I wish Jedi Temple guards had lore that like...made sense.

Why would they need to be completely anonymous?

Does that mean that certain races are excluded from the position, since a Wookie guard would be pretty hard to anonymize?

If they have to be completely anonymous, why isn't Cin Drallig anonymous?

How on earth do they maintain any kind of security if they're anonymous? Isn't that a pretty big security hole in and of itself, being unable to identify your security personnel?!

Constructing a personal lightsaber with your very own personal Force-bonded crystal is supposed to be a big deal, but Temple Guards, these supposedly important people who deal with some of the greatest challenges and the people most likely to get into a lightsaber fight during peacetime, get generic-issue sabers?

How do they manage to be completely anonymous in a house of psychic space wizards?

So if they're anonymous they don't take Padawans, right? So the body of Guard-specific knowledge...dies with them and doesn't get passed on?

I feel like they invented all the story for these guys solely to service the Grand Inquisitor's history and never did any figuring on whether any of it made sense.

I saw you used to dislike Obi/Ani but you don't anymore.

I'm not an anti idm what you ship I'm just curious how it happened

Hi! It's pretty much just, "I watched The Clone Wars and got smacked in the face with how they did not act like I thought they would." When I first stumbled back into Star Wars, it had been a very long time since I'd been into it, probably since a bit before AOTC came out, and so I was originally a Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan shipper. You could pretty much go down the line of Hot Takes Of SW Fandom and I bought into all of them--the Jedi were stagnant and brought about their own downfall, Anakin was kind of abused by them and not responsible for his own actions, Obi-Wan was Anakin's dad, the prequels were bad movies, Hayden Christensen's acting was terrible, etc. I was on all those trains. Then I just. Watch The Clone Wars. "Huh," I thought. "Obi-Wan's actually kind of trying to help Anakin here and Anakin's not listening." I watched some more. "Wow," I thought. "That is some very flirty dialogue they have going there. 'Study the bottom of my boot!' and 'Two steps forward and you'd be kissing it.' really??" I watched even more. "Wait," I thought. "The Jedi seem like they're actually right about a lot of this stuff, the Force and politics and the Separatists are actually going to kill everyone if they don't fight back and the Force really does need you to be calm and the dark side is in all of us but it's something you have to let go of." And then I started watching George Lucas interviews. "Ohhhhh," I thought. "The Jedi ARE right about 97% of everything and Anakin DID have help offered and chose to push them away because he was too afraid and didn't want to live a life that accepted things were transient and impermanent." Ultimately, it just comes down to that I never had any moral or ethical objection to Obikin, I just didn't feel the chemistry was right for me. But I watched more of The Clone Wars, I went back to the movies and saw ohhhhh no those two do not feel like they see each other as father and son to me, however, I do feel that from Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan now (ehhhh sort of), so that one's squicky to me now, personally, but I get Obikin. (And I still have no moral or ethical objection to Q/O, I get why people ship it, they see it differently than I do. I get why people are squicked by Obikin, they see it differently than I do! Both are are valid positions to have.) It helped that the Obikin part of fandom was very fun and there's a lot to be made of the Mustafar fight feeling like a big, dramatic divorce, that there are moments from official creators (like Stover's novelization or Gillard's interviews or even some of the things Lucas says about their narrative roles in the bigger story) that just sort of all helped ease the way further, but primarily it was just: Man, those two flirted in TCW and it tickled my brain chemistry real good.

Inspection (TCW oneshot)

I CAN SHARE MY SW WRITING NOW >:D I wrote this story literally years ago, but it's one of my favorites and I'm proud of it. So. :)

Summary: When Anakin receives word that a team sent by the senate is coming to inspect his fleet per protocol, he isn’t particularly thrilled. In an attempt to dodge dealing with the team, Anakin decides to instruct his Padawan in the responsibilities of being a general by ordering her to be General Skywalker for the duration of the inspection.

I.e. Anakin and Ahsoka swap roles and chaos ensues.

The bridge of the Resolute was quieter than usual. Many clones sat at stations, sifting through information listlessly. A few stood towards the back, equally engrossed in their work on some data pads. The Force hummed along with the destroyer’s engines. It was a calm end to a calm day.

Anakin hated it.

The Jedi general leaned heavily against the holoprojector at the back of the bridge. His fleet had been stuck in the same plot of space for the past week and he was about to lose his mind. They had pushed the Separatists out of Republic territory and needed to press the offensive, but the senate had suddenly decided that the best strategy was a solid defense.

In other words, they just didn’t want to do anything. Anakin had heard from the most recent HoloNet report (he didn’t care to keep track of senate affairs, but at this point it was his best way of seeing what Padmé was up to) that the senate was frantically trying to draft a new bill that would aid in the war’s funding. He didn’t know much about it, but he knew it meant that they would basically be grounded until the useless morons could come up with the money required to continue the war.

Anakin curled his lip in disgust. He was positive the Separatists weren’t having the same problems. It wasn’t like the senate couldn’t get the money somehow. They just needed to decide upon it and then kriffing do it!

The room spun, and Anakin’s skull felt like it was being pinched by impossibly powerful fingers. He bit back a moan and closed his eyes, leaning forward some more. He’d been staring at the same holograms all kriffing day, watching as reports from the Strategic Information Services trickled in with the latest updates on Separatist activity. He was chomping at the bit to get going, and he’d figured he could spend his time strategizing how best to eliminate all the fleets he saw sitting around waiting to be destroyed. He’d come up with at least four different plans in that time.

Blast it, he couldn’t stand this much longer. When he wasn’t strategizing, he was tinkering; when he wasn’t tinkering, he was sparring with Ahsoka or by himself; when he wasn’t sparring, he was tearing up his boots and the floor by pacing endlessly in the observation deck. He hadn’t slept in roughly two days (at least he thought it had been two days – all nighters made one day blur into the next to a point where he’d lost track). He needed to move, he needed to do something!

Restraining a growl of frustration, Anakin pulled away from the holoprojector (and quickly tried to ignore the sudden wave of dizziness) and headed towards the exit.

“General Skywalker.”

Pausing, Anakin turned and saw Adm. Yularen approaching him. A small flare of hope dared to light itself in his mind, and he faced the man fully. “Yes, admiral?”

