Here’s the quick ficlet I’ve been meaning to write for my favorite Sith Assassin, inspired by the “raised by killer ghosts” line… hope you like it!

Childhood

He runs over cracked, tilting monuments, a slip of a boy more shadow than substance in the dusk light, following a ship as it arcs downward from the sky in a terrible, screeching ball of smoke.

You see, a voice grates through his mind as he jumps from the top of one broken wall to another, following the streak of billowing black across the sullen red of twilight. They were too weak to survive our call. Too weak to live here. Not like you.

The voice made him cry when he was smaller, but he is bigger now. Stronger. In his mind.

Go see if any live. The harsh, rasping syllables only make him clench his jaw, and he narrows his golden eyes as he scrambles up the worn, gigantic face of a long-forgotten ruler half buried in sand and debris.

He is wiry and clever and knows better than to trust the occasional survivors that crawl or limp their way out of the wrecks. They are always afraid of him.

And they should be.

The boy calls out with his fierce, wild heart to the world around him and something bends, reality itself shifting in subtle wisps. They will not see him if he does not wish them to.

They will not know he is there as they frantically search for other survivors or break down and sob. And when the Elders come, after the second moon has risen, they will not know anything.

He used to warn them.

He doesn’t do that anymore. The Elders don’t like that.

When the slaughter is done, he will pick his way through the wreckage and see what he can find.

Tonight, as he settles in atop the skewed hulk of the ship’s cockpit, the simple pleasure of a child awaiting a rare treat shines bright in his eyes. 

Because this survivor, stumbling out into the fading light, wears two lightsabers.

Soon they will be his.

sith au fic idea: weird force shit pulls the sith versions of anakin, obi-wan, and ahsoka into canon during the clone wars

for some reason they can’t back until the war is over, so they end up bunking with the jedi after it’s confimed that they’re from another dimension and aren’t about to kill everyone

and the sith version of obi-wan freaks the order out the most because it’s nearly impossible to tell him apart from the jedi version

the sith version of anakin is noticeably more savage and impulsive, the sith version of ahsoka is cruel in a way the jedi version isn’t, and then there’s sith obi-wan

he speaks and talks and gestures like the jedi version, he has the same sense of humor, the only way to tell them apart is if he drops the glamour concealing the red of his eyes 

the jedi versions of ahsoka and anakin watch this man that looks like their master casually torture and kill and can’t help wondering how much darkness their obi-wan hides

If there is one thing Obi-Wan knows above all else, it is his own capacity for darkness. So when alternate Sith versions of Anakin, Ahsoka, and himself appear, he is the only one not phased. Beyond the reality of parallel universes making literally anything possible, the idea of Obi-Wan being a Sith is rather sensible. All it would have taken was a single step to the left –with Xanatos, or on Melida/Daan, or fighting Maul, or one of the hundred thousand other moments when Obi-Wan has felt himself tempted.

Anakin and Ahsoka are clearly not so comfortable with their darker selves and the Sith are likewise unnerved by their lighter counterparts. The four of them look to be on the precipice of a bloodbath purely on the basis of their differing Force alignments. Obi-Wan resists the urge to sigh. Everyone talks about Sith and Jedi, Dark and Light, as if they are separate species when really all of them are just fallible sentients doing whatever they think is right or necessary. Violence really isn’t necessary in this situation.

Obi-Wan glances over at his counterpart and they share an identical smile. Yes, his Sith self has clearly also come to the conclusion that they are hardly different at all. Certainly less divided than the two Anakins or two Ahoskas. It seems the cooler heads of the two Kenobis must prevail.

“For the sake of minimizing confusion, please call me Venge.”

“Of course, Darth Venge. But only if you call me Obi-Wan.”

“Certainly, Master Kenobi. Thank you for the tea.”

Four sets of eyes stare at them in horror.

(Just wait until the Council hears about this.)

Star wars AU:

where Obi-wan is the Sithlord, and pushes Anakin to the darkside.

