kara: “CAN YOU IMAGINE G6 ASKING IF HE CAN SLEEP IN YOUR BED WITH OBI BC HE'S SCARED OF THE THUNDERSTORM??” + “Obi is definitely the one to bend out of the two of you. He's wrapped around G6's antenna”

me: *furiously churns out 1.4k words of pure fluff*

so believe it or not, kara (@hellotherekenobi​) and i are capable of brainstorming fluffy and domestic headcanons for everyone’s favorite droid, G6 (the Bestest Boy!!). the ones above stuck with me and i couldn’t get them out of my head, so i decided to take a shot at writing them. buckle up everyone, fluffy times are ahead!

Thunderstorms on Stewjon are few and far between, but when they do happen, you can’t help but find yourself with the inability to sleep. Back on Coruscant, you were able to sleep through all the noise of the busy city outside, but here on Stewjon, the claps of thunder and bolts of lightning keep you awake.

You can’t say the same for your other half, though.

Whereas you’re wide awake at the sounds of the storm, Obi-Wan is completely dead to the world while spooning you, having been desensitized to these strong storms after living on Stewjon his whole life. You try not to move too much and let him continue sleeping, but you can’t help but intertwine your hand with his lax one as your thoughts wander.

Sometimes you catch yourself thinking that you must be dreaming, that this couldn’t possibly be your life. That there’s no way you actually left the Jedi Order and found love with the prince of Stewjon himself, Obi-Wan Kenobi. There’s no way that you two kissed as soon as you returned to Stewjon after leaving the Order. There’s no way he looked at you so lovingly afterward, as if he couldn’t believe he could finally have this—a relationship with you, the chance of a happily ever after, and the ability to finally show off his love for you which he kept locked away for years. There’s no way he got down on one knee and proposed to you with both of you on the verge of tears. And there’s no way you got married and declared your love in front of everyone. Sometimes you worry that you’re going to wake up one morning and it all will disappear and you’ll be left with the harsh reality that it was nothing more than a dream.

But it isn’t a dream. And as you lay in bed in the middle of the night, your husband’s arm wrapped around your waist and his face tucked into the back of your head, you can’t help but marvel at how right all of this feels.

You wouldn’t change a moment of it for the world.

You’ve just closed your eyes and are about to try sleeping again when you hear a sound that isn’t from the thunderstorm. You open your eyes and lift your head off your pillow to look around the room. Your eyes quickly land on G6 rolling his way to your side of the bed. You slowly try to unwind Obi-Wan’s arm from around your waist so you can sit up and talk with G6, but just as you think you’ve managed to do so without waking him up, his arm goes back around your waist and he pulls you tight against him.

“Where are you going, my love?” You can’t help but be endeared at how grumpy he sounds at the thought of you leaving his side, but it’s clear from the way G6 is rocking that he wants your attention.

“It would appear that your son decided to pay us a visit,” you reply. That wakes Obi-Wan up.

“What?” He untangles himself from you to sit up and look over at his son who’s still rocking back-and-forth. You follow suit and sit up as well. “What’s wrong, my son?”

“Can I sleep in your bed tonight? The storm is really loud and I’m scared,” G6 beeps pitifully. You decide not to comment on how G6 has never been scared of thunderstorms before and instead focus your attention on your husband whose face immediately softens. From that look alone, Obi-Wan doesn’t even need to respond for you to know what his answer is. Well… it looks like G6 is sleeping with us tonight, you think to yourself. You turn your attention back to G6—who has stopped rocking and is looking hopeful now—and you know that he knows what the answer is too. He’s lucky the bed is big enough for everyone.

“Of course you can stay with us tonight, my son! We'll keep you nice and safe here in our bed.”

Though the happy beeps warm your heart, you can’t help but look at your husband again to try and convey your hesitation at the situation. His eyes flick over to yours and an understanding passes between the two of you, a million words exchanged without a single one being spoken. He knows you hear his apology for agreeing without discussing this with you first as well as his reassurance that it’s just for one night, and you know he hears your forgiveness and acceptance at the situation.

“Excellent. (Y/N), could you help me get him up here?” Obi-Wan asks. You nod your head in response as you get out of bed.

As the two of you assist G6 with getting in your bed, the droid immediately asks if he could lay between you two. Aaaaaaand there goes any further chance of cuddling with your husband tonight. But you can’t begrudge your little friend. You know how he loves cuddling close to Obi-Wan or you whenever he can, and it’s clearly something he wants now with the thunderstorm outside.

Once G6 is laying down, you can’t help but look fondly at Obi-Wan as he pulls the sheets up over the little droid. While he’s adjusting the sheets and tucking your droid in, you think about how, despite the loud and strong storm outside, you have a quiet and soft moment happening right before you. It’s as if there’s no storm outside, only the calm in your bedroom. Obi-Wan catches your fond look and responds with a look of curiosity and a small smile.

“What?” he asks with a chuckle.

“Nothing. Just admiring the view,” you tease. Though the room is dark, the little light present in the room is able to reveal Obi-Wan’s cheeks turning slightly pink, and you can’t help but smile wide at how he flushes. You love these moments where you can fluster him. After so many years of him shamelessly doing it to you while you were bound to the Code, you love finally having the ability to turn the tables on him every now and then.