“We’ve received a message from command, sir,” the admiral informed him. Anakin’s hope brightened exceptionally, and he nearly interrupted the man to ask where they were being sent when Yularen continued, “We’re expecting an inspection team from the senate. They should arrive by the start of the day cycle at 0600. I’ll send further details in writing, sir.”

An inspection?! What?! How the blazes was that going to help anything?! Anakin clenched his jaw, biting his tongue. He flinched and nodded in acknowledgement, exiting the bridge wordlessly.

After storming to an empty hangar, Anakin pulled out a data pad and looked at the information sent to him. He grew steadily more annoyed as he read through it, and eventually he found himself rearranging the entire hangar in a fit of energy.

Ahsoka stumbled upon her master as he was moving all the extra storage crates from one end of the hangar to the other for the fourth time. The rather loud clanging noises the crates made when they were unceremoniously dropped had caught her attention in the first place, as well as the ripples through their slowly forming training bond. It had been five months since she’d become his Padawan, and she was fairly certain she’d never seen him go this stir crazy. Then again, she’d never really seen him have to sit still for so long – Ahsoka herself had been sent back to the Jedi Temple on multiple occasions while her master had remained on the battlefront, much to her annoyance.

“Master?” she asked softly as Anakin kicked a defiant crate into its proper spot. “What’s wrong?”

Anakin faced the stack for a while and then sighed heavily, turning around to look her in the eye. “We’ve got an inspection coming.”

Ahsoka nodded. “I know; Adm. Yularen sent a message out to everyone a few minutes ago. We’re not in trouble, right?”

“No,” her master replied, running a hand through his hair.

Ahsoka shrugged. “Well, at least it’ll be something different; we’ve been doing nothing for the past week.”

Anakin grumbled under his breath, and his padawan gave him a funny look in response.

“What’s so bad about the inspection if it’s not because we’re in trouble?” she asked.

Anakin huffed. “This inspection is just the senate pretending to be doing something productive.”

“What do you mean?”

“The entire military is basically grounded until the senate can free up more funds,” Anakin explained, growing angrier as he said it; he couldn’t believe he was talking such nonsense with his Padawan when he should be instructing her on more important things. He wasn’t mad at her so much as the situation, and it was just making his headache worse. “Because of this, it makes it seem like we’re not doing anything to fight the Separatists—which is absolutely true. So, the senate wants to make themselves look good and keep the people happy by sending inspection teams out to put up appearances and act like they’re actually doing something—ensuring proper protocol and all that bantha poodoo. It’s ridiculous and pointless.”

“It’s something different,” Ahsoka argued with a shrug. “And on top of that, it’s a new pair of eyes to look everything over. Don’t you always say we should use everything as an opportunity for improvement?”

“Terrific; you just volunteered yourself to go over all the reg manuals,” Anakin quipped cheerfully.

Ahsoka pouted. “Come on, Master, why me?”

“Because you’re the Padawan.”

The Togruta teenager grew annoyed. “Fine. I will review them, and I’ll show you that this isn’t a big deal.”

“Let me enlighten you to the delights of inspections, Snips,” Anakin said, walking over to her. Adopting a flawless Coruscanti accent with just the right amount of snobbery to it, he demonstrated what was to come. “I see the lighting in this area is rather bright for the night cycle; do you have it at twenty-five percent capacity, as protocol dictates? You know how important it is to follow energy protocols. And tell me, are these crates stacked in alphabetical order? And—”

“It can’t be that bad,” Ahsoka rolled her eyes and crossed her arms, giving him her typical you’re exaggerating look.

Anakin crossed his arms in retaliation. “Yes, it is.”

The two Jedi had a glaring contest for a few seconds before Anakin was suddenly struck with an epiphany. A mischievous smirk crossed his face, and his body was filled with energy. “You know what? You’re right. It isn’t that bad… in fact, I think anybody could handle it.”

Ahsoka looked a little suspicious, hesitant to acknowledge Anakin’s sudden backtracking. Her expression amused her master to no end.

“Ahsoka, you’ve given me a great idea,” Anakin continued, and Ahsoka’s suspicion only increased. “I think it’s time you start taking on greater responsibilities. From this point forward until the inspection is completed, you’ll be the general in charge.”

Ahsoka blanched. “What?”

“You heard me,” Anakin encouraged, his smile widening. “You’ll be Gen. Skywalker to the inspection team.”

“What’ll that make you?” Ahsoka asked.

Anakin considered it. “I’ll just be some lackey on the ship making sure things are running—”

“You’ll be my Padawan,” Ahsoka interrupted, putting her hands on her hips and mirroring her master’s previous mischievous smile.

Now it was Anakin’s turn to give her a startled look. “What?”

“Well, everybody knows that Gen. Skywalker has a Padawan,” Ahsoka explained as if she were giving him a briefing. “The Separatists and Republic alike have heard of the great exploits of Commander Ahsoka Tano.”

Anakin furrowed his brow, skeptical and exasperated. “They know me, Snips. Even if they do know you, it’s just as my subordinate.”

Ahsoka’s eyebrow twitched in annoyance. “They still know about me, then. So I, as General Anakin Skywalker, have to have a Padawan to save my sorry asteroid.”

Anakin could practically hear Obi-Wan griping about Ahsoka’s language, and he knew she’d picked it up from him and the troops. Amusement trickled through him, but it was squished by irritation at her remark. She would pay for that. “Fine. I’ll be your precious Padawan who knows nothing but what her brilliant master taught her.”

“Great!” Ahsoka acknowledged, stiffening. Then her irritation dissolved, and the Force rang with delight. “Now all we have to do is switch outfits.”

Anakin jumped. “What?! I’m not wearing your clothes!”

“I think the leggings would look good on you,” Ahsoka laughed. “Or the top.”

Anakin huffed. “I’ll wear your battle armor, thanks.”

“No, we’re not in battle.”

“I’m not wearing a tube top!”

Ahsoka lost all composure at the thought of it, irritating Anakin all the more.

“You still have to wear the beads, though,” she eventually said, pushing past the argument.

Anakin restrained a sigh. “All right, all right, hand them over.”

Smiling triumphantly, Ahsoka removed her Padawan braid and held it out for him to take. Then she paused, realizing that he wouldn’t have anywhere to hang it, and she took off her entire headdress. Anakin, who had been hoping she wouldn’t come to that conclusion, was all the more annoyed for it. He snatched it irritably, but he refused to put it on just yet.

