Whumptober 24/31
prompt: fight, flight, freeze
fandom: Star Wars
words: 597
tw: terminal illness
a/n: This is a continuation of the last story.
It is all Obi-Wan can do to not simply collapse the second he steps foot inside his quarters because, despite the complete exhaustion he feels, he knows that wherever he does collapse he won’t be getting back up for a while and the doorway is not a good place to be found once Anakin or Ahsoka or Kix, someone, comes by to check on him.
The walk to the couch, however, is not easy. His legs are weak and his muscles tight. Walking turns into shuffling one foot slightly forward, taking a breath while the pain fades, and then pulling the other foot forward. His hips burn with each movement.
It’s a short walk, really, from the door to his couch but it takes ages with a body that’s slowly giving out.
He collapses onto the couch quite ungracefully, which even alone he would have chided himself for, but he doesn’t have the energy for it now. He feels like he’s been dueling with Anakin for hours, like after one of their lightsaber sessions when he was a teenager and desperate to improve. He could get so focused on a single maneuver and wouldn’t stop until he’d mastered it. Obi-Wan smiles at the thought. This whole situation is hard on the young man. Obi-Wan saw him go through a range of emotions when he stepped through the bridge door. He’d expected a rebuke, but his former Padawan kept his thoughts to himself.
Laying haphazard on the couch does little for the aches in his joints. It does allow him to catch his breath, however. Weeks of feeling his lung capacity shorten have trained him to breathe shallowly if he doesn’t want to see his vision narrow and feel lightheaded on a regular basis.
When the door chimes, he doesn’t have the energy to consider who it might be. There’s a limited number of people who would come by.
“Come,” he says as loudly as he can and starts coughing for the effort. He bends over when the coughing fit doesn’t stop at a few. It stretches his spine somewhat uncomfortably, but it irritates an already irritated throat. He might have fallen off the couch completely given his already precarious position on the couch if not for Anakin, who burst into motion as soon as he opened the door and saw Obi-Wan coughing.
Once the coughing fit ends, though Obi-Wan is still breathing delicately, Anakin lifts him onto the couch into a more comfortable position. As Obi-Wan lies there to calm his body from the coughing and the movement, Anakin disappears in a flurry of movement. A pillow shows up between his head and the armrest. A stack of his warmest blankets appears at his feet with a couple thrown over him. And then his boots are gone in the blink of an eye and the thick, grippy socks from the infirmary appear on his feet.
“Thank you,” Obi-Wan says carefully, not wanting to aggravate his lungs.
Anakin nods, mouth tight.
“I’m fine, Anakin,” Obi-Wan says reflexively, wanting to ease the younger man’s worry.
“Yes, of course. Everything’s fine.”
“I’m as fine as I can be right now.”
“You’d be better in the infirmary.”
“No. That wouldn’t change a thing,” Obi-Wan says calmly.
“At least not working then,” Anakin concedes.
“This is my choice, Anakin. There is nothing more that can be done and I’m okay with that. Everything dies at some point. My time will come as surely as yours or Rex’s or Yoda’s. There is nothing we can do except to accept it when it comes.”

Obi-Wan Hurt/Comfort and Whump Rec 1: Long Fics
Some of my favorite multi-chaptered or longer form fics (>10K). These are whump, sickfics, angst fics, and hurt/comfort with some very general tags and descriptions. Please make sure you note the tags on ao3 before reading.
I tried to tag everyone I could find here on tumblr, but if you see your fic and want a tag, let me know and I'll add it in. To all the writers, thank you for these fics, I have read each of them multiple times and I am fucking in love with all of them.
Here we go, in no particular order:
Good Man of War - scrapathon
Codywan, OC clones and medics, 16.2K
This fic is so well written and it has some really well-characterized OC clones, including clone medic Zero, as well as a bit of codywan (which I can't resist).
Things Hidden, Things Forgotten- sospes
Codywan, Zygerria/Kadavo arc, 23.5K
This writer has some of the best codywan fics on their roster, but this one absolutely destroys me everytime. This fic covers Zygerria and gets into some of the emotional aspects of the experience for Obi-Wan.
Shoulder the Sky - @kcrabb88
Quinobi, rewritten ending for Palpatine, 149.4K
This fic is part one of the Shoulder the Sky Verse series and is one of my favorite fics of all time. This fic is incredibly detailed, and every character get's their time in the spotlight. The Obi-Wan whump is absolutely delicious, and lasts basically the entirety of this fic. The plot follows Obi-Wan's discovery of the identity of Darth Sidious and how this changes the course of the end days of the Clone Wars.
Whispers from the Dead - @kcrabb88
Quinobi, PTSD and medical trauma, 210K as of 8.14.2023 (WIP)
Another part of the Shoulder the Sky Verse series (please read the fic above first). This fic is a WIP and every time there is a new chapter I drop everything to read it. Equally as emotionally damaging, equally as much whump, and equally perfect characterizations of every single character. I won't spoil the plot, but it's a perfect continuation of the series.
Gaping Hollow - Walpger
Gen - Obi-Wan, Cody, and Ahsoka, Force-exhaustion and hypothermia, 18.1K
Obi-Wan, Ahsoka, and Cody are trapped in a cave on the ice-planet Vandor and Obi-Wan uses the Force to keep them both warm and alive. This leads to impending Force-exhaustion. This is one of the earliest Obi-Wan-centric h/c fics I read and I love how the author describes Obi-Wan's use of the Force.
Enforced Convalescence - @swbumblebee
Gen - Obi-Wan, clones, and Jedi, sickfic/illness and fluff, 12.5K
Obi-Wan is ill and requires babysitting because he doesn't really know how to rest. This fic is endlessly soft, and Obi-Wan gets taken care of for once in his life. This author writes delightfully soft fics and this one is one of my absolute favorites.
Uja Nejah - @ijustreallylovedaredevil
Gen - Obi-Wan, OC clone medic Stim, clone troopers, Cody, diabetes and medical accuracy, 34.2K
Possibly my favorite fic of all time? Perhaps? Anything by whitchry9 is pure gold and this fic is only one example. This fic follows Obi-Wan's journey through his life as a Jedi diagnosed with diabetes. Deliciously whump, and my favorite OC clone medic, stim. You might as well read the whole series: a series of fics in which Obi Wan Kenobi having a disability somehow saves the galaxy
Iviin’hiibi te Tuur - @ijustreallylovedaredevil
Gen - Obi-Wan, OC clone medic Stim, clone troopers, Cody, epilepsy and medical accuracy, 16.4K
Surprise, surprise, yet another whitchry9 fic. This one is about Obi-Wan's life with epilepsy. This fic also has Stim and has a few extra oneshots that can be read with it.
every shadow - @kenobster
Gen - Obi-Wan, Anakin, Rex, Ahsoka, Cody, 501st, Zygerria/Kadavo arc and recovery, 34.9K as of 8.14.2023 (WIP)
This fic is a WIP and at 3/9 chapters, so I am going to to use part of the author's summary here: "during the mass casualty event following Kadavo and Zygerria, Obi-Wan and Anakin seek ways to cope with trauma." I am absolutely glued to this fic, and have already read all three chapters multiple times.
Finding Obi-Wan - @stolen-pen-name23
Gen - Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Ahsoka, amnesia and angst, 86.8K
For the record, I think I read the entirety of this fic in one day because I just couldn't put it down. In this fic, Obi-Wan loses his memory and finds himself in the lower levels of Coruscant.
something inside this heart has died (you're in ruins) - revanchxst (BadWolfGirl01)
Codywan (implied or pre-slash), Zygerria/Kadavo arc, 22.6K
In this fic, Cody joins Obi-wan on the Zygerria arc rather than Rex. Very painful with a sprinkling of codywan. 1000 kudos for this fic.
