(Obi-Wan, Anakin and Padme all standing before Windu looking guilty)

Obi-Wan:...In our defense, we were left unsupervised.

Windu: ONE OF YOU IS A JEDI MASTER AND ANOTHER ONE OF YOU IS A SENATOR!!!!!!

Anakin:...OK, but since neither of those are me, does that mean I'm not in trouble?

Windu: NO!

Anakin: "No" I am? Or "No", I'm not?

(Windu glares at him)

Anakin: ...Yeah, I was pretty sure that was gonna be the answer...

Random Padmé/Anakin/Obi-Wan headcanons plus Bail Organa and the Skywalker Legacy

I blame that post about "who did they THINK Padmé's baby daddy was?" I have a theory it was reputed to be Bail Organa's. Who's married at the time of the clone wars, but totally Padmé's ally and awesome in his own way. I just love the idea of the pro-war senators on the council attacking the Peacemakers for their supposedly scandalous free-love personal lives as part of the effort to get clone bills passed and war powers funded. I need Bail and Padmé being bros who were friends despite that scandal campaign being put out on them because the Organas secretly both knew Padmé had an open marriage if not to whom it was to, and that if it came out she was part of a polyamorous triad with two Jedi--both of whom had previously been in a Padawan/Master relationship, it would be far more damning to their efforts with the war than anything else. That though Padmé believed in stopping the war, believed in principles of freedom and speaking out against oppression, she was essentially private, always hiding herself behind layers of people and decoys. Bail Organa happily agreed to be such a decoy considering what was at stake and the great friendship between them. And what about Padmé's idealism? This is a woman who ruled a planet at fourteen, who single-handedly brought about a merging and representation by both species on her planet. When has she shied away from revolutionary ideas? I like to think both Organas knew Padmé respected life too much to consider abortion while also enjoying the idea of motherhood, and that she intended to raise her children with the benign influence of both her husband and Obi-Wan, that she wanted to simultaneously pioneer a new Jedi order that was less warlike, more connected to the common people. Because can you imagine Anakin Skywalker, the one Jedi in recent history to be raised with a positive relationship with a parent into middle childhood planning with Padmé to maintain ties with their speculative-child if it turned out they had the force? Coming together and talking about discussing it with Obi-Wan so their kid would always have a parent even if they ended up in the temple? So they would always have that balance of influence? That connection to more than just their master? Can you imagine Padmé and Anakin both accepting that Obi-Wan would be as much a parent as they were? Including him wholeheartedly, while Obi-Wan unwittingly believes the hype about Bail and Padmé and blinds himself to the hints Anakin's trying to drop? Where the shit hits the fan, but Padmé passes her son off to Obi-Wan intending him to be the second father she knew he should have been, trying to reassure him on her deathbed that they both loved a good man, that there's good in him still. Give me a poly!Padmé willing to give not one but two Jedi the family they were forbidden from having together, not being an outsider, or some shocking betrayal to Obi-Wan, but having intended him to be there with both of them from the start. Give me Obi-Wan caving and running away anyway, too overwhelmed, leaving Luke with his aunt and uncle, utterly gutted and heartbroken with grief. He sees too much of Anakin in Luke, and Anakin is lost forever. But he also sees too much of what was loving and good in the both of the boy's parents and tries to find a way for the Order's principles of detachment to be wrong about something that could have been so wonderful and unashamed. Give me doubly-destroyed Obi-Wan. Where what could have been is lost forever. Further Headcanon: • Bail scoops up little Leia and treasures her, steps in happily as a father as the space tabloids roar about the bastard princess of Alderaan. She grows up sharp-tongued and beloved by her people, more Bail than Bail himself. She earns her title, just like her mother before her. By the time she's eighteen, she's simply Princess Leia. Further Headcanon: • Episode four is Obi-Wan Kenobi stepping up to join, rescue, and take responsibility for his polyamorous triad children after both of them make contact with him on the same day and he knows, just KNOWS the force is calling to him, that he can't run from it anymore. He settles for sacrificing himself in front of both of children in an effort to protect them from what their biological father's become. At least they'll never be hurt like he was, by love for Anakin. And, in a way, he can keep running himself because he never wanted to be that father. That was Anakin's and Padmé's dream. Further Headcanon: • Ben Solo hears the whispers of the Force from a young age. His father named him as a joke, they told him. As an "it seemed right at the time." He's five years old, awakened by a whisper in a dream when he comes up to Han and informs him The Lady With Flowers In Her Hair says he was named for his Other Grandfather, solemnly informing him that Grandfather's spirit is also pleased. Poor Han turns white as a sheet as, message delivered, Ben proceeds to climb up his wookie uncle, giggling like a sunbeam and yowling little happy noises at him like he didn't just tell his father he was communing with dead relatives. Somewhere in the afterlife, Padmé's flickering blue ghost laughs at Obi-Wan's sputtering because he didn't ask to have his reputation as a spotless Jedi ruined before her grandson. "OUR grandson," Anakin corrects. And little Ben Solo's big ears perk up from nose-deep in uncle Chewie's back fur as he grins at the laughter he doesn't yet realize only he and Uncle Luke can hear. Things are as they should have been.

“Don’t You Find Me Handsome”

“We were promised a reward,” she gasped. “A h—h—handsome reward—” “I am your reward,” the Sith Lord said. "Don't you find me handsome?" That was from the ROTS novel. Anakin goes dark and instead of killing Jedi and Separatists he tries to seduce his wife and Obi-Wan into joining him. Padme might be tempted but Obi-Wan has trouble taking Anakins' flirting seriously. No killing just Anakin trying really hard to be charming and sexy while Obi-Wan is trying not to laugh. Whether it works is up to you.

Lives of Star Wars characters

Prequel Ot3: Tragedy, unhappiness, and death.

Original Trio: had some tough times but things were looking up the ending was pretty happy and then OH WHOOPS The Force Awakens happened. Tragedy, unhappiness, death. Heck even if you were following the EU it was tragedy, unhappiness and death.

Sequel Squad: Everything's gonna be alright for them. After this initial adventure they're all gonna live long happy fulfilled lives in a galaxy at peace I just feel like the third time is the charm. I know it. I can see clearly now and the rain is gone. They're gonna be the ones to get a happy ending!

Disney: We're never gonna stop making Star Wars films.

Me: So. Tragedy, unhappiness, and death. Gotcha.