“So what are we going to do?” Ahsoka asked, suddenly serious. “I mean, when the team arrives everybody will introduce us as Master and Padawan… and it’s not like the records don’t talk about what we look like or our genders or anything.”

“Relax, Padawan,” Anakin assured her. “These people are coming from the senate; they’re not military. The only information they’re armed with are regulations.”

“They’ll also be armed with whatever HoloNet’s been spouting,” Ahsoka pointed out. “And I don’t think they haven’t mentioned your gender.”

Anakin waved a careless hand. “Propaganda, my dear Padawan. SIS wanted to make sure the Seps couldn’t figure out who the real threat was.”

“Master.”

“Yes?”

“No, I mean you should say my dear Master,” Ahsoka corrected him, smiling slyly and crossing her arms. “You are my Padawan, after all.”

Anakin felt his eyebrows twitch in annoyance and he huffed. “Not yet.”

“You said from this point until the inspection is complete.”

“I’m amending it,” Anakin frowned. “From the point just prior to the team’s arrival until the inspection’s complete.”

“That could be anytime,” Ahsoka put her hands on her hips, arguing her point. “The inspection—”

“Isn’t until tomorrow,” Anakin pointed out, satisfied that he had gotten the upper hand once more. “So best study the reg manuals, Padawan.”

Ahsoka huffed and turned to leave. “Fine. I’ll see you in the morning, Padawan.”

Anakin grumbled and wandered over to his ship, tinkering on it. Artoo eventually joined him and the two silently worked through the night. When his chronometer read 0530 Anakin finally pulled away and cleaned himself up for the day, heading to the bridge to spread the news about the new arrangements for the inspection.

Ahsoka was already there, dressed in her battle armor and wearing her Jedi robe with the hood drawn to hide her youth. She was currently spouting orders to Yularen, who was looking both baffled and irritated, while Rex stood a fair distance away trying to hide a smirk of amusement. When the admiral noticed Anakin’s arrival, he approached him.

“Sir, your Padawan stated that you two are… switching identities for the duration of the inspection?” Yularen said, questioning Ahsoka’s words. Anakin was slightly annoyed that the officer would doubt Ahsoka or think she would make such a silly remark without Anakin’s permission, but he supposed he shouldn’t blame the man too much; neither Master nor Padawan was exactly the orthodox pinnacle of obedience and decorum.

“She’s right,” he confirmed with a small nod. “You are to address her as Gen. Skywalker so long as the inspection team’s here.”

“And he’s Cdr. Tano,” Ahsoka called cheerfully from where she stood. “Speaking of which, my young Padawan, shouldn’t you be wearing your braid?”

Anakin sighed heavily and pulled out the headdress. Rex’s smirk grew and he coughed harshly, looking away and covering his face with his hand. Anakin felt his cheeks flush, and he held back some foul Huttese remarks as he laid the item over his forehead, trying to put it in a spot where it wouldn’t slide around. Yularen, on the other hand, looked more exasperated than ever.

“Sir, may I remind you that the inspection team will be expecting to speak to the real Gen. Skywalker?” he asked, his voice a little tight from annoyance.

“The real Gen. Skywalker is right there, admiral,” Anakin said stubbornly, pointing to Ahsoka. “If you have any concerns over the inspection, you should address her, not me.”

“Sir,” a clone called from farther into the bridge. “The inspection team has arrived. They’re asking for permission to board.”

Deny permission deny permission deny permission Anakin mentally begged, even though he knew that would be pointless.

“Permission granted,” Adm. Yularen sighed, apparently resigned to his fate. “Guide them to Hangar 12.”

Anakin exhaled slowly, trying to release his frustration to the Force as Obi-Wan had taught him. Instead he felt it morph into amusement as he glanced at his Padawan. Well, it got rid of the irritation in either case.

“Master,” he called in a sing-song tone. “Shouldn’t you go meet the team in the hangar? I’m sure they have plenty of questions for you.”

Ahsoka smirked. “Of course I should, Padawan, but you should come along. After all, it’s your first inspection; you have so much to learn about it. In fact, since I have such important matters to attend to—”

“Capt. Rex, won’t the team be expecting the general?” Anakin interrupted to prevent Ahsoka from throwing the responsibility back onto him without the perks of being the man in charge. He would not let this plan backfire.

Rex looked like he’d rather be kept out of this feud, but he did agree with Anakin, smiling apologetically at Ahsoka. “The commander’s right, sir. The team will be expecting you.”

Ahsoka frowned, defeated, but not put out. “Very well. Come along, Padawan.”

Anakin followed her cheerfully and the two silently made their way to the hangar in question. When they entered the shuttle had already landed and the ramp was just lowering. The people disembarking were not clones, nor did they look military in the slightest; their clothing made them look more like techs or aides, which was no great surprise to Anakin. A real inspection team would have had clones and would have never been sent by the senate – it would have been sent by military command.

The one in charge, a male red-skinned Twi’lek, approached both Jedi, looking between the two. It was apparent that he did not know the physical description of either person he was going to meet, and Anakin immediately knew they could pull this plan off.

Everyone was silent for a millisecond, and Anakin gently nudged Ahsoka with the Force, reminding her that as the general she was to start the conversation.

Ahsoka flinched a little but quickly covered it, smoothly saying, “Welcome aboard the Resolute. I’m Gen. Skywalker, and this is my wonderful Padawan, Ahsoka Tano, without whom I could have never accomplished all the victories under my belt.”

Anakin glared irritably at his master.

The Twi’lek grew confused. “I was under the impression that Gen. Skywalker was a man. And aren’t you both a little young to be a general? Where is Skywalker?”

“Are you doubting our competency?” Anakin blurted before he could stop himself, rising to his full height and glowering at the inspector. “Need I remind you that our fleet is among the most successful in the entire military?”

“We’re not here to deduce how many victories you have achieved,” the Twi’lek snapped. “And your competency is in question until we can confirm otherwise. That is the purpose of this inspection.”

“Forgive my Padawan,” Ahsoka quickly said. “He tends to be a little defensive. I think all he was trying to say is that you shouldn’t make such assumptions.”

Anakin raised an eyebrow in her direction, surprised at her self-control; he knew how much remarks about her age bothered her. Then again, his surprise disappeared when she added, “After all, even a Jedi youngling could defeat all of you. Rank is based on skill.”

It took all his energy to not laugh out loud. The Twi’lek flushed, annoyed at the remark.