The Consequences of a Crash - happygiraffe
Gen or pre-slash Obi-Wan & Anakin, crash-landing injury/infection, 44.9K
ALRIGHT. Alright. This is the first long-fic I read in this fandom, and remains one of my favorites to this day. Delicious whump, a really wonderful look at Obi-Wan and Anakin's relationship, especially as Anakin has just become a Jedi Knight. I reread this one at least once a month.
See My Dreams All Die - @hellotemporaryuniverse
Obi-Wan & Cody (implied codywan), torture by Darth Sidious, 34.7K
This fic is absolutely brutal in the best way. In this fic, Anakin dies and Sidious is looking for a new apprentice. Such good whump.
From the Same Stone - @kckenobi
Gen - Obi-Wan & Anakin, concussion and poisoning, 8.1K
I'm already breaking my own rules, because this fic is under 10K, but this fic is one of my favorites and it's just long enough that it felt like it should be included on this list. In this fic, Obi-Wan and Anakin get trapped in a mine and are slowly ingesting a toxin.
|to failure, sweet victor| - littlekaracan
Codywan, angst and physical fights, 20K
This fic is as fucking bittersweet as it gets. Absolutely destroys me with every read. This fic follows Obi-Wan and Cody on Tatooine, but Cody's chip can't be removed until it has deteriorated to a certain point. As a result, sometimes Cody isn't quite himself.
battle scars - series - @calltomuster
Gen - Obi-Wan, Ahsoka, and Anakin, PTSD and medical trauma, 27.2K
This series gets into some of Obi-Wan's medical trauma and why avoids medical treatment. I can't get enough of the OC clone medic, Fuzzy, and I love how well the author writes Obi-Wan's PTSD.
shoulder the sky - series - Night_Fury
Codywan, Cerasi & Obi-Wan Kenobi & Nield, Qui-Gon & Obi-Wan, PTSD, temporary death, recovery, 196.1K
What can I say about this series? Probably too much. You will just need to read it to find out. Just read it.
chronic conditions - @deniigi
Codywan and clones, epilepsy and chronic illness, 13.1K
Yet another epileptic Obi-wan fic, this one through the lens of Kix and Cody. I am absolutely mesmerized by how this author writes, and I keep going back to this one over and over again.
Six Times Ahsoka Thought Her Grandmaster Was Dead, and the One Time He Actually Was - @pandora15 and lazarusII
Gen - Obi-Wan & Ahsoka, deathfic, 12.3K
The title says it all. You will be in pain.
heavy off a golden hue - @catboydogma
Codywan, hanahaki and chronic illness, 36.7K
This is a series which looks at Obi-Wan's life with chronic Hanahaki. This is such an amazing series, another set of fics I read in one sit-down.
Suddenly this is defeat - ealcynn
Gen, Landing at Point Rain and major injury, 13.3K
This fic is in first-person POV and does an incredible job of portraying Obi-Wan's perspective on the events based on the episode Landing at Point Rain.
This incessant snow - ealcynn
Gen, Landing at Point Rain and major injury, 20.7K
Part two to the above fic. Another extremely well-written fic. I absolutely adore the way Obi-Wan is written.
We Can Be Beautiful - OuzoAthena11
Codywan, panic attacks, 23.2K
The fic summary on ao3 says it best, "Five times Obi-Wan deals with anxiety or a panic attack and one time he causes minor anxiety in someone else." Really well written and soft fic.
Count My Little Scars I've Got Dozens Inside - nuclearturtle
Codywan (as adults), angst and de-aging, 27.1K
A de-aged Obi-Wan fic where Dooku attempts to gain his trust, but inevitably, doesn't. Very angsty. Extremely angsty.
Conjuring Miracles - @kcrabb88
Gen - Obi-Wan, Leia, Tala, Vader, PTSD, 29.8K
Another one by this author. In this fic, Tala doesn't get to Obi-Wan in time, and he ends up being taken with Leia to the the inquisitor base. There, he encounters Vader.
Rapture - @galateagalvanized
Codywan, depowered character, 62.5K
I think the summary on ao3 says it best, "An independent terrorist cell has developed a weapon capable of severing the bond between a Jedi and the Living Force. They test it on High General Obi-Wan Kenobi." Wonderful whump mixed with a great story, and of course, codywan.
Always Gold - happygiraffe
Gen - Obi-Wan & Anakin, terminal illness/cancer, 10K
In this fic, Obi-Wan is dying of cancer and just wants the best for his padawan. Prepare yourself, this one hurts.
As an Obi-Wan whump writer myself, I can't help but throw a couple of my own here (not that these are by any means on par with the quality of the incredible fics above). I have linked a couple below if you are interested:
orbit me slowly
Codywan, burns and recovery, 15.3K
After an injury leaves Obi-Wan down and out, he realizes that time isn't as unlimited as he once believed
green is the colour
Codywan, sickfic and injury, 14K
Obi-Wan, sick with the flu, is cornered by hundreds of droids. Cody and Anakin come to his rescue, but there is unresolved tension between them.
Hope you all enjoy this list!

Star Wars takes I’m sick of seeing:
1. When a Jedi chooses to no longer follow the path of a Jedi, they are automatically a Sith. That’s like saying if you are no longer a practicing Jew, you’re automatically a Catholic. Being a Sith has a specific set of beliefs and doctrines that must be followed, the same as being a Jedi. One can choose to no longer be a Jedi and *not* be evil or Fallen in any way, shape, or form, and this does not make them a bad person.
2. That if the Jedi were just a bit more Mandalorian, it would have Solved All Their Problems and prevented Anakin from Falling. Usually this means that if the Jedi just showed more emotion/weren’t emotionally repressed/if Obi-Wan just told Anakin he loved him/was proud of him, Anakin wouldn’t have made the decision on multiple occasions to slaughter children. There are so many “fix it” fics where this is the underlying theme.
3. Likewise, the Jedi repress their emotions. The Jedi teach their students to be *mindful* of their emotions, to not react based on a person’s first initial knee jerk response. They asked Anakin to have the same level of emotional control as a kindergartener--you don’t get to punch someone because they took your favorite toy and broke it.
3. When Mandalorians adopt children (with or without parental permission) and indoctrinate them into their culture of weaponry and violence, it’s cute; when the Jedi adopt children (usually with parental permission) and teach them to control their emotions and their psychic powers based on those emotions, they’re an evil child-snatching cult. Only the Mandalorians are capable of forming a family bond and despite being communally raised, the Jedi are incapable of forming those same bonds, probably because of all that emotional repression. But if you violate the rules of the Mandalorians, you are cast out of said “family”, whereas even someone like Darth Vader was offered a way home.
4. Love = Attachment. Attachment is about greed and possession. We are told *and* shown on multiple occasions that you can love someone and let them go. Obi-Wan does it multiple times. But when you go beyond love, when you refuse to accept loss, whether it’s external like death or internal like someone choosing to leave you, that’s when you move into Attachment, and *that* is what leads to the Dark side.
ETA, because apparently I wasn’t done:
5.  The Jedi Order, which has existed for tens of thousands of years, should change everything about itself and its doctrines to suit one kid who doesn’t actually care about following other people’s rules in any circumstance.
6. Anakin Skywalker is the only Jedi who ever treated the clones like Real People, despite several blatant examples showing otherwise, and the fact that he was totally chill with them having their identities and free will stripped away from them. But because he was the only one who was Raised By A Real Mother, he’s the only one capable of showing compassion to other people.
7. That because they have accelerated aging, this makes the clones child soldiers. If they were completely non-human, no one would blink an eye at the idea of a species maturing at a different rate than humans. So they’ve only been alive for ten years? That does not make them children. Grogu has been alive for over 50 years and he’s still a toddler. Calling them children is infantilizing and demeaning. 
