I don't know if anyone asked this before, but I'm interested in your thoughts. Let's say Qui-Gon ended up in a coma after TPM. Everything else happens until Clone Wars (before the slave arc, deception, etc.) He wakes up & meets Dooku, Yoda, Obi, Ani, Soka. Does he stick w/the Jedi or join Dooku? If he leaves does everyone else help Obi through this trying period? Does Dooku still want to bring Obi in? What about Qui-Gon? Will he spill the beans on Palpatine if he learns the truth?
Oh gods, so if I ever finish writing "Hung," that story explores exactly this topic!!!
Qui-gon, being Qui-gon, I think tries to have the best of everything. I see him as being completely disgusted with the Jedi's role in the war effort and yet not being able to reconcile Dooku's turn to the Sith. He would, I think, try to understand why Dooku turned, because it wouldn't have been without reason. He would also, I believe, come barging into Obi-wan's life like a bossy protocol droid and just start trying to rearrange things his way. Which would include getting Obi-wan to "see" why the Council is wrong and why the Jedi need to pull away from the war.
The thing is...Qui-gon is going to straddle that line until someone else gives in and inevitably gets hurt due to it. My bet would be on Obi-wan. I don't see Qui-gon joining Dooku as much as chasing after him and trying to get him to see the truth, and then Obi-wan chasing after Qui-gon to save his scrawny, long-haired ass yet again.
And Dooku? Hell, he'll take either of them, both of them, although I have this nibbling in the back of my brain that Dooku would feel 1000% more guilty turning Qui-gon than Obi-wan. Qui-gon isn't meant to be a Sith, in his mind, just someone who is a non-political actor. Qui-gon, for all of his faults, isn't actually angry, not to the point of purposeful destruction. Obi-wan, on the other hand...well, Dooku could not turn down that consolation prize, by any means.
Now in terms of Sidious...no doubt Qui-gon would spill, that's just who he is. Now, would Obi-wan immediately spill is a whole other question, considering the political pitfalls of the situation, not to mention Anakin.
And in terms of the "gang" supporting Obi-wan if Qui-gon did leave? I have to think Anakin would 100% blame Obi-wan for pushing Qui-gon away, considering Anakin's hero-worship of Qui-gon. Ahsoka just doesn't know Qui-gon well enough to make a judgment, and would likely feel stuck in the middle of a very bizarre family feud that she only can catch the surface of.
All this is to say, I should get my ass in gear and finish "Hung." (Otherwise known as, let's win the lottery so I can quit my jobs and write full-time hahahahahaha).

the second i saw the temple mural in rebels i knew i had to do this
[Image ID: A mural-style drawing of Anakin, Obi-Wan and Ahsoka styled after the mural of the Mortis gods seen in Rebels. Ahsoka is on the right in her white robe and carrying her scepter, a morai perched on her shoulder. Obi wan is in the middle in his Jedi robes, one hand raised. The Jedi Order symbol is behind his head. Anakin stands on the right, with one half of his face obscured by his Darth Vader mask. His hand is clenched into a fist.]
Version without noise (along with me ranting about couple details I'm way too proud of) under the cut:
The beams of light are emanating from the Jedi Order symbol for Obi-Wan, but for Anakin and Ahsoka they are centred on Obi-Wan's heart
The beams emanating from Obi-Wan all reach the edge of the canvas, but for Anakin and Ahsoka some are incomplete
The colours circling their hands are indicative of their lightsaber colours
The light circling Anakin's hand is tinged blue in Obi-Wan's direction
The light circling Ahsoka's hand is primarily white, but tinged in green, and tinged blue in Anakin's direction

Ahsoka spacesuiting up and taking on starfighters with her lightsabers is exactly the kind of Disaster Lineage/Anakin's apprentice bullshit I've been wanting to see! They're so damn extra!

In that way, she fits right in,” -Huyang
Yeah, that tracks.

When I was a kid, I remember reading those old Star Wars character books and the section for yaddle said she often gave out candies to the younglings. Considering that her apprentice was cal’s master, I just picture her giving out candy to baby cal whenever he visited her with his master lol
omg YES and it's literally every 'coming back from grandma's house' meme ever,,