“I’m sure your view doesn’t even begin to compare to mine,” Obi-Wan teases back. Damn him, now your face is heating up. With a playful smirk, he leans over G6 to kiss you softly. Another clap of thunder followed by a strike of lightning occurs and the two of you pull back as the room lights up for a moment. You quietly admire how ethereal he looks in the wake of the storm.

“Thank you for being alright with him sleeping with us tonight,” he whispers.

You run your hand through his sleep-mussed hair as you laugh quietly. “If only it were easy to say no to him. You do realize he’s got you wrapped around his little antenna, right?”

As he rolls his eyes fondly at you, he catches your hand and gives it a kiss, but he doesn’t deny your comment. He knows how attached he is to his son, but you’re attached too, so you have no room to call him out for caving so easily. However, between the two of you, he knows he’s the one who gives in more easily to your son. At least you can stand your ground for longer than he can.

“Well I’m sorry for being such a loving and caring father to our son, my love,” he jests.

“I never said it was a bad thing, my darling,” you tease back.

The pink returns to Obi-Wan’s cheeks and he opens his mouth to respond to you but is cut off by the beeping of the very droid you’re talking about.

“Can we go to sleep now?” he asks. You and Obi-Wan share a smile at G6’s request. You’re about to get yourself situated into your new position with G6 sleeping between you both when you hear Obi-Wan clear his throat very pointedly.

Looking up, you see a familiar sight: Obi-Wan tapping his cheek. His silent request for a kiss. You jokingly roll your eyes at him before complying and leaving a tender kiss on his cheek. As you pull back and start to lay down, you notice his self-satisfied smile.

You’re pulling the sheets back over you when you hear Obi-Wan ask G6 if he would like another lullaby before you all go back to sleep. G6, of course, says yes, and you lay down beside him as Obi-Wan starts singing a familiar tune, the very one you’ve heard so many times before G6 powers down for the night. The storm outside has lightened up, making it easy for you to hear your husband sing as rain quietly falls in the background.

Between the soft sounds of the rain and Obi-Wan's soothing voice, you find yourself quickly falling asleep, love and happiness wrapped around you like a blanket.

A little something I whipped up bc of @hellotherekenobi’s absolutely wonderful Stewjon Au!! Ft. R4-G6 (@bb8sworld)!! The best boi droid son! I love him and this Au so much!! 😫❤️

Also I just wanted to show that Sombra’s eyes do the thing. 👀

[bb8sworld]

no more G6 angst! society has progressed past the need for G6 angst!!

You know... I could stop contributing to the G6 angst, but I also may or may not have already written 1.2k words of pure sadness that promises to be fun for the whole family. And it’d be a shame to not share it with the world. Really, contributing to the G6 angst that @hellotherekenobi started is the only logical solution here.

KARA - Okay so I know we haven’t discussed prince!obi and G6 in a hot minute but I was writing my day 7 fic about R2 being a projector for a Christmas movie night and all I could think about was G6 in his royal plating hosting a Christmas movie night at the palace for all of the little children and Obi just watching his son be an innocent child for a minute and ugghhhhhh my tiny little heart grew three sizes on this day

Aw, Amanda! This is absolutely adorable!! The way all of the children would huddle around G6 while he projects the movie, and you and Obi-Wan are standing at the door watching the whole scene with smiles on your faces. Of course, since this is G6, he's totally showing "ads" before the movie, which are the videos he took of your wedding.

But also think of the children giving G6 paper crowns to wear. I'm not sobbing, you are.

We need an angsty R4-G6 backstory. As well as an insight to his personality because I’m attached

Read about meeting R4-G6 for the first time here!

The Republic mechanic who built G6 absolutely loves him— the first time he shows the copper droid to the Council, he's so excited... but the Council doesn't exactly see G6's worth for field missions, so he's used more for recall and messages. That being said, G6 spends nearly all his time down in the manufacturing room where he meets more droids (Topias - who was built before him, the probe droid, the C-class Astromech droid, the buzz droid, and the class-two droid.) They become his family before he meets you and Obi-Wan, and as much as the mechanic is a father to G6, he slowly stops fixing G6 up as he builds more droids for the Republic— and one by one these droids leave the manufacturing room and none return, leaving G6 with his squad in the corner who hope that one day they'll be chosen for something.

Sadly, whenever G6 is seen by other Jedi, they don't give him much attention. Even once, when G6 disobeyed orders to help aid in a mission, he gets words shouted at him by a military commander, saying things like, “That droid almost jeopardized the mission!! He could've cost me men! He needs to be put back in the rubbish pile where he belongs!” and that's where G6 stays, eventually deciding to plug himself into his charging pod and sleep until he's needed— but that's the sweet thing because the last thing he remembers before he goes to sleep is being told he's essentially worthless, but the first thing he sees when he wakes up again is you who treats him kindly and asks for his help.

R4-G6's personality is nothing short of sweet, kind, and intelligent. He knows the ins and outs of different softwares (including the entire Republic's database and archives), meaning that he can tell you about anything that you ask him. He's not much of a fighter, seeing as he wasn't built with those kinds of features, but he shows his worth in defense; zapping others, distracting enemies, knocking things over to use as obstacles/traps. He uses his antenna to wave to people, or wag it like a tail when he's excited. And all he wants to do is his very best. He's great at comforting others, a fantastic conversationalist (and dare I say, a great negotiator?), and most important of all is that he thinks with his whole robotic heart; always wanting to put the needs of others before his own.
