So… Crystal Crisis. Some of the most amazing, heart wrenching, I have to lay down and cry foreshadowing ever.

And I hate it. I hate it so much. Like, visceral, need to shake some people, rage.

Why?

Because that famous foreshadowing quote is the worst characterization of Obi-wan I have ever seen (from Star Wars. The worst characterization definitely belongs to some fanfic somewhere).

And here’s why. It’s all in the quote (the quote, the reason Crystal Crisis gets so much tumblr action than the other not completed arcs).

Quote 1:

Obi-Wan: "I will grant you mistakes were made, but she choseto leave. Part of the Jedi way is not letting emotion cloud your better judgment. And that's precisely what Ahsoka did, even in her most critical moment.

Ahsoka has many, many lapses in judgement during The Wrong Jedi arc. Like, so many. She is clearly panicking. She absolutely let her emotions cloud her judgement.

But not when she chose to leave.

Obi-wan and Anakin may not like the decision she made, but she made it with a clear head.

It is very in character for Anakin to not understand this.

But Obi-wan? No. This is so far out of character for him.

… and yet it gets worse

Quote the second:

Obi-Wan: "You can't take responsibility for Ahsoka's decision, Anakin."

Anakin: "How would you feel if I turned into a major disappointment?"

Obi-Wan: "It's not the same."

Anakin: "It's precisely the same: you took me under your wing and practically raised me. I'm your padawan, just like Ahsoka was mine. How well would you sleep knowing that I failed you?"

Obi-Wan: "Not very well, I imagine. Luckily, that isn't true and never will be. "

Star Wars rhymes and foreshadows and is beautiful and makes us cry and this quote is one of the reasons.

Obi-wan is so sure Anakin won’t disappoint him and then HE DOES and it is awful and hurts!!

But that isn’t what I want to talk about here.

What I want to talk about is how Ahsoka is not a failure.

She is not a disappointment.

She went through a trauma and said I cannot trust myself, I need some time.

She did not do anything un-jedi-like on her way out. No middle fingers, no yelling, just a simple I cannot be here anymore.

Again - this is spot on Anakin characterization (for his worst faults).

If someone leaves him, he has to blame them if he can’t blame himself. It cannot be neutral. It cannot be something that just needed to happen, something must have gone wrong. Someone must have failed. He is not good at situations he cannot fix, and this is one he cannot fix. When he cannot fix it, it must be someone’s fault.

But Obi-wan? I am expected to believe that he considers Ahsoka a failure? That he considers her a disappointment?

I refuse to believe it.

Obi-wan may be disappointed she is gone. He may be disappointed she left. But he is not disappointed in her.

You can be disappointed in the way something happened, or the choice someone made, without being disappointed in them.

What Obi-wan should have done here (what I believe he absolutely would have done) is explain the difference to Anakin. Explain that they don’t have to like her choice, but they should support is and hope she is doing well. They should be hoping they she is finding the answers and solace that she needs. That she is healing.

Reaffirm that people are allowed to make decisions, and that making a decision Anakin doesn’t agree with does not make someone a failure.

#ahsoka tano #obi wan kenobi #the clone wars #the wrong jedi #crystal crisis #anakin skywalker #mischaracterization #I need actual Obi-wan and Ahsoka lineage relationship #because this isn’t it #if this is actually how he would react he doesn’t deserve to know about Fulcrum #but he would never so someone tell him how his kid is trying to save the galaxy