“So now that we’ve got that cleared up, where would you like to start?” Ahsoka continued, radiating satisfaction at shutting the man up. “My Padawan can take you wherever you need to go.”

Anakin jumped. What? No, no, no, he was not letting her slip out of her responsibilities that easily. “I’ll happily escort you wherever needed, inspector. My Master is very busy and must return to the bridge, but I’m sure that’s the first place you’ll want to check anyway. Chain of command and all, right? I wouldn’t know too much about anything anyway; after all, I’m just the Padawan.”

If looks could kill, Ahsoka would have shredded Anakin into tiny pieces. But looks couldn’t kill, and even if they could, his smug confident smirk would have deflected anything she could toss at him.

“I have many questions for you and the admiral, general,” the inspector said, his body rigid from the earlier insult. “Your Padawan will not suffice.”

“Aw, too bad,” Anakin sighed, though he couldn’t muster up any regret in his tone. “Well, I’ll hold down the bridge, then. Have fun, Master!”

“We’ll go to the bridge first,” Ahsoka immediately said, grabbing Anakin’s arm. “That way you can learn as much as possible, Padawan. Though really, I do think you guys could just ask him – Ahsoka is an extremely intelligent and insightful Padawan, and oftentimes I find myself marveling at how much he can do. In fact, I doubt this ship would run so well without him!”

“Everything I know, I learn from you, Master,” Anakin rebutted with as much convincing charm as he could, though it came out through gritted teeth. “After all, you know far more than I do.”

“Nonsense!” Ahsoka shook her head dramatically. “You’ve been tossed around so much between different masters that you’ve picked up far more experience than I could ever impart.”

“What is that supposed to mean?” Anakin almost snapped before he bit his tongue to save face; he’d rather have Ahsoka bashing him a little than have to guide the team through their mind numbing tasks. He would make sure she paid for this, though.

The inspection team watched curiously with a touch of suspicion, and both Jedi quickly realized they were slipping at their little game. Clearing her throat, Ahsoka motioned towards the door. “Shall we?”

As everyone walked to the bridge, the team immediately began to take notes, glancing around the hall and at Force knew what else. Anakin rolled his eyes in exasperation, clenching and unclenching his fists in an attempt to release some energy that was quickly broiling in his chest. Ahsoka glanced at the team a little nervously, and she skipped ahead to speak with Anakin privately.

“Is that normal?” she whispered, nodding towards the team’s extensive note taking.

Anakin nodded, scowling. “If they find a speck of dust out of place they’ll report it.”

“Did we have the place cleaned up?”

Her innocent concern was beyond amusing, and Anakin smiled. “Yularen would have handled that. He takes care of all the useless protocol.”

The group reached the bridge and Rex called for attention on the deck. Everyone saluted and remained still.

And continued to remain still.

Anakin cleared his throat loudly.

Ahsoka jumped. “At ease.”

Everyone returned to their stations, and Yularen and Rex approached the group. Yularen nodded to Ahsoka. “General.”

This alone made the team grow confused once more. It appeared they had half convinced themselves that Anakin and Ahsoka were playing some joke on them, but since the admiral was also acknowledging Ahsoka as the general they were beginning to wonder if it actually was the case. Just watching their utter bewilderment was amusing enough, honestly.

“Admiral, this is the inspection team.” Ahsoka introduced them. “Please accommodate them in any way necessary.”

“We still have questions for you, general,” the Twi’lek noted before she could leave.

Ahsoka stiffened, starting to grow annoyed. Anakin smiled happily.

“Gen. Skywalker?”

Anakin turned automatically at the clone’s voice and then froze halfway. Ahsoka, thankfully, also turned.

A moment passed as everyone stared at the clone trooper, who also shifted his gaze between Anakin and Ahsoka. Then Ahsoka said, “What is it?”

“Eh, sir,” the clone said awkwardly, still looking between the two Jedi. “There’s a transmission for you from Gen. Kenobi.”

Anakin’s eyes widened. Shavit shavit SHAVIT—

“Oh. Is it urgent?” Ahsoka questioned, her voice higher than normal, crossing her arms and puffing out her chest in an attempt to look more confident than she felt.

“Well, he was fairly insistent, sir.”

“By all means, general,” the inspector piped in. “Don’t let us interrupt your day to day duties. Your apprentice might be able to answer some questions until you’re finished with Gen. Kenobi.”

Anakin felt his blood curdle even more. What?!

Ahsoka smirked. “You’re very gracious. I’ll take the call in my quarters, trooper.”

“Master,” Anakin interjected. “This sounds urgent. You should take the call here.”

Ahsoka curled her lips in annoyance. Anakin glared at her. He didn’t care if it blew their cover – he was not going to be stuck dealing with this guy and play Padawan. Besides, he could still make this work. Somehow.

“Master Kenobi can wait the few minutes it takes for me to walk to my quarters,” Ahsoka reasoned, trying to cover her reaction and win this fight.

Ahsoka had a lot to learn. Anakin would never give up that easily. “Master Kenobi wouldn’t be calling if it weren’t important. It would be irresponsible to make him wait.”

Ahsoka’s mouth became a thin line. She was cornered and she knew it. The bridge was silent.

“You’re right, Padawan,” she finally conceded, adding, “Like many other times before, you have proven your exceptional wisdom.”

Anakin rolled his eyes. Oh brother. “I learned from the best, Master.”

Rex coughed loudly in the corner. Anakin glared at him.

“Put him through,” Ahsoka told the trooper, getting Anakin’s attention once more.

The holoprojector came to life with a hum, and Anakin and Ahsoka hastily stepped towards it so they would both be in view when Obi-Wan appeared.

The familiar face of Obi-Wan Kenobi materialized, and he glanced at the two. “Anakin.”

Anakin cleared his throat loudly. “Why, Master Kenobi, it’s so good to see you! My master and I were just getting ready for an inspection, but when they said you were calling we figured it had to be urgent.”

Obi-Wan blinked a few times and then furrowed his brow. “Your—your what? A—”

“Anakin must have something important to talk about with you, so I’m going to do my duty as her Padawan and answer some questions for the inspection team. What questions I can, of course, since I have so little knowledge about these affairs—”

“Oh, Padawan, you’re far too humble, you know almost as much as I do!”

“Oh no, no, I would never presume to be that arrogant—”

“Anakin.”

