Untold But Not Unrequited

Obi-Wan/Sabé shipper sideblog for professorerudite

[sobiwanfan]

Hello there!! Do you know some good Sobiwan fics to read? If so can I please have a list of the names? By the way your fics on tumblr are fantastic...really love them!!

Thank you so much!❤️❤️

There used to be a sobiwan fansite but it’s no longer available 🥺

If you haven’t read these, there are some great fics here. https://m.fanfiction.net/community/Knight-and-Maiden-The-Sabewan-Sobiwan-Archive/16670/

I haven’t checked out A03. I may end up posting my sobiwan fics there someday when I have a chance. My Ao3 is professorerudite

@riselioness and @hof-story both post fic here on tumblr and I believe at Ao3.

If you find any that are awesome, please share and I will reblog them here!! 😍

[riselioness]

Aw, thank you for the fic rec @sobiwanfan! @hof-story’s Hand of Fate is a delight, and she’s got a sequel in progress.

I’d also recommend @sweet-christabel‘s excellent Clone Wars-era arranged marriage fic Mutually Beneficial, and @khaleesa and @bratanimus‘s epic Born of Light (both are slow burn, so prepare yourself for the agony).

@khaleesa and @handmaiclen are co-mods of @sobiweek - there have been some great and varied works posted over the two theme weeks we’ve had so far, I really recommend checking it out! And @sweet-christabel runs @sobi-fans - she and @sobiwanfan help keep my dash seasoned with Sobi goodness :)

My first Sobiwan fic is The Decoy, a TPM-through-Sabe’s eyes fic. It’s followed up with Together, Apart, a collection of Sobi through the years. I’ve done a few other bits too, but not for a while.

As @sobiwanfan says, let us know what gems you uncover!

Ok I did finally read Queen’s Hope, and I know Sabé left after Queen’s Shadow to join the rebellion, but the idea that Obi-Wan and Sabé could’ve been barely missing each other on Tatooine for several years has put worms in my brain

[riselioness]

Any Sobiwan fics you'd like to gift to the starving sobiwan community?

😁

I wish! I have a WIP called Far From the Bright Centre, about Sabé’s first visit to Tatooine, that I’ve been picking at on and off for ages. But I’ve kind of lost my writing mojo recently (or not so recently) so it’s lain dormant for a while.

I’ve worked on it a bit in recent weeks, but I’ve paused it to see what the series brings - it’s at a point where I can probably adapt it to whatever canon ends up being. But it’s a nice feeling to be writing again, even if it’s just microfics, so we’ll see where that leads.

But since you ask, here’s a little snippet as a taster :)

***********

The sky had started to darken, and Sabé could feel fear creeping over her. Night fell quickly in the desert, and she couldn’t be caught out in the freezing hills overnight. She redoubled her efforts, and gradually started to gain on him again.

He was perhaps twenty or thirty paces ahead of her when he stopped without warning, and she stopped as suddenly as if she had been right behind him. He turned and looked back down the track towards her, his face hidden in the shadow of his hood.

“All right,” he said. “There’s no one else around now, and no-one’s in earshot. I think you’d better show yourself, and tell me what you’re doing following me.” The thrill was almost painful. His voice was slower and a little rougher, but was the same beloved voice that she hadn’t heard for over three years.

Slowly, she reached up her hands and took down her hood.

He stumbled backward and almost fell, catching himself on the eopie’s leathery side. The animal barely flinched, but slowly turned his narrow head to look back at him.

“Am I dreaming again?” he whispered. Somehow Sabé heard it as clearly as if she had been a foot away from him.

He lifted a shaking hand and she thought he was going to pull back his hood, but he just rubbed his eyes. She wanted to run to him, but she stood rooted in place.

“You’re not dreaming. I’m here, Obi-Wan.”

The use of his name seemed to bring him back to himself. “We can’t talk here. Come with me.” Turning, he prodded the eopie into movement, and set off again without waiting for her.

Enjoying some tea in my sobiwan mug!

[sobi-fans]

Agggh that is the cutest! Where did you get it? :D

[sobiwanfan]

Thanks so much! I actually won it back in 2005 for one of my stories I submitted to sobiwan.net. I can't believe it's been so long 😅

[handmaiclen]

HOLD ON………….IM THINKING!!!!!!

[rreykenobii]

Feeling sobiwan on this Friday. After watching the third episode of Kenobi, I can't help wishing for Sabé to pop in.

[riselioness]

“She did what? Your majesty, I am so sorry.”

Breha didn’t reply immediately. She pressed her fingers to her temples and smoothed her perfect skin back from her face. She sighed. “Well, it can’t be helped. I suppose she was always going to hear the story sooner or later. And it’s not your fault she takes after her mother.”

