzing around my head

- The Grief Verse - Darth Vader was a clone of Anakin Skywalker, then they find Anakin Skywalker, everyone cries

- Fly Hard - Anakin is the John McClane of the Star Wars universe and he’s so sick of this shit, he can’t even tell you

- ‘The World Has Turned Around Again’ - Anakin is caught in a loop of the worst day of his life

- ‘How To Make Friends And Save The Galaxy: The Anakin Skywalker Method’ - Anakin starts reading self-help books, saves everyone and Annoys Obi Wan

OK OK the third one. Is this like an Order 66-As-Groundhog Day AU? Anakin keeps waking up to the same song on his alarm clock, etc? He has to keep re-doing the day over and over until he FINALLY gets every single sequence of events “right” and the universe is saved?

HOLY CRAP, this is hilarious and I love this. Oh man. I have Thoughts. So like, there goes Obi-Wan, off to fight Grievous, and Anakin has to find a way to talk him out of it so that he can keep his buddy by his side and Fight Evil. 

He tries SO. MANY. TIMES. Forcibly holding him back. Feigning an illness. Kissing him passionately on the mouth. Spilling out everything about Palpatine and the War and Pregnant Padme to try and convince him to stay (Obi-Wan assumes Anakin’s had a nervous breakdown that time around due to war-related stress, and Anakin ends that version of the day in a Jedi Hospital.) 

Also I feel like Anakin probably ends up fucking up and ending up as a Darksider a good percent of the time, and then – BAM – he wakes up back at the beginning again, all “…oh shit, I became Darth Vader again that time. Ugh. What is wrong with me?”

YES THAT
except there’s also the days he snaps and kills everyone just in case that works, the days he gets therapy because why the fuck not, the days he graffitis the Temple, the day he kissed Mace Windu just to see the look on his face…
basically by the time he sorts himself out and figures out what’s needed to be done, it’s been a looooong time

A+++. Oh God, the opportunities for comedy. 

The day he shows up to the Council meeting stark naked. The day he just doesn’t even get out of bed because FUCK THIS HE IS SO SICK OF THIS GODDAMN FUCKING DAY. He dip-kisses Padme in front of the Senate. 

The day he finally gets it right takes ages to construct. He’s speechless when he wakes up the next morning (finally, blessedly ON THE ACTUAL NEXT DAY) next to his pregnant, peacefully-sleeping wife (and possibly also Obi-Wan,) with the newspaper on Padme’s apartment doorstep proudly proclaiming ANAKIN SKYWALKER EXPOSES CORRUPT CHANCELLOR, BALANCES FORCE.

What I’m trying to say is I like this idea.

Y’ALL I’VE BEEN PINING FOR THIS FIC FOR MONTHS IN THE TAGS just imagine that post with Palps starting it on that “Have you heard of Plagueis the Wise?” speech and GoundhogDay!Anakin, out of fucks to give, just fucking slaying him with that quippant “Ya the Jedi Archives say his apprentice is a lil bitch” PLEASE

This is such a great fic idea because there can be the ACTUAL overall story (i.e. how Anakin gets stuck on the same day, and has to keep getting better at it until eventually he saves the galaxy,) but it can ALSO spin off ENDLESS additional side fics about any given ONE of the “repeated” days: 

The day Anakin goes to the Council meeting and gives a huge speech detailing out every single thing the Council doesn’t know yet, and how “by the end of the day I’m gonna be a Sith Lord and you’ll all pretty much be dead” while everyone is just like 😐 while occasionally casting side glances at Obi-Wan because CONTROL YOUR PADAWAN HIS BRAIN HAS OBVIOUSLY BROKEN

The day he dramatically drops to one knee and asks Obi-Wan to marry him because he’s seriously running out of ideas to get him to NOT leave to kill Grievous and he figures it’s worth a shot (he actually attempts this a few times: one time they end up in a fistfight, three or four times Obi-Wan nearly dies of embarrassment and ends up leaving anyways because he’s like “um ok that is…very nice, I guess, Anakin…but I still have to go save the Galaxy, can we talk about this later?” and one time they actually DO get married but the galaxy still ends up ruined, in part because Anakin gets so distracted with the whole eloping-to-Space-Vegas thing that he forgets to save the rest of the universe from darkness. Oops.)

The day he goes to find Ahsoka and Rex, and ends up fighting Robo-Maul on Mandalore, with Hilarious Results. 

The day Anakin just flat-out quits everything and teaches himself guitar (he gets pretty good and writes terrible songs)

He shaves his head, but does everything else 100% the same. Somehow things end up going even worse than they did in the original canon story. (He’s so pissed. He was SURE he was on to something there.)

“He shaves his head”! Lol Padme probably just kicks him out of her apartment and closes the door in his face and the day goes downhill from there.

He gets so bored that he spends several same-day weeks shadowing Mace Windu to know every seconds of his day, only to then spend a loop following him and narrating out loud everything that happens to him a few seconds before it does, just to freak him out.

He probably has the “I’m reliving this day” argument with Obi-Wan over and over again until one day he convinces him unexpectedly. By saying all Obi-Wan’s responses with him. And correctly predicting when Mace Windu will sneeze down to the second.

He kills Palpatine. The day resets. He kill Palpatine again, deals with the contingency plan triggered with his death, and triggers another. Reset. There’s like, thirty layers of contingencies, including that really creepy Palpatine clones, in three different places across the Galaxy

He kills the Separatist Council and takes over the Confederacy, only to announce that his terms for peace. It’s a three-way marriage to unite CIS, Republic and Jedi Order. The funniest thing, after the twentieth repeat or so, his manifesto gets eloquent enough that people start taking him seriously.

He finally kills Palpatine for good, deals with ALL of his backup plans, and then the day resets ANYWAY. So he does it again, but this time declares himself Emperor and forces the Senate to pass a bill banning sand.
