unsurprsing, yet infuriating. if obi-wan is dead, where does that leave him? if obi-wan is dead, the council is blind to think anakin would not rectify that. justice shall be his success, whether or not they would have it so. there is no molecule in his body that can remain still and content, for he was born within circumstances that breed ire and little meditation achieves peace. of course, he blames the war and its unforgiving effects. it ripples through the galaxy, bouncing from planet to planet, from sector to sector. carrying with it a sense of chaos - the force itself disturbed.
he has long accepted that idea of death. the passing of comrades in a blink of an eye, names blown to memory moths in farewell. but despite this, there were few that he has made immortal. padme, despite his haunting dreams with no end. ahsoka, despite her taste for danger that mirrors his own. obi-wan, despite welcoming it with open arms should it come.
anakin's eyes meets spock's, his words resonating with him. "they would be wise to watch me," he admits, his knuckles quivering as he squeezes his hand tightly. what he would give to end rako hardeen weaponless - with the brute force of his fist. lips quirk upwards, spock a logical man that he has grown... a genuine respect for. a man of true logic would know that often, it leads away from what rules and codes may demand.
"they would be wise to watch you too, apparently," is a tease, anakin's arms crossing over his chest to pace. "maybe with you around, they'll look less. will you stop me, when we find him?"
will you let me kill him? is an unspoken question.
He knows more than he should — more than he admits — touching on a vibrancy in all this, lights and streaming technicolor that would be akin to admiration or wonder at the tension that exists in this room, bleeding out and outward like a festering wound.
The comparison is apt, he thinks. Flesh torn from bone, innards spilling everywhere, red red red.
The Force is a fractured dome of these dense vibrations, and Spock can identify it for what it is despite the careful blankness of his face, this fury. It is coiled, frayed, between these molecules pulsating at every crook and corner when he lets them come into his awareness.
To stand idle would be impossible.
“ Their perspective is unsurprising, ” he says, tangling their eyes together. The council’s advisory is to be taken as scripture — untouched, unquestioned — and Spock would like to believe that he could uphold that wisdom were he in Anakin’s place.
But he is not so certain.
“ And will likely be watching you. ” If they knew Anakin, they would know, would not be so naïve as to think logic could contain the wandering eyes of those left behind. “ However — they are not watching me. ”

@acharnemcnt ( prince of arkanis )
the rainy planet eclipsed any other option he could have been assigned to in the outer rim - though anakin still possesses a hint of agitation for its nature. his insistence that his padawan was needed at his side fell on deaf ears, for this assignment was decidedly for him alone. anakin abandoned his biting comments towards the council, their eyes as bagged as his, though he repeats that is is only for obi-wan's benefit. amidst war, his streak of rebellion would only further complicate areas that desperately needed its absence.
instead, he sent off a final transmission to his old master before entering the arkanis atmosphere, the pattering of rain against the transparisteel a particular solace. unlike the spiraling city of coruscant, with it's looming skeletal-fingers of skyscrapers reaching high into the sky, there is no hint of weather control systems to keep the planet's ecosystem in check. nature reigns its own.
he was partnerless - posing as a bodyguard to a prince he only knew by name. the data pad detailing his mission is locked away, passed towards artoo for safekeeping. there was no guarantee of it so far from courscant, afterall, with his mission proving important. " well, " he murmured to his droid, his ship left to hum to a stop beneath the drizzle, " it could be worst. don't look at me like that, i didn't choose the planet. look after your own circuits. "
he could be surrounded by the last shrill calls of men falling to the ground, a symphony of blasters shot into the sky in retaliation. he could find their cooling skin with one final hint of comradeship before he's whisked off into another clamor of weaponry. in comparison, this is a vacation.
he has not forgotten his manners. the proper introduction - as diplomatic as he plays at. he has learned from the best, afterall, though even the years spent with padme have not fine-tuned him into perfection when it came to nobility and politicians. he has grown too used to his men in the 501st, as brash and burdened by war as he has become. despite this, anakin extends himself with a polite acknowledgement, the poncho pushed from atop his head.
" prince hux, " he greets, the words oozing that practiced formality, " jedi knight anakin skywalker. apologies for my delay - i assume the council has been in contact ? "
as if to say, have they told you of my babysitting ?

ANAKIN SKYWALKER – THE FALLEN ANGEL

he has grown tired of talks of kyber distribution. he has grown tired of many things, it seems, despite positioning himself to do otherwise. detective kenobi nipped at his heels like a well-trained hound, the questions and concerns a growing and looming mountain he is not equipped to explain away. it's exhaustion and a need for ... an outlet ... that catches his eye. if not for his sour mood, specific and intimate to the memory of his mother, he would not have looked twice. he has made it a habit to keep his eyes glued only to his goals, regardless of where it may take him.
bloodshed, collateral damage, the delicacy of a self-fulfilling war - such a tedious combination that jabba left him when anakin's weapon found his neck. but exceptions can be made, if only to check his temper; reign in what he must not let loose. it's his temper that landed him here, posturing as jabba's natural heir to the kyber-empire. his associates have become borderline uncontrollable after the untimely death, as expected of men that have everything to lose.
he may be the one with power now, but power often turns even the closest allies green. men he associates with do not take kindly to someone so young ordering them through a city they think they possess.
patience has never been a learned behavior. not even his mother, with the patience of a saint, could teach him properly. but there is one thing that requires it, that rewards it, and he intends to see it through.
"madame," he calls, fingers knocking across the wooden door. the building is quaint and filled to the brim with the treasure he arrives for. "rabene tonsort? i have a consultation scheduled."
@faithfulmaiden ( rabene. moden verse. )

say it with me folks:
ATTACHMENT, as defined by the jedi code, is NOT THE SAME as ROMANTIC LOVE or PLATONIC LOVE. The JEDI WERE ALLOWED TO LOVE. What attachment refers to is UNHEALTHY RELATIONSHIP DYNAMICS where ONE PARTNER IS POSSESSIVE OF THE OTHER.
( Evidence to support this claim can be found HERE )
NON-ROLEPLAY BLOGS, DO NOT REBLOG.
Roleplay mutuals are encouraged to interact and reblog.

