listen remember that one clone wars ep, and this scene happened? at first i thought he was talking about himself and this just came to mind okay dON’T EVEN LOOK IN MY DIRECTION
MORE TINY CLONES. Now with 50% more disregard for consistency vis a vis who’s little and who’s not, and also for when this takes place. I like having them in tiny armor (hopefully on the right people this time…) but there’s also something to be said for the hilarity of them poofing down and leaving their clothes behind, hence the last one.
Shutout to blackhunter666 for reminding me that the shrinking trope exists and is amazing 😀
One thing that makes me laugh about this scene every. single. time. is that when Obi-Wan sends a message to Anakin here, he bothers to identify himself as OBI-WAN KENOBI, full name.
Really, Kenobi: how many pompous British OBI-WANS is Anakin likely to be getting messages with orders in them from?! Would he really not recognize OBI-WAN’S voice? When he might even be able to SEE HIM?! Maybe Anakin really is that slow to catch on in their holo-Skype calls, though.
Obi-Wan: Hi, Anakin, it’s Obi-Wan.
Anakin: [deeply confused] …who?!
Obi-Wan: You know: Obi-Wan Kenobi? From the Jedi Temple? I’m your Master? We live together? I have that wolfman hair? We see each other every single day?
Anakin: Ohh. THAT Obi-Wan.
the first time it happened, anakin was hung-over and exceptionally slow on uptake. then they both just keep doing it to fuck with each other
i was originally just going to queue this post as-is BUT WAIT NO I had a better idea:
star wars takes place in space, and space is infinite, and so while Anakin Skywalker may be the only Anakin at the Jedi temple, there are at least three other Obi-Wan’s. There was a newscaster near Stewjon who had that name when Obi-Wan was born. It’s in the top thousand most popular names for that region of space (which, when you consider how many trillions of people live there, means it’s still a very popular name.)
That’s not what bothers Kenobi, though. What bothers Obi-Wan is the droid.
OB-1 KENOOBEE, however, is a Jedi Temple droid. And you would notbelieve the number of times Obi-Wan has been woken up by someone trying to summon that piece of shit droid.
First thing he did on the Council was decommission the damn droid. It didn’t stop the calls.
(Mostly because Anakin kept fixing the damn thing.)
I also hereby accept this as canon, too.
I hope that the calls to the droid are like, not even calls from actual people. Instead, it’s some electronic transmission in robospeak that comes in and when he picks up the phone at 3am, kinda drunk, his hair askew, it’s like, BEEEEEEEEP BEEP BEEP BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP WHIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRPZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZTT SUPER LOUDLY, and then he’s like WHAT THE FUCK OH FFS IT’S ANOTHER CALL FOR THAT FUCKING DROID AGAIN and then he steps on something sharp on the floor and is hopping around on one foot while swearing, and then Anakin comes in the room and is like, “…everything OK, Master? It’s 3am you know, you should really get some sleep,” and Anakin’s got this smirk on his face because he KNOWS it’s a call for that droid he fixed again and Obi-Wan is like “JUST GO TO BED DAMN IT GOD WHY IS MY LIFE LIKE THIS WHY COULDN’T I HAVE BEEN THE ONE THAT GOT MAULED IN EPISODE 1.”
I’m gunna be reblogging some stuff from my sideblogs this month for the sake of DeDraMo. Hoping to make this my third *fourth successful year in a row! ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
EDIT: This is way too late and probably futile, but for the record, this comic takes place in a domestic Earth AU. The Force can’t help him with that towel.