8. Listen, I love whumping on Obi-Wan as much as the next fangirl, but I’m kinda getting tired of the whole “Obi-Wan never goes to medical/doesn’t sleep/doesn’t remember to eat” thing. He raised a whole ass padawan to adulthood. We have never actually seen him deny himself medical care, sleep, or food. He might work longer hours during the war, but so does everyone else. And the only reason I can justify him not eating isn’t because he “forgets” so much as the poor guy probably has a terrible case of decision fatigue. If all he has to do is walk to the chow hall and get served what everyone else is being served, I don’t think he’d have that much of a problem. There are, of course, extenuating circumstances to all of these based on any prior trauma he may or may not have, but otherwise it’s infantilizing.
This post is brought to you in part by fandom as well as interacting with members of the Star Wars costuming groups.

It’s been over half a year since I did a set of STAR WARS fic recs that weren’t pairing-focused, but I have been reading fic along the way! And sometimes you want fic that’s not about ships, no matter how much you love them, sometimes you just want to read about friendships or you want to read some cool worldbuilding or you only want the plot, and Star Wars fandom has been lovely about that. Hell, sometimes you just want to cry about how much you love the Jedi and you want to share that affection with other people, through the incredible experience of telling stores about them, like they were trying so hard and they were right about so many things and they were dying for years to try to help the galaxy, and teaching about how emotional regulation is good actually, and sometimes you want to show that through the disaster trio and sometimes you want to yell about how good Mace Windu is and sometimes you want to love frog grandpa and sometimes you want to get into a fistfight to defend Luminara’s honor and sometimes you want the whole Order sitting down to a family dinner and sometimes you want fic where Anakin and Mace actually get along and so many other things! So, here’s a collection of some excellent fic that I think most people should be able to find at least something to enjoy, whether you’re looking for fun disaster lineage shenanigans or heartbreaking pain because Star Wars Is Pain or some awesome Jedi Order worldbuilding or some all too rare Mace Windu Appreciation fic, I HOPE YOU ENJOY.

Enigma// ch 20
anakin x reader
Tumblr media
a/n: i’m not a medical professional so don’t mind in accurate info lmfaooo- there is barf in this chapter only because i’m trying to make it realistic to what actually occurs after these procedures ( plus i kinda like writing whump lol)
The extent of Anakin’s condition is revealed and you wait for him to stabilize
warnings: cursing, alcohol abuse, emtephobia (barf and stuff…), hospitals, alcohol poisoning
_______________________________
“Ben!” you called when you spotted the bearded man sitting in the waiting room. 
“Y/n, Ahsoka- You two didn’t have to come, I could hav-”
“No, I want to be here” you interrupted. 
“Where is he?” Ahsoka asked.
“He’s still being treated, but they said a room should be ready for him soon”.
“Did they tell you his evaluation? What’s happening to him?” you asked.
“Yes, they concluded it was severe alcohol poisoning, enough to trigger a seizure and enough that he went into an alcoholic coma… I’m not sure for how long, but he definitely could have died.”
“How much did he have to drink to be in a fucking coma?!” Ahsoka exclaimed. 
“I’m not sure, but this is the most he’s ever drank,” Ben answered sadly, “but in addition he must have hit his head when he fell because he also sustained a mild concussion. “
Ahsoka seemed more frustrated than sad at the moment, “Un-fucking-believable!” she huffed. 
“Of course he was fucking drinking. I tell him he needs to go back to rehab or he at least needs some help, but does he listen to me...? No! And now here he is- going into a coma over it”.
You felt awful about Anakin’s admittance to the hospital, but you also understood the frustration Ash was feeling. She crossed her arms aggressively and tilted her face away, but you couldn’t help but hear her sniffles. 
“Ash?” you called, gently turning her towards you. Tears streamed down her face as her bottom lip quivered. 
“Ash…” you sighed, pulling her into your chest. 
“I-I try s-so hard to help him- but h-he…. I ju-just don’t want him to d-ie” she cried into your shoulder. 
Her outburst of emotion hit you in the feels and in turn made you teary as well; Ben came up and rubbed Ahsoka’s arm in comfort.
“I know Ahsoka. I know”.
_________________________________________
Days passed and Anakin was finally released from the ICU to a normal hospital room; it had a nice view of the city and good natural lighting. The room was equipped with a sofa and armchair as well as Anakin’s bed (of course). 
For the past few days you had taken residence in his room; sleeping on the couch and keeping spare clothes in a duffle bag, just to keep an eye on him.
You were the one to stay with him everyday because Ben and Satine had work and Ash had training camp.
Honestly, you only offered since they were all busy and you really had nothing else to do. 
The sofa was definitely an inconvenience for you, it was hard, didn’t have much space, and your back already hurt from the extra weight of your belly. 
You yawned and stretched your arms as you sat up from the couch beside Anakin’s bed.  
Taking Anakin’s reduced body size into account, the effects of the alcohol he consumed were amplified. His coma had lasted for 5 days and they continually pumped his stomach as well as gave him plenty of IV fluids.
Since they had gotten his vitals back to normal (relatively), he was predicted to wake up any day. 
Anakin looked so weak wrapped in the white sheets, a breathing tube sticking out of his mouth, wires connected to him, and tubes coming from every which way.
You had seen him without his prosthetics before, but the harsh hospital atmosphere made it all the more noticeable, you knew he would hate that he was disassembled when he woke. 
You heard a noise coming from Anakin and you saw his eyes weakly opening and closing as he choked on the tube down his throat. Immediately you jumped up and called nurses into the room. 
You weren't sure how conscious he was but you did know he was definitely scared. After a while you were let back into the room and told that he may be vomiting for the next few hours from all of the stomach pumps, concussion, and other shit that had happened. The head nurse told you that it was normal but to notify them if there was blood in the throw up. 
You thanked each nurse for watching over him and entered the room, fully prepared to take care of him.
He was lying in the same position he was earlier, but now he just had an oxygen tube running under his nose instead of the breathing tube.
You approached him and found his eyes were closed- he was probably resting. 
He threw up on and off for the next few hours, but it was the last time that was the worst. 
You grabbed one of the bins they gave you as you wondered if he was even cognizant enough to comprehend what was happening.
The dull room was on the chilly side but you could see the sheen of sweat forming on his brow, he was fighting so hard. 
You grabbed a cloth and went to dab at his forehead when he coughed, your eyes widened as you used your arms to sit him up so he wouldn’t choke. He coughed some more and began to drool, you grabbed a can and held it in front of him as you helped hold him up. His eyes were still closed and his head rested on your shoulder until you leaned him over the bin when he started to retch. 
You really had never been able to be around throw up without feeling sick to your stomach, but this was different: all you could think about was how you wanted it to be over so he could finally rest. 
His head was in the can and you rubbed his back as his body shook with the violent rolls of nausea. 
After a few minutes he finally finished and you put the bin on the ground so you could help him lie back down.
The metal can was definitely heavier than when you had originally given it to him, but you would have to take care of that bag later, now you need to focus on Anakin. 
He was almost about to fall over when you got back from setting the can down so you rushed to his side and grabbed one of the many washcloths the nurses had left in the room for this very occasion. 
His eyes were unfocused and barely open: that answered your question, he was not cognizant.
He groaned as you wiped his mouth and brushed his soft curls back; slick with his sweat. 
“Shh, shh, it’s going to be ok, Ani” you comforted, helping him lie back down. 
You rolled him onto his side just in case he started again and brushed your fingers through his hair. His brows were kneaded together and he was shaking; this was bad. 
A frown found its way onto your face as you watched him suffer, you never wanted him to have to go through this. 
After a few more minutes you removed your warm hand from him and went to assess the bin- there was no blood, so at least that was a good sign.
You stepped into the hall to call a nurse but there was already one there who had a custodian on the way. You thanked her and the custodian for being so patient with Anakin and you. 
After everything was sanitized you went back to sitting beside Anakin, you scanned his face for any signs of coherency but he was still really out of it.
The only sign of emotion was the small tears that fell from the corners of his closed eyes. 
______________________________________
Anakin tried to open his eyes but there was a blinding light shining down; he tried to speak but no words were forming. 