Sabé laid a hand over the Queen’s. “She takes after both her mothers,” she said gently. Breha made these kind of references from time to time, and Sabé’s heart ached for her every time she did.

Bail had always seemed entirely secure in his identity as Leia’s father, right from the day he first brought her home, but Breha seemed occasionally to question whether she truly could call herself her mother. Maybe it was because she hadn’t carried her in her body, hadn’t given birth to her or nursed her.

Or perhaps it was easier to assume the title of father when the other man with a claim to it was Anakin Skywalker.

Breha smiled and squeezed Sabé’s hand. The moment passed, and Sabé remembered she was in the middle of an apology.

“I should have seen this coming. She’d learnt about the invasion of Naboo from her tutor, so she was asking about it.” Leia knew very little about Sabé’s past, but she did know she was from Naboo.

“She was asking about Amidala, and how she persuaded the Gungans to help her. So I told her the Queen earned their trust through revealing that she and her handmaiden had swapped places, to protect her.”

Sabé shook her head. “She went quiet, Breha, and that’s when I should have known. She started saying she didn’t believe me, that two people who weren’t related couldn’t look so much alike. So I told her about how the royal outfits and make up were designed to conceal, the effect body language and confidence can have, how people usually see what they expect to see. And now - this.”

“Well, we found her in time, and there’s no harm done. And I don’t think you should blame yourself for not seeing what she was up to. But, Sabé?”

“Yes Breha?”

“I think you may need to be a little more cautious in future when regaling my daughter with tales of your handmaiden exploits.”

Sabé nodded. “Of course. But truly, I have no worries that she would use whatever she might learn for anything other than good.” She smiled at her friend.

“After all, she is her mothers’ daughter.”

On AO3 here

[stevenrogered]

You have to help him. He’ll be fine. No, he won’t be. I can make it on my own from here. Go. Keep running till you reach the port. A pilot will meet you there.

[sobiwanfan]

Anyone else really want her to be Sabé instead?

EWAN McGREGOR announces his return as OBI WAN KENOBI | AUGUST 23, 2019 OBI-WAN KENOBI TEASER TRAILER | MARCH 9, 2022

[mandofury]

[luthientinu]

How are my fellow Sobiwan shippers feeling now that the Obi Wan teaser trailer dropped?

[sobi-fans]

To be honest, I’m glad that I’m mostly in another fandom now, because otherwise I’d be bothered that it’ll mess with my headcanons lol. I’m cautiously optimistic and curious about it. If nothing else, it’ll be cool to see Ewan back and see what else he can do in the role. Mando and Boba Fett have been really interesting series’, so I think it’ll be good :) After watching those, I’m less worried that they’ll give him an unnecessary love interest!

[sobiwanfan]

So excited!🎉👏

[babyyodagirl-deactivated2024081]

No one talks about this, but Satine did not fall in love with this Obi Wan

She didnt fall for this grace of God beautiful man

She fell in love with this Obi Wan

She fell for that rat tail baby face "master qui gon said I can take the speader if I'm back by ten" Obi Wan.

That's how you know it was true love

[sobiwanfan]

Same here. She had good taste.

As for me, I ship sobiwan, so Sabé/Obi-Wan ❤️

[luthientinu]

To be honest I have never ever shipped two characters this hard. Ever since I stumbled upon the Sobiwan corner on tumblr I have been hooked...There was a potentially whole big storyline that could have been explored. If you look at it closely Sabé and Obi-Wan are destined to be together!! They both under went hardships and lost people they both loved...I could go on and on but Sobiwan fans I humbly invite you all to elaborate.

I thought of creating a group chat regarding this where all the Sobiwan fans can join together and discuss potential fics, ideas or just anything. I named the chat 'All things Sobiwan'( I am open for name suggestions so if you all have another name please tell me). If y'all ship these two Awesome and badass characters you all are more than welcome to join!

May the force be with you all and stay safe

(P.s- I really wanted to include the force blessing😁 and Sobiwan fans, if possible please elaborate on why Sabé and Obi-Wan are perfect for each other)

Sobiwan Ficlet: Rants & Revelations

BRO! I just found this silly little meta Sabé/Obi-Wan oneshot in my OLD documents (I probably wrote this 10+ years ago lol). Have a read if you’re in the mood for some Sobiwan cuteness.

Keep reading

[sobi-fans]

I bought myself the flame gown action figure, (technically it’s Rabé, but…shhh), so Sabé and Obi-Wan had to get together for an impromptu photo shoot on the top of my sewing case.