Both Anakin and Ahsoka shut their mouths at the stern tone. Ahsoka lowered her eyes in an admission of guilt while Anakin glared at Obi-Wan defiantly.

Suddenly, Rex piped in. “Commander, I believe the team still needs your help.”

Anakin and Obi-Wan both turned their attention to Rex. Obi-Wan then automatically looked back to Anakin, as if ready to resume his conversation while Ahsoka walked away, but Anakin quickly took the lifeline Rex had thrown him. “Right! I’ll do that.”

Obi-Wan raised an eyebrow, even more baffled, but then exasperation settled on his face and he sighed heavily. Anakin walked towards the inspection team, who looked even more suspicious than ever, but still not quite ready to accuse them of anything.

“So what do you need, Master Kenobi?” Ahsoka asked. Anakin flinched; he addressed Obi-Wan as Master, but he doubted the team would know that.

“Well, I was going to talk to… to you about your report concerning the battle over Ryloth – it needs revision.”

Anakin bit back a groan. Great. The last thing he needed was to give Ahsoka more fuel against him.

Ahsoka crossed her arms, suddenly looking delighted. “Really? I didn’t write the report correctly?”

Obi-Wan stared at Ahsoka for a few moments to see if she would back down from the game, but she stood her ground, making Anakin smile. He sighed. “Your phrasing could use improvement.”

“How so? Did I misspell something again?”

Anakin opened his mouth to retort, whirling on Ahsoka, when he remembered the team watching him and bit his tongue so sharply he tasted blood.

This was ridiculous. He was not going to listen to this. “Master, you know Master Kenobi is really picky and just prefers things written his way.”

Ahsoka only half faced him. “Hush, Padawan. The adults are talking.”

Oh that was it, he was going to kill her—

“Padawan, I do have several concerns about the state of this bridge,” the inspection officer said impatiently.

“I’m sure the admiral can address them,” Anakin snarled with such hostility the man took several steps back.

Thankfully, Adm. Yularen did in fact step in to handle the matter, apparently growing tired of the charade. “What concerns do you have?”

Ignoring the impending boring tirade from the team, Anakin stomped over to Ahsoka, who was trying to encourage Obi-Wan to discuss the report.

“We’ll explain later, Master,” was the only thing he said to Obi-Wan before completely cutting the connection and glaring at Ahsoka. “You’d better watch it, Snips.”

Ahsoka smiled smugly, crossing her arms. “I’m the Jedi Knight. I get to say whatever I want.”

“Is that what you think?” Anakin snapped. This girl needed a reality check – if Anakin could say whatever he wanted—

Well. Maybe he did often state his opinion a little loudly. But he didn’t always—there were times where he held his tongue!

He couldn’t think of any right now, but he knew they’d happened!

“So do you normally mess up your reports?” Ahsoka asked.

“I don’t mess up my reports,” Anakin snarled. “I just don’t write them in a standard fashion.”

Ahsoka laughed. “Can’t say I’m surprised.”

“Pretty sure you have an inspection team waiting for you, general.”

Ahsoka looked over at the team to see them finishing their interrogation of the admiral. She sighed.

“Well, Master, I’d best spend my time in the training area now since you’re no longer busy,” Anakin said loudly as the team approached. “After all, my lightsaber skills are still sorely lacking.”

Ahsoka bristled. “Actually, they’ve improved so much you don’t have to worry about training today. I’m quite impressed with your abilities.”

“Pretty sure I still hold the lightsaber backwards,” Anakin said thoughtfully, stroking his chin and hiding a smirk as Ahsoka grew even more annoyed.

“That’s a certain style of fighting,” she corrected him, and Anakin raised an eyebrow, knowing he’d won this round. She caught herself and faced the team. “I apologize for the delay.”

“Bye, Master!” Anakin chirped happily, rushing for the door.

When he finally reached the hall and the door to the bridge closed behind him, he allowed himself to relax and smile.

I win, Snips.

Elated to be free, Anakin went to the engineering deck and hung out with the clones for several hours as they all tinkered on different parts of the ship. Anakin was particularly engrossed in the hyperdrive alongside Twitch when he sensed Ahsoka approaching.

“Padawan, there you are!”

Pausing from his work, Anakin twisted his torso to look down—he was lying on top of the large hyperdrive after all—at Ahsoka, who stood on the catwalk. He was unpleasantly surprised to see the inspection team with her. However, his amusement returned when he saw the haggard look on Ahsoka’s face – he bet she was sick of dealing with them by now.

“Hello, Master,” he greeted with a knowing smile.

Ahsoka’s eyes narrowed. “I thought you said you were doing lightsaber practice.”

“I did briefly, but I recall you saying I was too good to worry about it today, so then I decided to practice on my mechanic skills. Force knows I need it.”

Ahsoka bristled and then bit her lip to prevent a retort from flying out.

The team leader took this opportunity to pipe in. “I wish to speak to the chief engineer.”

Ahsoka jumped, her eyes widening, and Anakin had to cover his laugh for a cough. Ahsoka knew many of the men in the 501st, but not all of them, and she was particularly unfamiliar with the engineering deck. She had no clue who the chief engineer was.

“Right,” she replied, rubbing her hands together. “Right. The chief engineer.”

Looking around desperately, she pointed to the first clone she saw. “Soldier! Get the chief engineer.”

Anakin curled in on himself, hiding his face from view because he was about to lose it.

The clone, Dune, stared at her awkwardly. “Uh, I am the chief engineer, sir.”

Anakin again coughed, this time in a fit so bad that his head was spinning by the time he was done.

“Well, there you go,” Ahsoka said, embarrassed and likely gesturing to the engineer for the team. “If you’ll excuse me, I need to—attend to important stuff.”

Anakin sensed Ahsoka flee the room and he rolled onto his back, still trying to catch his breath from laughter. Twitch was trying his best to maintain the decorum so typical of clones, but Anakin could tell he was biting the inside of his cheek.

Glancing at his chronometer, Anakin realized it was close to dinnertime. By the time the inspection team finished in the engineering deck, they would either be departing or staying the night, depending on how long it had taken Ahsoka to guide them through the Resolute. Anakin prayed it was the former.

Subtly exiting the area, Anakin headed towards the mess hall and ran into Ahsoka on the way. “Having fun?”

“Shut up,” Ahsoka grumbled. “I didn’t know people could get so picky about the stupidest things.”