You noticed his rasping from the chair beside his bed and quickly jumped up and went to his side. He was attempting to pull off his oxygen tube but you stopped him and gently placed your hands on his face. With you blocking the overhead light, he could finally open his eyes. 
“Anakin?” you asked, trying to make sure he was actually up. 
He hummed and glanced around until he saw the IV pole and realized he was in the hospital quicker than you could have imagined his vitals went crazy. You backed up in shock as he tussled around in the bed, attempting to get out. You knew he had PTSD from being in the hospital during his recovery, but you didn’t expect it to be as bad as it clearly was. 
“Anakin it’s alright!” you tried to calm him, but he was too scared. 
Soon a team of nurses rushed in and took over before he could hurt himself; they ushered you out in the process. You texted Ben and Ahsoka to let them know that he was awake.
Once he was settled, you were allowed back in; his bed was propped up so that he was sitting and he had his head turned away from the door. 
Gingerly, you walked towards him as you tried to think of what to say. 
“Anakin?” 
Nothing. 
You sighed.
“Look, I know I'm the last person you want to see right now but putting that aside, I needed to know that you were going to be alright…”
Finally, he met your eyes.
“Did you put me in here?” he asked, more sadly than accusatory.
“No, Ben found you and called 911” 
He nodded, “I don’t remember- I don’t know what happened. I just woke up and you were there with lights shining from behind you”. 
Your face formed a sad smile, “you had severe alcohol poisoning. You were non-responsive…a-and your pulse was gone.”
His brows furrowed as he tried to comprehend what you were saying. 
“They had to pump your stomach and when they finally got your vitals back up, you had already slipped into a coma” you explained.
“People don't just go into a coma from alcohol, surely it had to be something else” he protested.
“Anakin, you had a blood alcohol concentration of .57…. Your average is .15” 
He looked up to the ceiling and laid his head back onto the pillow. 
“Fuck” he exclaimed. 
“Anakin, you can’t keep doing this-”
“I know,” he interjected with a frustrated tone. 
He took a breath and began to cough; he continued and you stepped closer, “Anakin, do you need your inhaler, I can go get-”
“I'm -” he coughed once more, “fine”.
You took another step closed and laid a gentle hand on the end of his arm stump but he quickly retracted his limb from your reach. You flinched and looked at him with wide eyes, you only meant to comfort him. 
His blue eyes looked more fearful than angry, what was going on?
His gaze traveled from your perplexed face down towards your growing stomach; his pupils dilated slightly before he took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
“Please leave”
“But Anak-”
“Please” he pleaded, refusing to look at you. 
Your teeth gently bit down on your lower lip and you nodded, slowly heading for the door.
At the entrance, you rested a hand on the door frame and caught one last look at the man in the bed; tubes and medical tape all over his body, the hospital grade blue gown, even his sandy curls looked sad.
You had never seen him look so helpless, so dejected; surely he was lost in thought- to him this was probably torture. 
He already hated hospitals, but now he couldn’t even entertain himself with his phone. In addition, the doctors weren’t allowing him to put on his prosthetics yet.
He wanted nothing more than to just go home and sleep. 
As for you, you just wanted the father of your child to be able to recover and hopefully reign in his deadly addiction.

I wrote some whumps about my AU idea suddenly appeared in my head. You might need to read the link to understand my work.
Neyo's POV
Anakin/Padme, Implied Codywan
Ahsoka was there when it started so suddenly.
She and her Master, were waiting for the Council’s replies for their information about hunting for Maul.
The waiting was getting too long, and it was a lie if Ahsoka was not concerned about what was happening to their home. She joked about how fast Master Mace would reply to insult Anakin for anything reckless he did, but there was silence, too long. It was strange.
Sensing his Padawan's worry, Anakin gave her a reassuring smile. Obi-wan was also comm silent, when he checked. The Force was silent. But at least his Ahsoka and troopers were there with him, waiting in debrief room.
The war was ending. He could feel it. He had been tested many times, always wandering between light and dark of the Force, with his uncontrollable emotions through war and pains. In the end, when Palpatine, his now former friend, casually referred the Clones as a slaves who needed to be gone for a better future of Galaxy, Anakin finally snapped, rushed to Padme and told her he couldn't do this. Couldn't sacrifice his troopers for meaningless war anymore, couldn't see another families, another Jedis die for people who now not even care for them, almost hate them for false facts. No, they not wanted to blame Jedi and Clones for some rumors. They just needed justification for forcing Jedis and Clones to fight the war instead of them. And needed scapegoat to throw their angers made by long lasted war. Anakin couldn't understand why they needed to fight for the Republic anymore. Padme only hugged him, telling him that he was not alone, he was not the only Jedi who thinks this war like him. Soon Obi-wan came there after receiving Padme's secret comm massage. Anakin was afraid that Obi-wan might have caught his relationship with Padme, but Obi-wan just hugged him as well, telling his old Padawan that it would be alright.
And of course, there was angry debate with Council about his secret marriage, and he actually admitted that it was too reckless to hide it(which surprisingly made Mace looked shocked somehow), and for Anakin's sanity, they agreed to postpone this issue until end of the war. He would never forget the faces of the Council members' when he informed them about the child that Padme was carrying.(And the suppressed delight from a few members. Yes, like Master Plo Koon.)
Anakin was afraid, what would the Council decide for his fate, and Padme's and child's fate. In his cold head he knew he couldn't continue being Jedi Knight if he couldn't let go of his relationship. Maybe, it might be right to choose his family, if it's the true ones that give him joy and reason for living. It would be heartbreaking for leaving his long lived home, his another families, but he can make a touch with his Master and Ahsoka, maybe more freely with his emotions.
He knew it was not the shame thing to leave the Orders. When Barris got caught by Ahsoka before she was planning for bombing, she told her friend about her rage and despair, about how war changed them, how they keep this war continue and made more lives be suffered. Ahsoka was shocked by her words, and when Barris had long talk(if you could tell tearful shoutings as a talking) with her Master and meditated(if you could tell cuddling and napping together as a meditating) in a comfortable room for a long time, Ahsoka chose to leave her home, to rethink about her long laster questions in her mind. Anakin wanted to stop her, raged about how she left him, but in the end, he waited for her. And in the end, like Master Plo said, she came back to her Master.
And he also would never forget the face of Ahsoka when he and Obi-wan casually informed her that she would be aunt in a few months. No wonder she refused to talk with him for 3 days straight outside of debriefing.(But at least she talked to Padme with communication.)
If the war ends, many things will be changed, Anakin thought. Maybe not only in good way, but they would be changed, and the Order will be changed, and maybe the Republic will be changed. In a peaceful time, they could take care of themselves more properly. Padme and her fellow senators could talk about the agendas, like supporting devastated planets and sentients suffered through the war, the slavery problems, and giving the basic rights to Clones. His family could live in peace, no more worrying about the bombs and fires, death and pains.
Suddenly, Anakin's comm beeped.
Anakin checked his massage, it was from Obi-wan. He finally replied? That took a long time, too long time, considering that his Master already killed Grievous and joined his troopers a long time ago. The massage was text, which means they wouldn't be live chatting.
Something was wrong, Anakin thought as soon as he read about the massage from his Master.
'Betrayed. Don't trust the Republic. Hide with your Clones.'
Anakin looked to Ahsoka, who was alwo reading the massage in her communication. Her confused eye met with Anakin. What was Obi-wan telling them? Don't trust the Republic? Hide with Clones?
"General!"
Rex's desperate calling made Jedis snapped out from their mind. The Force was screaming, all over the places, in whole galaxy. Anakin looked to his Captain with alerted posture.
"We got a situation! Our troopers outside... they are being attacked by GAR, the Netborn troopers are attacking them!!"
Anakin finally came out of his shock, hurried to the closed door with his light saber in his hand. Ahsoka followed him, still confused and trembling.
"Master, what are you going to do?"
