Youtuber in Coruscant Obikin AU where in Palpatine dies tragically and all is well.
Anakin is a gamer boi, posts content mainly about his gameplays, sometimes he does a comedy sketch with his friends Ahsoka and Rex. Think Markiplier but more chaotic.
Obi-Wan has a food vlog and food centric channel as well as a diy/crafting channel focusing on how to be more economical and also reuse the packaging from your food wastes or plastic materials. People love him because he gives off a very homey warm feeling and it doesn't hurt that he's got the charm and face of a god.
More under cut
They met during vidcon and through a referral from a mutual friend (Padme) became condo mates (and they were roommates!)
Anakin is the first to fall for Obi-Wan, because the man's cooking is so magnificent it literally made Anakin incapable of loving any other food unless it is cooked by Obi-Wan himself.
Both Ahsoka and Rex have commented about how much Anakin simp for Obi-Wan but he always retaliates with: "but who wouldn't?!"
And that always shuts them up because as much as they don't simp for Obi-Wan as Anakin does, they do simp for Obi-Wan nonetheless.
Obi-Wan slowly falls in love, it's the small things that made him fall for Anakin, thoughtful gifts like a new tea blend, Anakin would help him out with prep for cooking dinner, Anakin would go out of his way to buy that rare hard to get vegan butter, Anakin would take care of him when he gets a nasty case of the flu.
Soon Obi-Wan realizes that he has already fallen for Anakin not knowing that Anakin has fallen for him long ago when he first cooked them that wonderful dish of ratatouille.
So Obi-Wan panics thinking he has made things awkward between them by falling for Anakin, thinking that Anakin cannot possibly be gay, because he works out, plays games, has manly hang outs with his friends. Yes, Obi-Wan shouldn't be stereotyping Anakin as a typical manly ungay man but he couldn’t help it because he's not thinking straight. (Hehe geddit straight cuz he not so straight after all 👀)
Meanwhile, all Anakin talks about to Rex, Ahsoka and the 501st (their like core group of gamer org that is into military simulation games) is Obi-Wan, how tasty Obi-Wan’s food is, how blue Obi-Wan’s eyes are, how soft looking his hair and how it shines bright red under the sun, everyone is almost tired of it if not for them feeling so fond for their adorable leader being in love.
Tho occasionally of course rex would shoot Anakin’s character and 'betray' him by friendly fire just to get Anakin to stop and 'focus on the game, skywalker! We're being mauled here!' (haha mauled geddit, sorry i'll stop.)
Obi-Wan is in panic hell while Anakin is in bliss heaven until of course Anakin comes out of his 'mancave' in hopes of helping Obi-Wan with cooking dinner and Obi-Wan just flat out disagrees. There's a miscommunication, Anakin thinks he's being a burden on Obi-Wan while Obi-Wan feels guilty for kicking Anakin out of the kitchen because his heart couldn't take it anymore and he wanted to kiss Anakin.
Lots of miscommunication happens, lots of unresolved sexual tension, lots of mild flirting but also awkward shuffling and then suddenly panicked distancing.
I have more but I think this post is getting too long already.