Anakin smirked knowingly.

Ahsoka rolled her eyes. “Fine, you were right.”

“Ready for dinner?”

“Yes.”

As they entered the mess, Anakin asked, “So how far along are they?”

“I don’t know. Do they ever shut up?”

Anakin barked a laugh. “Not really, but if you go through all the areas, then you can at least cut them off.”

As the two grabbed their food, the clones acknowledged them with smirks and snickers, and Anakin had to laugh at it all. Today had been crazy.

“How did you like running the ship?” he asked, his stomach tightening at the sight of the rations on his plate.

Ahsoka shrugged. “Hard to tell considering I spent all my time dealing with them.”

“Welcome to the headache of bureaucracy,” Anakin snipped, waving a hand dismissively.

“Regulations are important, though,” Ahsoka tried to reason. “They keep everything universal and they keep people in line.”

“They can also get in the way, and this is a prime example of it.” Anakin corrected her.

Ahsoka bit her lip, looking away uncertainly. “I guess.”

The two sat in silence for a few moments as Ahsoka nibbled on her food while Anakin merely pushed it around with his utensil. Then she asked, “So if the team has to stay the night, does that mean I get to sleep in your room?”

The utensil scraped the plate loudly as Anakin jumped. “What?”

“I mean I’m still Gen. Skywalker right now.” Ahsoka explained, tilting her head to the side and smiling.

Anakin rolled his eyes. “Fine, whatever. Sleep wherever you want.”

“And you can sleep in my room!”

Like I’ll be sleeping. “Sure. Wait—I need my pillow.”

“It’s my pillow now!”

“No, it’s mine!”

“It’s Anakin’s—”

“I don’t want you drooling on it!”

Ahsoka huffed. “I won’t!”

Anakin crossed his arms. “Please. My tunics beg to differ.”

Ahsoka’s orange cheeks darkened in embarrassment, and she didn’t know what to say. Anakin felt a little bad for pointing out that he’d helped her fall asleep and stayed with her during the first month or so of their time together, but it wans’t like it was a big deal, at least not to him. He would be damned if he left Ahsoka feeling lost and alone and terrified in the middle of the night, haunted by nightmares of the battlefield.

Pushing the matter aside, he said, “Just eat your dinner. I’ll grab my pillow.”

Mumbling some kind of reply, Ahsoka lowered her gaze to her plate.

“Anakin.”

Anakin nearly jumped out of his skin alongside Ahsoka as Obi-Wan’s Force presence suddenly appeared out of nowhere just as he heard the clipped accent say his name. Leaping up, his foot caught the bench of the table and he nearly face planted into another table before Obi-Wan caught him.

“Master!” he yelped.

“What in the blazes is going on?” Obi-Wan asked, already sounding resigned to whatever insane plan Anakin had concocted.

“We—we were—what are you doing here?!”

“I was going to tell you that I was en route to your location, but you cut me off.”

Anakin blinked. “Oh. Well. It’s good to see you.”

Obi-Wan gave a small smile and tipped his head in acknowledgement as he steadied Anakin. Then he frowned. “You look terrible.”

Anakin swallowed. How the blazes did Obi-Wan always see through him? “I’m fine.”

“Master and I switched places for the inspection team,” Ahsoka explained with an excited smile, not quite catching the subtle change in conversation.

Obi-Wan gave Anakin an appalled look. “Anakin—”

“Hey, it was a good learning experience for her,” Anakin tried to reason, raising his hands in defense.

“Inspection teams suck,” Ahsoka added helpfully.

Obi-Wan sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose.

“Now let’s talk about that report!” Ahsoka piped up eagerly.

“No, Ahsoka,” Anakin immediately replied. “Finish your dinner. Obi-Wan and I will handle the report.”

Sighing, Ahsoka complied, probably because she was too exhausted from the day to argue any further. Anakin glanced at Obi-Wan and motioned for him to follow. Obi-Wan took a brief look at the table and then accompanied Anakin to the hallway.

“You didn’t eat your dinner,” he remarked.

Anakin rolled his eyes. “It’s fine.”

“I’m fairly certain starvation and sleep deprivation aren’t fine, Anakin.”

“Master,” Anakin begged tiredly, leaning against the wall. “Not now. Please.”

Obi-Wan watched him worriedly and sighed. “All right. Let’s discuss the report. Follow me.”

Reluctantly, Anakin followed his former master, tiredly and confusedly noting where they were going. “This doesn’t lead to the bridge. Or the observation deck. Or… where are we going?”

“Your room.”

“Technically it’s Ahsoka’s room right now.”

Obi-Wan threw an exasperated look over his shoulder. “Should we go to Ahsoka’s room, then?”

Anakin thought about it, scrunching his nose, and then shrugged, too tired to care. Obi-Wan didn’t change direction, and Anakin didn’t argue anymore.

The two continued in silence until they reached the small quarters provided to Anakin aboard the Resolute. It was a standard officer’s room, roughly the same size as his bedroom in the Jedi Temple. A cot was in the far left corner, a dresser along the left wall, and a sink and mirror on the right wall. Obi-Wan pulled at the covers of the cot and looked at Anakin.

“Master,” Anakin grumbled. “I told you I’m fine.”

“We’re going to talk about your report,” Obi-Wan said to appease him. “But you’re going to lie down.”

“But—”

“Now, Anakin.”

Grumbling under his breath, Anakin slipped his boots and belt off and settled on the mattress. At Obi-Wan’s raised eyebrow, he reluctantly slipped his feet under the covers and lowered his head to his pillow. He felt the mattress shift as Obi-Wan sat at the bottom edge. Immediately his eyes felt heavy, and he fought his hardest to keep them open.

“Now, about this report,” Obi-Wan said, his voice suddenly soft as if he were trying to be quiet, “You know you can’t write tricked the idiotic Seppies into believing my surrender so my Padawan could kick their asteroids, right?”

Anakin snorted in a confused response of laughter and cringing. He’d been particularly tired when writing that report and he supposed he’d forgotten to edit it before submitting it. Oops. “I mean it’s not wrong.”

Obi-Wan sighed heavily.

Whatever response his master had in store for him as his eyes suddenly closed and he jumped, rising into a seated position in what felt like a heartbeat.

A warm, gentle hand pressed against his shoulder. “Rest, Anakin.”

“The report—”

“Can wait.”