"The Republic betrayed us. We need to escape."
Anakin was surprised how he was calm after he learned the fact that the Republic finally back stabbed them. It was like he knew they would do this in some day, and the doubt was in his mind from long time ago. He didn't have time to explain more to his Padawas, not his mans. He needed to protect them, and save them from betrayals.
"Master, did the GAR really...?"
"Take your saber, snips. We will protect the troopers until we reach the transportation."
Ahsoka did not make anymore questions. She ignited her saber like her Master, face determined for her friends. Rex also nobbed with his nervous face, and wore his helmet and ordered his troopers around.
"You heard the General, keep behind our Jedis and protect your brothers!"
"Oya!" The short chorus of troopers filled in room. Anakin took a last look behind him, checking if his Padawan and troopers ready, and finally opened the Door.
The corridor was still clear, but in distance, they could hear the firing shots and shoutings and cries.
Anakin wasn't sure how many of them would escape from this madness, how many were already gone, but he needed to save as many as can.
He was still Jedi, and as a Jedi, he protected the lives.
Cody watched in horror as his General fell down to waterfall. His troopers were also shocked in silence, until the bombs also fired to their side. Only a few of them managed to escape from position in one piece. Cody could hear his troopers screaming in confusion, screaming in pain as their body burned down and crushed by explosions. The desperate begging of their brothers to let them go and leave, telling them it's too late to save them. Cody forcefully dragged his shinies from wreckage, hiding in smoke. He needed to survive, he needed to find out what is happening to them. He needed to find his General, he couldn't be dead. The Jedi was always tough and crazy people, and Obi-wan would not die from this.
In the cover firing of his brothers, Cody and a few of troopers managed to get down to waterfall's downside. The lake was too peaceful, there was no body on ground or even on water. Where was his General? He couldn't be dead, Cody shouted for his General again and again. He couldn't, not even before-
And suddenly, the light dumping sound heard from their behind. Cody and his troopers turned around with their weapons on, but draw them down fast as they looked at their General standing in front of them with awkward smile.
"At easy, everyone. I'm here for peace."
Cody approached to Obi-wan, not caring about the distance bombing sounds, about the surprised face of his General as he moved, he just checked his General's body if he was hurt, if he was bleeding deeply in anywhere, if he was not the hallucination or the ghost or whatever. He needed to check that his General was alive.
"I'm in one piece, Cody. I'm here."
"General."
Cody looked to Obi-wan's face with a trembling voice.
"The GAR, they attacked us. They called us betrayal, and attacked you."
"I have no doubt about those facts. That somehow we Jedis and you Clones became the worst enemy of the Republic."
Obi-wan tried to remain his cool in this situation, but only Cody could notice that his General's voice was slightly in distress.
"Have you contacted with other Generals, sir?"
"They are comm silence. I managed to sent them a warning massage, but I'm not certain that how many of them will receive them before it's too late."
If the whole GAR, the Republic was chasing and hunting down them... Cody swallow his nervousness and tried to keep his calm. He needed to protect his General. He needed to lead his troopers to safe. He needed to think and act fast.
Obi-wan, sensing his dear Commander's anxiety and despair, he placed his both hands on Cody's shoulders, with the reassuring pressure. And gave him a warm smile.
"We are still alive, and together in here. I know we are all confused, but we will make this, Commander."
Cody nobbed. With his General, Ghost company can hide and survive under this madness. They will make it. Like always.
Cody's comm beeped, he checked the comm quickly. The massage from his brother, Rex. He was sending Clones the massage. Massage about the places they will gather, the warning about the Republic, the promises that they will meet soon alive. One of his brother was safe, at least this moment.
"General, I received massage from Captain Rex, they informed about a few places we will gather again."
Obi-wan's face had brightened for sudden. Cody could see his General worry about his old Padawan and grand Padawan. But he knew that even Rex was alive didn't mean that his General or Commander were alive together for sure. But they were one of the finest battalions in whole GAR, Cody just wished that many of 501st could make alive from Madalore.
"I suppose we need to meet another battalion, but I need to contact senators first."
By Obi-wan's voice, Vody looked at him with surprise while they were walking hurriedly under covering fire.
"Are you insane? The whole Republic is now our enemy, they will sell us!"
"Not all of them. I trust few of those people."
Cody rolled his eyes under helmet. His General wasn't really believing that they were safe to contact now?
"This is not about asking helps or supports. We may need to protect them as well."
Obi-wan told him with desperate voice. He never used those voice to Cody. He was professional Jedi, and the General who commanded whole battalion in harassing warzone. Cody finally looked to his General. Under the shadows and dusks, he finally saw his General's now exhausted and broken face.
"I need to contact to Padme. She was in danger as well, the Coruscant guards are protecting senators, but..."
"They are attacking senators too?"
"Only the ones who denied Chancellor. He ordered to execute everything who tries to stop this purge."
So the Chancellor was behind all of this. That bastard.
Now his other brothers are fighting in Coruscant, where was also Jedi's temple been placed. Fox always complained about how Chancellor blamed Jedis, and how he abused him and brothers to erase their individuality, and letting many netborn mess with them. He needed to shot that asshole, or at least let his brother commit his long wish.
Suddenly, Cody realized important fact. He got terrified from them.
"If Jedis in Coruscant are under attack... The Temple, they are being attacked now, right...?"
Obi-wan just nobbed, not answering with his voice anymore. If the Temple was being attacked, so many Padawans and younglings were also there, which means... No, if Coruscant guard decided to protect the senators, they would have gone to protect the Temple as well. They would never abandon Jedis, not after they saved Clones from slavery of chips.
Cody placed his hand to Obi-wan's neck, and gently dragged him, meeting their forehead in silence, despite the sounds of firing and bombing from distance. Troopers didn't stopped them, they knew they needed those small comforts for now. Cody spoke again after minute of silence.
"We will follow you. We will save them with you, General."
"I never doubted."
Obi-wan managed to answer with a wet voice.
"You are my gorgeous Commander, Cody."
Plo would never understand how he could manage to survive that crashing, When his troopers couldn't.
Maybe the warning, beeped in his communication suddenly, or maybe his sense from his species biology, or maybe the shoutings from his Wolfpack, calling him to get down from sky, or maybe because of his wingman's attempt to shield his General from fires behind them.
When Plo managed to gather conscious, he was being dragged by several strong arms from his former fighter's wreckage. He soon noticed, that the armors surrounding him were not grey like 104th's nor green like 442nd's. They were white like light, so they were Shinies. Confused with his still spinning head, he looked around, not noticing that he was crashed down directly to the Clone training position. Some troopers were injured or buried under wrecks, moaning or not making any sounds. Not even moving in pain. Plo sat up from his position in alert, despite the huge pains felt in everywhere in his body, but one Shiny pushed him down quickly.
"No, General. You can't stand right now!"
"The troopers... they are..."
"It's too late. You can't help them, not right now. We need to patch you first."
"Don't care about me, help your brothers. They need more help than me."
Shiny hesitated, not convinced while seeing Kel-Dor is gravelly injured by full force crashing. But Plo didn't care. He would not see anymore troopers suffered because of him, not after the Malevolence, not after Khorm.
Sudden explosion sound made them all trembled in area. Shinies looked around, confused and scared, and saw the Republic bombers approaching toward them from distance. The bombing was getting closer. Too closer.
Plo somehow knew what they were planning, despite he didn't really want to believe, but he shouted the warning to troopers around him, like the time when the original 104th were attacked by Malevolence.
"Brace for an impact!!"
Some Shinies throw themselves under the wreckage, but many of them couldn't move because of their injuries of the wreck which were pressing them on ground. Some Shines desperately attempted to drag their brothers from harm, but they knew, even with their own attached two legs, they would never be able to run away from bombing. The Shiny who was kneeling next to Plo tried to drag Jedi, only failing by the one last wreck that was trapping Plo's right arm in a twisted way.
"Go, hide from bombing now!"