TRAGIC AESTHETIC I SENTENCE STARTERS — a bunch of quotes pulled from pinterest boards. feel free to make alterations.
i’m having a hard time describing how i feel.
did we really go through all this for nothing?
people do bad things when they are trying to survive.
i don’t know who i am anymore. i am no one if i’m not self-destructing.
no matter what i do, i can’t get better.
and now i have nothing.
when are you going to stop punishing yourself for things you cannot control?
i replay that moment every night in my head.
they’re dead because of you.
maybe i lied when i said i was okay.
i am tired of being brave.
loneliness really fucks you up.
this isn’t normal. this isn’t the way normal people live.
my mother is ashamed of me.
it’s been a long time since i’ve felt right.
he’s not coming back.
we’ll never be those kids again.
everything i love turns to shit.
i’m terrified that if i try my hardest, i still won’t be good enough.
what a terrible mess i’ve made of my life.
acting like you don’t care is not letting it go.
i wish i could have saved you. please forgive me.
ghosts? sure. i know all about ghosts.
there will be no miracles here.
i wish i could let all this anger go.
why can’t things that are good just stay?
too many people leave without saying goodbye.
i don’t know who i want to be anymore.
what doesn’t kill you makes you wish you were dead.
the trouble is that you think you have time.
sometimes i still can feel his hands.
i’ve wasted so much time becoming nothing.
where is all the time that heals?
oh, the things we invent when we are scared and want to be rescued.
i am the monster you created.

obi-wan kenobi.
❝ because patience has always been my strong suit for these sort of things, ❞ anakin jokes, lips coiling at the corners. he recalls many nights twirling his padawan braid in frustrating twists as he fumed over reports, yet then he was not offered much room for. . . procrastination. now, he can get away with it enough his complaints remain relatively controlled, though if he does not make a break for it soon, he's sure obi-wan will be pleading for an escape. he tosses his datapad far from reach, mechno-hand swooping down his face.
the data reports are not the only thing he's attempting to distract himself from. the tedious bound of energy in his step is another - the war molding him into a man that couldn't rest if he tried. there was always men to tend to, negotiations, strategy that kept him up staring into the depths of space with a yearn for release. molded - no, forged - into a weapon, into a soldier, into half mechno and durasteel. these apartments were a preferred place to rest, but they could not offer him what he needed.
he finds his footing, stretching in exaggeration. ❝ hey, if i'm not almost getting you killed, who will keep you prepared?, ❞ he reasons, electing to ignore all the various ways obi-wan has almost gotten him killed. ❝ have to keep you on your toes. and, you know, if you don't get a hobby, i'll have to scrape you up from your seat one day. is that what you want, master? ❞
not that he is far from that either, with the way his body aches down to his bones most nights. and yet, and yet, all he desires is the smell of pungent fuel, of fresh cushnip and bantha burgers from the concession stands. of the roar of pods instead of blasters.
❝ could always. . . share mine. go down a few more levels and you'll see. ❞
Nothing is lost on Obi-Wan. Anakin has a fire in his veins—a ceaseless need for adrenaline that fuels his boundless energy. His focus ought to be on the work in front of him—someone’s got to follow through with protocol—but instead his gaze is turned outward, toward the thrumming pulse of Coruscant. The dying light has given way to the soft violet of evening, darkness swallowing up the skyline like a cocoon. Lights have already started blinking on throughout the city, a thousand shining pinpricks across a field of endless towers.
Anakin’s got the itch to go out tonight. He carries a distinct sort of tension when he wants to get away from the temple; Obi-Wan knows the look well after years of stalking his rebellious apprentice through shadowed streets, feigning ignorance come morning. For all he must play the stern master—still, after all these years, Anakin so badly needs discipline—Obi-Wan is not unsympathetic. Seeing the longing in his former apprentice’s eyes tweaks the master’s heartstrings; it’s all he can hope that his lenience doesn’t one day get them both killed.
“What, you mean to tell me filing mission reports isn’t fun enough for you? Color me surprised.” He stands from his desk, rolling his shoulders in a half-hearted stretch as he moves to stand beside Anakin. Dry words, but there’s a gentle smile on his face as he meets his eye. “I hardly know what I’d do with myself without you trying to get me killed on so regular a basis. Pick up a hobby, maybe. I hear some people have those.”

hold my hand. we can make the jump together.
oh my god. he's reaching for something.
why didn't you take the shot?
we should get moving before they come back.
this isn't what i signed up for.
do you smell that? what is that?
are you with me?
let's go over the plan one more time.
we've got a serious problem here.
these people will kill you if they have to.
the door's locked. it needs a six digit code.
i think we lost them.
we might be stuck.
which way did they go?
i can't wait to get you back to the room.
let me drive this thing.
there's not enough room for both of us.
it wasn't supposed to happen like this.
you're bleeding.
i'm not sticking around to see what happens.