Trying desperately to find an argument to stay awake, Anakin said, “The inspection team—”

“I’ll handle them,” Obi-Wan assured him softly. “I’m sure you and Ahsoka have done enough damage already, anyway.”

A giggle escaped Anakin’s lips, and he saw Obi-Wan’s face soften at the sound of it. He still didn’t really want to sleep, feeling like he hadn’t accomplished anything the entire time they’d been floating around doing nothing. He’d needed something to do. But now, with Obi-Wan’s warm, familiar, calming presence humming in his mind, he finally let his exhaustion catch up to him. Obi-Wan always managed to quiet his mind, to make the constant drone of life and death that bounced around in Anakin’s mind settle and melt away for a time. And if anything did finally happen, Anakin knew they were all safe with Obi-Wan there.

Or he would wake up to have to rescue him. Either was a possibility.

“Night, Master,” Anakin mumbled, finally succumbing. Something brushed the hair out of his eyes, and he felt the blankets get tucked around his chin. “Good night, Anakin.”

heyyyy so I'm back. been meaning to write here again for a while, but I've had this weird sense of avoidance around it. recently, I've had several kin-related dreams, although none of them have felt like proper memories so far. last night it was about if Feral had lived and gotten sith training. I remember he held a simple red lightsaber in his left hand, and he stood in something between a back stance and a middle stance in taekwondo terms (I don't remember the terminology of lightsaber combat or teras kasi or anything, but I do remember some stuff from tkd classes I took as a kid) - that is, a side-facing stance that made him as narrow a target as possible. he was funny in a nervous kind of way, like he was acutely aware of the physical disadvantage he was at and protected himself with jokes. he had a sort of prey animal fear about him, but he was a bit more confident than he was in tcw, at least. in another life, maybe he'd be the class clown. he was bad at blocking blaster shots with a lightsaber, and I think he knew it, but he tried anyway. this is where the dream gets weird, and I should probably mention that I was an outside/third-person observer up until this point. crosshair from the bad batch (which I haven't watched since around when he got all crispy fried and the fall of tipoca city) showed up and shot him in the neck with a sniper rifle with a scope, and I think it was a slugthrower (aka regular gun with bullets) to boot? this upset me so greatly that I rewound the dream a few seconds and personally tackled him before he could take the shot. (I didn't really get to see what/who I looked like, just a shadowy figure in the first person.)

I don't know if this was an accurate glimpse into his personality, or if I even got the chance to know him before sidious took me for training like some kind of wrinkly sci-fi rumplestiltskin, but I hope I did. the star wars canon can't seem to make its mind up on that, but I suspect I'm already a little canon-divergent - I recall having even, peg-like, sharp teeth, but I recently noticed that screenshots don't seem to reflect that. idk, I don't really like looking at pictures of myself. ok I just double-checked and seeing myself with human teeth truly is cursed. I have lost my train of thought goodbye

Goddamn, Shaak Ti is so pretty

hat-based violence

So where's the AU fanfic where Palps actually does get killed here

These guards are NOT indexing, smh @ this inadequate trigger discipline

Apparently the Festival of Light is the anniversary of Naboo's entry into the Republic 847 years ago, and Theed used to be "plasma mines"

Like Anakin, Obi-Wan is also on a first-name basis with Mace

...Hardeen did literally nothing here

I feel like this one is obvious, but it's never a good tactical move to have your gun in range of someone's arms. The Pro Gunfighter thing is actually to use a silly little T-rex arm grip in close-quarters, but you never see that one on TV because it looks much goofier than sighting "down the arm"

Obi-Wan is (or at least shoots) ambidextrous? He comes up on Bane with the gun in his left hand in spite of the fact that he had time to switch

Like, I'm so much more invested in the Obi-Wan/Anakin conflict when Anakin isn't portrayed as an obnoxious brat pretending that he's not in a war. He's got more of a point here than he has in every fanfic take of this situation, because he's still able to act with a degree of professionalism. Ironically, Anakin being able to remain calm at all (and to be clear I do think he's not wrong to be hurt by this!) makes him so much more sympathetic to me than fanfic!Anakin lashing out

I like this little banter with Mace here, "everyone's tired of looking at that ugly face of yours"/"this is the face that saved the Republic!"

And...hey. Obi-Wan here is still putting weight in Anakin's insight. He's still treating Anakin's observations as solid and valid. He's not taking "do you even know the whole truth" as just a personal attack, but a fair point. That's so much more interesting to me than the plain ol' "we are completely disconnected from one another without the slightest modicum of respect remaining" fanfic portrayal!

Love how Dooku drags Anakin here for no particular reason except to cause drama

>"as long as I live, no harm will come to you, Your Excellency"

>"one shudders to think where the galaxy would be without the Jedi"

Hello, my lady. *genteel bow*

I was perusing tumblr and took a double take at your name and it's (shallow) similarity to mine. I was further tickled that we share strong interests in sw and tcw and tbb. I took my name from a lord in an anime I watched years back so its not very Star Wars-y. May I ask how you chose your name?

Hello there, my Lady * bows head*

This is such a nice surprise to see when logging in. This is indeed a fun coincidence and to notice we both seem to share a strong interest in SW and TCW is already great. Now the name? This will blow your mind, perhaps... Or perhaps not but! My name is taken from an anime that I love and though I added the Lady the Katakuri is actually a man from said anime and he is a Sweet Commander to boot. The anime is called One Piece , perhaps you know it or have heard of it. I must say, this was a truly pleasant surprise.