Plo used his commanding voice to reason trooper, but the Shiny shaked his head and tried to move the wreck. It was too heavy for one man to lift. The bomber's sound was getting closer, Plo knew that it was too late for them to run away. So he did what he still could do: he threw himself on top of the Shiny, covering human with his own body. It was meaningless protest, but if the Force has mercy, Plo would give him all his Force to save this royal and brave trooper. He couldn't let him die.
The huge explosion heard from distance. Plo carefully looked up from ground, only seeing the bomber now going down with smoke coming from inside. And a few of fighters and gunships(Plo could notice the drawing in distance: Plo's bros, he never could miss that) were chasing it from side, and now approaching toward them with careful control.
The ships landed in distance, and right after that, the troopers inside ran out to Shinies, checking them and helping to move. In one of the fighter, one Commander shot out from the seat and ran to his General. Plo never felt this grateful to see his Commander again.
"General!!"
Wolffe almost threw himself to Plo's side. He quickly checked the situation, and helped Shiny to remove the wreck, finally freeing Plo's arm from restraint. The arm was twisted to the wrong side, but Plo still couldn't feel much of pain, maybe because of the shock. Wolffe assisted his General to stand up with Shiny in other side, and yelled to 104th and Shinies.
"Everyone, prepared to evacuation! We have limited places in gunships, so only immovable injured take the seats! The others will move on road under covering fire from Wolfpack!"
Many Shinies were still not aware of the situation, and some of them were too shocked to act anything, just blankly staring to Commander. Plo knew their reactions, and Wolffe did too, he also had experience with the shock from so much pain and grief. But there was no time to comfort or hug his brothers right now. They needed to escape and survive.
And Wolfpack will do anything to rescue his brothers, like they always did.
"I will be the one to lead the evacuation! If you have moving legs, assist your injured brother to gunships! We don't have much time, hurry!!"
The final shout from Commander made many Clones snapped out from shock, and they quickly moved to gather their brothers or move wreckages on Clones. Adove them, the remaining fighters were fighting with GAR to buy more times for evacuation.
Wolffe finally managed to drag his General to one of their Gunship. Comet on the ship dragged Plo in to seat and quickly checked his injuries. Sinker also appeared next to him, pulling out the medikit and bacta patches.
" You are really lucky to survive this, sir. This is a real mess."
"Is it fatal?"
Comet asked with worry in his voice.
"No, thankfully. At least in this situation. We have a lot more brothers in worse shape."
Sinker admitted with bitterness, placing patches in the worst of Plo's burns. The ship was already fully loaded with injured troopers, moaning and crying in pain and exhaustion. In the distance, Wolffe's voice heard again.
"Alright, that's everyone! Pilots, prepare for evacuation. The fighters will assist you until all Gunships arrive at the destination!"
With a quick answering, pilots moved to their ships. Warthog arrived at the Gunship where Plo was, with other Wolfpack members.
"General, I hope you don't mind some sickness. It will be a harsh ride."
"I have missed your unhindered driving as well, Warthog."
Plo's answer somehow managed Warthog to huff his little laughing despite the situation. He quickly moved to pilot's position while Wolffe and Boost approached to their pack.
"We will spread our team. Me and Boost will lead the evacuation on road, while you, Comet and Sinker take command of Gunships."
"Sir..."
Comet made protesting voice, but Wolffe stopped him with his hand up.
"They're no safe way in any way, and you need to lead the brothers, Comet. This is a difficult situation, but we still have the chance that we will all survive. We need to try best for this."
Like Malevolence, when their brothers were almost gone, and with no hope of being rescued or be founded, but Plo encourage them to never give up, and fight till the end for their survival, not losing their hope.
Plo never felt so proud of his mans. How they became stronger and braver despite the cruelty of this galaxy trying to smuggle them to dark.
Comet didn't argue anymore, and nobbed with determination. Sinker also nobbed and looked to Boost.
"Don't boost yourself without me."
"Hah, don't sink yourself when there's no me to drag your ass back."
Plo could feel the Wolffe's eyes rolling under his helmet.
Wolffe looked toward his General, one last moment, and raised his hand to gather Kel-Dor's hand together.
"Safe travel. And please watch my pack's back, General Plo."
"May the Force be with you all as well, Commander Wolffe."
He really wished for all of them to be with the Force. To the Force be with all of them.
I needed to write more but im tired sorry
Q. Plo's part is suspiciously longer
A. I beg your forgiveness. Wolfpack were my favorites and i couldn't help it

Excerpt:
The boy squinted and leaned back in the chair, resting his forearms on the table "You know Djarin, I came here to be alone." He said flatly making Din's stomach clench. As Luke started drumming his fingers on the table Din looked down at those hands he found beautiful, observing them, Luke was wearing silver rings, three to be precise, one on the right thumb, one on the right index finger and the third one on the left middle finger, and he was also wearing black nail polish, a little chipped at the tips, and Din had to look away to suppress the impulse to reach out and brush his fingers against Luke's. Now his eyes were fixed on Luke's datapad and he could see what the boy was reading about.
"Tatooine, huh?" He looked up at him, half smiling and raising his eyebrows.
Luke leaned forward covering the datapad with his arms, he hummed.
"Have you been to Tatooine?" Din insisted and Luke shrugged.
Chapter 3: The secret
Leia sat up on the mattress abruptly, breathless, something has roused her from a deep sleep in the middle of the night.
"Luke." She gasped jumping out of the bed as an unpleasant feeling settled in her gut. She couldn't figure out what was exactly causing it, still she was certain that Luke needed her.
When she finally opened the door to her brother's bedroom she could see Luke stirring beneath the sheets even when the only light bathing his room was the moonlight filtered in through the heavy curtains, she swallowed hard taking a few steps forward, her little hands resting on the end of the mattress, and she touched Luke's foot through the sheets "Luke. Please, wake up." She nudged his leg with her hands but the only response she got was that Luke was squirming in his bed now and her heart skipped a beat when the boy started whining.
"Gods, Luke, it's me, Leia." She said walking around the bed to cup his face with her hands and she could feel a low rumble in Luke's chest before he opened his eyes screaming, and before she could say a word something pushed her backwards with such violence that her little body hit the floor. She groaned. She looked up only to find Luke staring at her, still on the bed, levering himself up onto his hands, he was breathing hard, his dark hair plastered against his forehead, he frowned at Leia as realization crossed his features. Leia moved a little and Luke ran towards her trying to grab her by her upper arms, she could feel the way her ankle started throbbing painfully now. She sat up on the floor boring into Luke's eyes "You used the force." She said under her breath, Luke's hands tensed up against her. "You used the force against me."
"No." He said tightening his grip around her arms.
"You have no control over it. You're out of control." She frowned rolling back her shoulders in order to urge Luke to let go of her.
Luke's mouth set in a hard line, not breaking eye contact with her.
Then her eyes softened, she tilted her head "You're in pain." She said as her hand found Luke's cheek and the boy blinked astonished. "Oh, Luke. What had he done to you?" She asked stroking his skin.
"I didn't mean it." He looked down avoiding her gaze and he moved his head slightly, escaping her touch "Are you hurt?" Luke was now hauling her to her feet.
"Luke, please, talk to me." Leia insisted.
"Just answer me, dammit! Are you hurt?" Luke's eyes looked glossy now.
"I'm not hurt, for fuck's sake! I need you to trust me. I'm here. What was that Luke? What happened?"
Luke pouted and crouched down before her, unclasping her walking boot "You're gonna need ice." He caressed her injured ankle "Fuck! I'm so sorry, Leia."
Leia sighed realizing that Luke wouldn't open himself up to her. At least not yet.