I’m perfectly okay with this because Obi-Wan was also coincidentally always there when horrible things happened involving the Sith.

No I am not writing this I’m not I’m not- fuck

Good to know I am not the only one bitten.

It’s not like I haven’t written this enough as it is, oh nooo.

I’ve got it fiddling around in my brain. 

I don’t want to write it though.

…but Obi-Wan becoming the apprentice after TPM and then the master during RotS and then…

shitfuck

I got Obi the full-fledged Sith showing up in TPM, having never been a Jedi at all, and stabbing the fuck out of Maul because Bane’s line is making all the other Sith look bad.

I am so totally supposed to be doing other things right now.

no you should be doing this

this is good

“Qui-Gon…” Obi-Wan explained - or rather, didn’t explain - with a rueful smile at Anakin. “Well. We’ve disowned Dooku for being too… Overt.”

“Overt?” Anakin burst out, and his arm ached with the phantom of a burn.

“Red makes you far too obvious. Flashy will get you killed. Please sit back down, Anakin. If you’re going to be angry for some reason, the least you could do is attempt to focus it. Unfocused rage helps nobody and gets you nowhere. It certainly won’t save Padmé.”

Anakin felt his legs collapse from under him, which at least had the side effect of letting him sit down.

I INSIST THAT THIS ONE ALSO BE CONTINUED.

I wrote 14 pages of this last night.  *Facepalm*

Thought/question: what’s going on with Xanatos in this verse? (Esp. if you’re sticking with re-entry canon over Palpatine’s involvement in his fall.) Fake out to get him in position to do something? Went the same way as Dooku? Palpatine fucked with his head, resulting in Qui-Gon’s lineage going to war with Palpatine’s?

(Mostly, I’m picturing force ghost Xan, showing up in Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan’s dreams a few nights after his death. ‘That nerf-fucking son of a rancor messed with my brain, I’m going to haunt the shit out of the bastard,’ Xanatos swears, flopping down elegantly on a magically appearing lounging chair. ‘He tried to get me to kill you two in the unimaginative, melodramatic way possible, I’m insulted. I have much more class than that, you know that Master.’)

I just have so many *thoughts* about this ‘verse, I don’t even.

The idea of the existence of more then one Sith line is extremely compelling, and gives a texture and dimensionality to Dark Siders that is, in my admittedly amateur opinion, sorely needed with the Jedi’s dark counterparts. Most of the Sith that we see in canon, to a certain degree, two-dimensional - Dark Side = evil, and that’s - basically the entirety of it.

Darth Bane was pretty much the source material for ‘modern’ Sith. The idea of a Sith Line outside of his, with completely different teachings, is fertile grounds for worldbuilding - what would their philosophies be like? Their attitude towards the Jedi? Would they as well be bent on global domination, or have other, less obvious goals? Would they have infiltrated the Jedi Order itself long ago (thus giving a plausible excuse for Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan to be at the Temple if an author’s tastes run in that direction) or exist outside of it?

And the idea of the 'Temple’ Sith Line declaring war against Bane’s Sith Line is - well, it’s one thing Palpatine wouldn’t see coming!

buckygreyjoy replied to your post:

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!

I wanted to draw @deadcatwithaflamethrower‘s Darth Venge in one of these outfits so I did, because Sith lords should look stylish and menacing.

@striketeamvengeance look that!!!!

HOW HAVE I NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE!?!??!  TUMBLR NOTIFICATIONS, YOU  HAVE FAILED ME.

(basically, this is awesome and shiny and pretttyyyy)

eeeeeee

…although, for some reason, I can just see Venge fighting like hell to keep from being forced into one of those outfits. Maybe he needs to threaten/intimidate the holocrons/Force Ghosts of some Ye Old Sith, and part of that is looking the part of a ‘traditional’ Sith Lord, complete with menacing outfit - except Venge really doesn’t want to wear that, thank you.