Ahsoka spoilers

maaaaaaaaan

if y’all thought my reaction from last week’s episode was intense…

you should’ve seen me last night watching episode 6 😆

I knew ahead of time that Ezra was in the episode, I had even seen screenshots of him

but the moment he appeared on screen while Ham and I were watching the episode, I lost it. I had a meltdown. I literally felt like the father in the story of the Prodigal Son. it was a lot LOL

I guess it was similar to last week in that I was seeing something extremely beloved by me that I thought I had lost (that being TCW), and I was seeing it in a new format to boot. but unlike that, the fact that Ezra was live action was irrelevant to me. sure, I was studying Eman like a HAWK, which was unnecessary cause holy frick that man is Ezra irl, he’s absolutely PERFECT. but the biggest thing for me, the thing I was mostly focused on, was simply seeing him again 🥺

I truly thought he was gone forever at the end of Rebels. Kanan had died, and Ezra disappearing honestly felt the same way for me. ngl I don’t blame Sabine for doing what she did cause I honestly probably would’ve done the same thing, especially for Ezra haha

it was one thing seeing a character like Rex last week. Rex is also one of my favorite characters (obviously). but he was just a little cameo, and he wasn’t even real in that moment, just a memory/illusion. but Ezra is real. he’s not just a cameo, he’s not going away next week. he’s here to stay. I get to see more of him. he’s part of the story again. so it’s just more meaningful overall to me really.

also lbr comparing a character that I think of like a son to a character that I simp for is actually incomparable. Ezra being an adult doesn’t change a thing for me, that is my SON. my CHILD. if Hera won’t admit to being his mom, then I will LOL

so yeah. big emotions last night. the prodigal son is home and I’m living. oh and Thrawn is pretty cool I guess 😜

#I honestly have more to say #but obviously I’m too focused on the (1) thing to care about anything else rn haha #star warz #ahsoka spoilers

Random thought spurred by re-reading Light of the Jedi while knowing exactly where the Galaxy’s headed in-universe.

The ST’s been over for almost four years now and the more Star Wars I read/watch/come to love the more I... wish it didn’t exist.

And I’m fully aware that that makes me an hypocrite because if I hadn’t liked TFA back in 2015, and liked it a lot to boot, enough to start checking out all I could get my hands on then I would’ve never came to like this big story as I do now.

And yet. Even if I never had any emotional attachment to the OT while I came to love the prequels period & characters in TCW and Rebels instead there was this... surety. that whatever suffering the characters endured it would end with Sidious’ defeat and death and the Jedi Order having a chance to be restored.

I remember precisely how much joy the Rebels finale line “Hera fought in the Battle of Endor, as did Commander Rex” gave me in 2018, because fuck it, it meant Rex lived past the man that destroyed all his brothers and their loved Jedi, that there had been at least one surviving clone that had outlasted Sidious! That there had been a represantative for the clones to live past the man that had made all their lives a living hell.

...what a joke, eh? In reality it was Sidious who outlasted them all, all the OT and the PT and the TCW heroes and probably a good chunk of the Rebels heroes too.

And the characters of the High Republic that I’m growing to love now... the Order they love so much is so utterly lost I have no idea canon will ever let it live again.

I hate it here, wish I could convince my brain to at least slot the High Republic in int’s own timeline where there’s no Banite Sith and no big plan in the making, no Sidious and especially no bloody JJ Abrams to come to destroy all previous conquest because the man seem incapable of writing sequels without going “salt the earth and reboot it all” on them.

It is an absolute shame that Maul didn’t ask for rockets to be installed in his fancy new boots. Death Watch absolutely had the technology to do so and I think it’s just a down right crime that they didn’t.

So I've been trying to make sense of Ahsokas timeline in s7 considering the growth of her lekku when we first see her again in Coruscants underworld and I thought you'd be the best person to ask😂

Do you think her design is a design error that animators didn't think through as they like to do or do you think it actually indicates she's been away from the order for idk 3 months or something before she stumbles into the sisters? Also how much time do you think she spent with Bo-Katan (lekku growth again, new armor, they are kinda familiar with each other too) I have some thoughts but I'm not aware of any canon info on this. :')

okay let's break this down.

Design

No, the design is definitely intentional, considering Ms. Ahsoka 'D' (7.05-08) and 'E' (7.09-12) exist. They are two different 3D models and the lekku growth is noted on the character sheets. (and no, I have no idea what the Ahsoka C model is. Not mortis adult ver., not youngling ver., not Rebels adult ver., not monkey boots/original walkabout outfit)

Timeline

Actually, this problem is pretty simple, by using Anakin as a benchmark. Ahsoka met Anakin on Coruscant before he leaves for the Outer Rim Sieges in 7.06, and she saw him again during the Siege on Yerbana. So, Ahsoka stayed with Bo-Katan roughly as long as the Outer Rim Sieges has gone on.

ROTS novel states the Sieges to be 'five months' long (Ch 9). That is no longer Disney canon and does not comply with events of TCW really. so I suggest we compress the number to 3, the minimum for Padme's a baby bump to show. With 2021 Character Encyclopedia listing the Lawless arc as the earliest event in 19BBY,

it gives us the feasible timeline of: (month.week)

1.1-2 Lawless arc (5.14-16)

1.3-4 Wrong Jedi arc (5.17-20)

(2-3 Season 6, Utapau arc, Son of Dathomir, Dark Disciple Part 2, Thrawn Alliances)

3.3 Ahsoka's Walkabout (7.05-08)

3-6 Outer Rim Sieges

~5 Bad Batch arc (7.01-04)

6.3-4 ROTS/Siege of Mandalore (7.09-7.12)

In conclusion, after leaving the Order, Ahsoka spent about two months on her own, maximum two weeks with the Martez sisters and a little under three months with Bo-Katan and the Nite Owls. The Siege of Mandalore, as concurrent with Revenge of the Sith, takes about 10 days, as established in the rots timeline by allthingskenobi.

this rough work of course, neglects all hyperspace travel time.

Comments

After solving the problem, I realize it is not an intuitive reading. the lekku growth between models B and D (S5-S7) is greater than D and E (walkabout-siege), logically, then so should the B-D timeskip be longer than D-E. The feasible timeline says otherwise: B-D is 2 months apart while D-E is 3. Now I have to work backwards and suggest B-D is Ahsoka's growth spurt to explain the non-linear increase.

Last year, I initially based Bo-Katan and Ahsoka period together to be a month long based on similar observation: Not just the in-S7 growth is relatively shorter than between S5-S7, it was barely noticeable on the first watch, definitely so to the untrained eye. So I don't assume much time has passed. Especially, since Maul is an elusive target, and Bo-Katan claims, 'every minute we waste here, gives Maul an opportunity to slip away' (7.09) to highlight the urgency of the matter.

What did Ahsoka do in the blank months?

The Walkabout arc is written about an Ahsoka fresh from leaving the Order. Then, there was the Sith Temple arc in the original season 8, that was suppose to fill up the blank months after, and reconnects her back to the GAR for Siege of Mandalore. With the cancellation and revival, the Sith Temple arc is no longer compatible and thus Walkabout is pushed back to the brink of EP III. Therefore, we can only assume she travels across Coruscant, meditating and finding herself in the Force.