~
"I'm screwed Leia, you keep talking about this galactic trade law but I can't memorize jack shit." Din dropped his holopen sighing defeated when he saw Luke entering the living room and he locked eyes with him, casually raising his arms above his head and he leaned back sinking in the big couch, resting the back of his head on his hands, fingers intertwined as he exposed his chest and neck, still staring at the boy pointedly. He heard Luke groaning, it was a subtle sound, almost inaudible but it fueled Din's fantasies in a heartbeat, and now he couldn't stop thinking about Luke making cute little noises beneath him, his body pressing against Luke's, pleasuring him. Then he remembered that Leia was still right beside him and when Luke disappeared into the corridor, he looked at her sideways, finding that she was as lost in thought as he had been a second ago.
"What is it, Lei?" He asked leaning forward and moving his arms to rest a hand on his friend's shoulder.
She shook her head "Never mind. We can talk about it some other time, now, you need to learn this shit." She pointed at her datapad.
In fact Din could have learned by heart that ridiculously long, never-ending law all by himself, but he spent the whole Saturday longing to see Luke again after the Mando party and by Sunday he couldn't withstand the urge to go to Leia's place and wait for Luke, the dark angel that shared a Junipera with him in the privacy of his room, to show up. And Luke showed up, twice.
An hour later Luke crossed the living room wearing a white hoodie that framed his cute face in a way that had Din swooning over him.
"I'm going for a walk." Luke said casting a glance at his sister, Leia nodded and the moment Luke closed the front door behind him, Din was already packing up his stuff.
"Uh-" He said standing up and zipping his satchel "Paz is gonna kill me, I promised him I was going to help him with statistics. It's late." He leaned forward pressing a kiss on Leia's forehead, gently pushing her shoulder down when she tried to stand up. "Don't, I know the way, you should rest, take care of that ankle." He said rushing to the main door, he heard Leia sighing at the distance.
He smiled when he saw Luke disappearing down the corner and headed towards that direction. Still keeping a distance, he followed Luke into a caf shop that Din knew quite well. Luke was sitting alone at a small table, hunching forward, reading and he looked absorbed in his datapad.
Din approached him giving Luke a big smile when the boy looked up.
"Are you following me?" The boy in eyeliner asked.
Feeling completely exposed, Din's smile faded as he pressed his lips together "I saw you from across the street and came to say hi." What a liar.
Luke blinked a couple of times "Hi." He muttered and shifted his gaze to his datapad, Din sat down across from him, Luke looked at him again, frowning this time. Gods! You look so beautiful with that hood on, Din thought, sucking in a breath.
The boy squinted and leaned back in the chair, resting his forearms on the table "You know Djarin, I came here to be alone." He said flatly making Din's stomach clench. As Luke started drumming his fingers on the table Din looked down at those hands he found beautiful, observing them, Luke was wearing silver rings, three to be precise, one on the right thumb, one on the right index finger and the third one on the left middle finger, and he was also wearing black nail polish, a little chipped at the tips, and Din had to look away to suppress the impulse to reach out and brush his fingers against Luke's. Now his eyes were fixed on Luke's datapad and he could see what the boy was reading about.
"Tatooine, huh?" He looked up at him, half smiling and raising his eyebrows.
Luke leaned forward covering the datapad with his arms, he hummed.
"Have you been to Tatooine?" Din insisted and Luke shrugged.
"When I was a kid." He muttered and Din beamed when he finally managed to engage Luke in the conversation.
"I love Tatooine." Din commented making Luke chuckle.
"You're out of your mind, Tatooine is a hellhole." The boy added with a little grin on his face and Din was suddenly experiencing a fluttery feeling in his stomach.
"Then why are you reading about Tatooine? I can see you're reading about Tusken Raiders' culture." Din said folding his arms over the table and Luke scratched his nose and fuck! Din clenched his hands into fists against his own arms unconsciously, because deep inside he was dying to cup that little face of Luke and press a kiss on the tip of his nose.
"It's the language, I'd like to learn Tusken Sign Language." Luke said absentmindedly, eyes on the table, eliciting a little gasp from Din. The boy looked at him again furrowing his brows "None of your business, tho."
Din's eyebrows raised as he leaned back in his seat, groaning, understanding that Luke was putting up his walls once again, but he wouldn't miss this opportunity. He needed to act cool, even when he could feel his heartbeat drumming inside his head, he shifted in his chair trying to hide his effervescence.
"I know Tusken Sign Language." He said pressing a hand to his chest, Luke's eyes flickered to his chest and then he looked into his eyes chuckling. Din was holding his breath.
"For real?" Luke asked giving him a lopsided smile and Din's stomach fluttered more intensely this time.
"Yes!" He leaned forward, hardly containing his excitement, there was Luke's bright side again and he was basking in the boy's gleam, like he was a lonely bounty hunter staring at the moon in the dark night sky reflecting the sun's light in silence. "I traveled through the galaxy when I was a mandalorian apprentice and I learned a lot of languages, it's crucial when it comes to negotiation skills."
Luke nodded "Makes sense." He pressed his lips together.
"I can teach you if you want." Din managed to say as his heartbeat sped up hoping Luke couldn't notice how keenly interested he was in being his tutor.
"That-" The boy sighed rubbing his temple with the tip of his fingers "That would be great."
Din's heart skipped a beat.
He couldn't believe he was now sitting beside Luke, showing him the basic hand shapes and the second he was about to correct Luke, he hesitated, withdrawing his hand, he shook his head smiling "You need to curl the thumb inwards." He sighed.
Luke frowned staring at his own hand and tried to follow Din's suggestion.
"No, just, like this." Din showed him how, gesturing with his right hand and he couldn't hold it back anymore when Luke was still struggling with the proper thumb position, he finally wrapped his fingers around the boy's hand and it felt so right, so good. He lingered there enjoying it more than he should until he finally moved the boy's thumb. Luke's eyes fixed on his hand. "There, Luke, that's good. Like that." He said under his breath releasing his hand. But now his skin was burning and he was very conscious of the way his belly tightened all of a sudden.
Luke looked at him with round eyes and Din tilted his head, lips aching to kiss the boy's next to him. "How-" Luke's voice trailed off.
"Yes, Luke?" He asked taking a deep breath.
"How do you say I love you?" Luke asked frowning and then his eyes flickered to Din's mouth.
Din froze. He parted his lips but the words didn't come out easily "Uh-" Luke kept staring at him with piercing eyes "That. Right. Hmm." He couldn't hold his gaze anymore, finding the wooden table very fascinating now.
Luke was still waiting, in silence. Din blinked shaking his head "I don't know. Like I said, we learned languages in order to negotiate." He sighed.
"And that's not something you need to say while negotiating." Luke replied making Din look at him again.
"But I can do a little research if you want." He said rubbing his hands against his thighs.
Luke considered it for a moment and then he nodded "Alright." He said standing up "I'll see you around I guess." He added and Din's eyes followed him.
"Of course, maybe tomorrow after classes." Din said finally standing up, desperation taking him over.
Luke looked at him over his shoulder "I'm busy."
Din walked behind him leaving the shop "Then, the day after tomorrow?"
"We'll see, Djarin. Besides, you're always around, it's not like I'll never see you again." He huffed a laugh "Good night."
Din swallowed hard staring at him walking away as emptiness settled in his chest, he thought he was finally breaking Luke's shell, but he fooled himself once again. He turned around shoving his hands in his pockets and walked down the street, his heart aching as he thought back to the little intimate moment they shared, sitting so close to each other at that tiny table, Luke's thighs brushing against his own, his hand wrapped around Luke's, so warm and soft. He tossed his head back trying to stop that train of thought, it was only bringing him pain and suffering, wanting something he couldn't have. Wanting him.
~
Something caught Din's attention in History class, this guy wouldn't stop glaring at Luke now and then. Din stared at him and the guy locked eyes with him. Din lifted his shoulder in a half shrug, shaking his head with a scowl on his face making the guy look away snarling.
"What's going on, vod?" Paz asked keeping his voice down, leaning in.
"Nothing." He frowned taking his hand to his lips, holding his holopen between his fingers.
