Finally got my hands on the Jedi apprentice first novel and I love little obi wan, he’s such a menace

[tarragonthedragon]

the thing I find charming about the jedi apprentice books is the absolute dedication to giving obi wan a taster of literally every other character's personal trauma.

oh you were a child slave? yeah that happened to him. you had to kill someone you cared about to protect innocent lives? yeah he did that at like 13. you were forced to lead children into battle as a child yourself? obi wan did that. you had to live on the run from all factions of a planet torn by civil war? that happened to obi wan like three times.

also as an adult he never once mentions any of this. icon behaviour.

[twinterrors29]

my new favorite theory about why no one other than Obi-Wan ever cites the Yavin Code, aka the GFFA's version of the Geneva Convention, is that the only copy is an ancient manuscript housed in the Jedi Temple, to which access is tightly restricted

most Jedi have never had any reason to peruse the document, due to the combined factors of how poorly recognized the Yavin Code is and how rarely a Jedi is likely to need to know conventions for the treatment of prisoners of war, etc

but Obi-Wan, with his history of involvement in large-scale conflicts since the very beginning of his Padawanship, had ample reason to want to know what it says

(un)fortunately, Obi-Wan is also acutely aware of how poorly understood the Code is, and is a good enough Negotiator to take Full Advantage of the opportunities for his trademark Half-Truths and Hyperbole to fill in those gaps in other's knowledge

Obi-wan and his bff Bant. I love their friendship, they are so cute. I was already considering drawing this and then I saw fanart of a passage from the Jedi Quest series where they continue to be the cutest most wholesome friends into adulthood and I 😭

"I came back to make sure you two weren't killing each other," Clee said. "I remember how you used to scrap at the Temple."

"We are Jedi Knights now," Qui-Gon said. "We don't scrap."

Tahl smiled. "We argue, and then I win."

the fanonization of the melida/daan arc

Fandom:

The Text:

Qui-Gon and Yoda: "Time it is for you to speak your heart," Yoda said softly. "Past time, it is." With a heavy sigh, Qui-Gon sat on the bench next to Yoda. He did not want to unburden his heart. Yet Yoda had a right to know the facts. "He stayed," Qui-Gon said simply. "He told me he had found something on Melida/Daan that was more important than his Jedi training."

The events he's referencing from Obi-Wan's perspective: 1): "Qui-Gon, you must understand," Obi-Wan said quietly. "I've found something here. All my life, I have been told what is right, what is best. The path has been pointed out to me. That was a great gift, and I'm grateful for all I've learned. But here on this world all those abstractions I've learned suddenly fit into something concrete. Something I can see. Something real." Obi-Wan gestured back toward the headquarters of the Young. "These people feel like my people. This cause feels like my cause. It calls to me like nothing I've ever felt before." 2): Obi-Wan realized he had already chosen. He couldn't turn his back on this suffering. He couldn't turn his back on his friends. Even if it cost him everything. He would give that, and more. "I'll be back," Obi-Wan promised, and took off. Obi-Wan ran without stopping. He had to get to the ship before Qui Gon. He did not want a confrontation. If Qui-Gon tried to stop him, what would he do? He pushed aside the thought. He would just have to get there first. Tahl would slow Qui-Gon down. 3): His steps slowed as Qui-Gon caught sight of him. Obi-Wan saw the relief on his Master's face. Qui-Gon thought he was coming to return with him to the Temple. The Jedi Knight stood by the entrance ramp, waiting. Obi-Wan didn't give Qui-Gon a chance to speak. He could not bear to hear words of welcome. "I'm not here to go with you," he said. "I came for the starfighter." 4): Obi-Wan grasped the rock of his conviction and felt his confusion drop away. Here on Melida/Daan he had met a reality that was stronger than anything he'd known. "I have found something here more important than the Jedi code," Obi-Wan said slowly. "Something not only worth fighting for, but worth dying for." Obi-Wan handed his lightsaber to Qui-Gon. "You may go, Qui-Gon Jinn. But I will stay." It was as though the words hit Qui-Gon in the face, for he flinched. He stared down at Obi-Wan's lightsaber in his hand, not speaking. A great struggle seem to go on within the Jedi Knight's powerful body. Obi-Wan had hurt him. He longed to take the words back. He could not. They had been said. He had meant them. 5): Obi-Wan stood next to Nield and Cerasi. It was a historic moment. He had helped to shape it. He had no regrets about leaving the Jedi. He was home.

The Text:

What happened when Qui-Gon was called to meet with the council: Qui-Gon was in his quarters when he got the message that he was to report to the Jedi Council immediately. He was most likely being called to report on what had happened with Obi-Wan. He rose with a sigh. He had returned to the Temple for peace. Instead, he was forced to relive the situation over and over. Still, a request from the Council could not be ignored. Part of being a Jedi was recognizing that one's own wisdom had limits. The Council was made up of the wisest and best of the Jedi Masters. If they wanted to hear from Qui-Gon directly, he would tell them. Qui-Gon entered the Council room. It was the highest room in one of the Temple towers, taking up the entire top story. Outside the windows that ran from floor to ceiling, the spires and towers of Coruscant hovered below. The sun was just rising, brushing the clouds with orange fire. Qui-Gon stood in the center of the room, bowed respectfully, and waited. How would they begin? Would Mace Windu, whose dark eyes could burn through you like hot coals, demand his reason for leaving a thirteen-year-old boy in the middle of a war? Would Saesee Tiin murmur that Qui-Gon's actions had always come from an impulsive but giving heart? He had been called before the Council more than most Knights. He could guess at what each would say. Yoda began the meeting. "Call you here on a matter of grave importance we have. Secret it is. A series of thefts we have discovered." Qui-Gon was startled. He had not been prepared for this.

What the council reprimanded Obi-Wan for on his return: Ki-Adi-Mundi spoke up. "Obi-Wan, you have violated not only the trust of Qui-Gon, but the trust of the Council. You seem not to recognize this." "But I do!" Obi-Wan exclaimed. "I take responsibility for it and I'm sorry for it." "You are thirteen years old, Obi-Wan. You are not a child," Mace Windu said with a frown. "Why do you speak as one? Sorry does not make the offense disappear. You interfered in the internal affairs of a planet without official Jedi approval. You defied the order of your Master. A Master depends on the loyalty of the Padawan, just as the Padawan depends on the Master. If that trust is broken, the bond shatters." The sting of Mace's words made Obi-Wan wince. He did not expect the Council to be so severe. He couldn't look at Qui-Gon. His gaze found Yoda's. "Unclear your path is, Obi-Wan," Yoda said with more gentleness. "Hard it is to wait. But wait you must to see your way revealed."

reading Jedi apprentice series and the start of obi-wan’s apprenticeship is. fun

sure criticize Qui-Gon’s lack of parenting skills but it’s a lot less like “I voluntarily got a child I could not take care of” and a lot more like Yoda “Want Great Grandchildren I Do” pulled a. get your kid a new puppy after the old one dies so they’ll be less sad