"Seems like you're trying to pick a fight with Axe." His vod insisted.
Din cocked his head sighing, he hated the way Paz could read him, in fact, it was a miracle he hasn't figured out that Din was crazy about Leia's brother already.
Axe. Axe Vowes was a mandalorian just like them, still he was arrogant and Bo-Katan's best friend, Din tried to get along with him in the past, but the guy was unbearable, always belittling Din and Paz' tribe, calling them primitives and such. The man was so full of himself and that irked Din somehow, still he didn't know why.
Although Din ignored Axe systematically since then, he wouldn't ignore the way he was leering at Luke and, clearly, backbiting about him with his friend. They kept chuckling every time Axe found that Din was giving him a death stare.
"Cut it out, vod." Paz intervened again making Din flinch.
"He's picking on Luke." He finally revealed the reason for his behaviour.
Paz turned around to look at Luke, the boy was almost asleep, face resting on his hand. He looked at Din again "Seems like Skywalker doesn't give a shit about it, why do you care?"
"He's Leia's brother." He lied to cover himself hoping Paz would buy it.
"Okay." Paz nodded clenching his fist over his desk "You know I love when I kick the shit out of people. Count me in." Din stared at him noticing the way his nostrils flared and he was already regretting telling Paz about it. Paz was a war machine, always ready to take advantage of his massive body and extraordinary strength. People used to be intimidated by him, but Din was always right there beside him to talk some sense into him, Din was as violent as Paz but he was more clever than him, only recurring to violence as a last resort. Paz was tall, heavily built, beefy, with tanned skin and dark hair, with hazel eyes and strong masculine features, and above all those things, a big scar crossed his cheek and all the way up to his eyebrow, courtesy of a smuggler that got into a fight with him one night when Paz was completely drunk and trying to stand up for a slave female twi'lek in a sleazy cantina, Din respected him for that.
Luke left the classroom the second the teacher dismissed the class as usual, but this time Din's eyes were on Axe, ready to step in if the mandalorian tried and follow Luke. But Axe didn't, and the tension around Din's shoulders dwindled as he walked towards the door. Axe stood up with a smirk on his face "Hello, Djarin." He pursed his lips staring at Din pointedly.
Din looked away and kept walking giving Paz the side-eye, his vod nodded understanding that there was no need to confront Axe, at least for now.
~
After his last class Din joined Paz and Cobb in the hallway.
"I don't know man, Koska is very smart." Cobb said smiling.
"So you mean she's returning to me soon?" Paz asked while the three of them were walking towards the campus.
"No, I mean that maybe this time she dumped you for good." He burst into laughter as Paz slapped his upper arm, leaving him breathless "Fuck, Paz!" He choked.
"Hey, vod, don't do that, he's too skinny and your hands too heavy." Din bantered and Cobb wrinkled his nose.
"Thank you Din, you're very helpful." Cobb let out a sigh.
Din was laughing shaking his head until he saw Luke walking in the outdoor seating area's direction followed by Axe.
Din started walking towards them without hesitation as rage flowed through him like lava. His heart thumping inside his chest when he saw them disappearing behind the building, he was quivering with anger when he finally made it to the seating area and then he froze. Axe was resting his hands on the wall at the sides of Luke's head, encasing him.
"I know you're Anakin Skywalker's son." Axe said through gritted teeth "Your father is a disgrace."
"Stay away from him, Axe." Din said standing before them as Paz and Cobb joined him.
"Not until this little shit admits that he's son to a murderer, a scumbag."
What?
"Come on, man. You're mistaken, this is Leia's brother." Cobb walked closer to him.
Luke narrowed his eyes holding Axe's gaze "Move away." He said quietly.
"Say it!" Axe insisted, tugging at the collar of Luke's shirt. "Fucking Skywalker! I want to hear you say it!"
"Fuck you!" Luke retorted, his voice thick with anger and something stirred inside Din when he saw the way Luke's expression darkened, making the fine hairs on the back of his neck stand on end.
Luke raised his arm between them and Axe stumbled a little until Luke moved his fingers, making a crushing hand gesture, and Axe was suddenly struggling to breathe, taking a few steps back and pressing his hands to his own throat. Luke took two steps forward, his eyes were blazing with fury, his arm outstretched as his fingers twitched a little.
Din was frozen taking in the scene unfolding before him until he noticed the way Axe was rolling his eyes and he understood that he needed to stop it "Luke!" He yelled, finally moving towards Luke "Stop! Stop, Luke!" He was grabbing him by his upper arms from behind "Please, stop!" His voice breaking a little.
He heard Luke sighing deeply as he relaxed his hand and Axe fell flat on his face coughing and digging his fingers into the floor. Cobb rushed to him trying to know if he was alright, but Axe didn't pay attention to him, he looked up at Luke instead, visibly perplexed "Just like your father." He said breathlessly.
Din's hands were still around Luke's biceps, the boy squirmed releasing himself from Din's grip. Din stared at him as he started walking away leaving him behind. When Din looked around, Cobb was already helping Axe to walk towards the building. He looked at Paz, his vod was frowning standing in front of him.
"Can't believe it." Paz muttered. Din's stomach clenched and his chest heaved realizing that Luke almost killed Axe without even touching him. "Skywalker is a Jedi." He added and Din grimaced.
"What?"
"That shit, that shit he used, that's called the force, vod." Paz explained.
Din heard about Jedi but never saw anyone using that thing called The force. He had always thought that the force was actually a myth, until now. He ran his hand through his hair bewildered, he needed answers.
~
Leia listened carefully to every word Din said, he was breathing hard by the time he finished, he was feeling desperate, he was worried about Luke and he was convinced that talking to his twin sister about it was the right thing to do. They were in her bedroom, it was already dark outside and a storm broke moments after he walked into the Amidala's house.
Leia blinked a few times and Din could tell she was trying to hold back tears.
She walked to the window, Din followed her as a bolt of lightning cracked the sky followed by a deep rumple of thunder and he huffed trying to remain calm, but he was very conscious of the way his heart was pounding against his ribs.
"Paz said he was using the force." He managed to say.
She raised her eyebrows "Yes. He's a force-user, Din."
"Did you know about it?" He inquired.
Her expression softened as she tilted her head "We always knew that he was a force-user, and so am I." Leia said and Din's eyes widened. "But I haven't trained since I was a little girl."
"Why you didn't tell me about it?" Din rested his forearm on the wall and leaned in trying to catch her eyes.
Leia shrugged "It's not important to me, it's something that doesn't define me anymore. I'm my mother's daughter, that's all that matters to me."
"And Luke is his father's son." He nodded looking into her eyes. She nodded back with a melancholic smile on her face. "Luke's a Jedi." He said under his breath.
Leia shook her head slowly, sadness in her eyes "Din, a Jedi trains in the ways of the light side of the force."
"I don't understand."
Leia sighed crossing her arms over her chest "What you described, the technique Luke used to hurt Axe, a Jedi can't and won't use it." Din lifted his chin still not understanding what his friend was trying to say. "Din, that's a Sith technique." He could hear the way she choked with emotion "Don't you see? Someone has been training him to use the dark side of the force."
"What's a Sith?" Din asked as a feeling of dread crept over him unexpectedly.
"Someone that has lost their way." She frowned rubbing her hand across her forehead while Din rested his hands on his hips sighing deeply and looking through the window.
"Is it too late?" Din asked afraid of the answer he would get.
"No. I can feel it... right here." She took her hand to her chest "There's still good in him."
Din breathed a sigh of relief.
"Be careful, Din." She said and caught him off guard.
"What?" He looked at her with round eyes.
"I think you know what I mean." She said holding his gaze.
Din looked away, the sound of rain outside filling in the silence. He pressed a kiss on her cheek and walked away knowing that he wouldn't stop by the big couch on his way out that night.

FIC UPDATE: Side by Side 14/14
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: referenced character deaths Fandoms: Star Wars, Clone Wars Relationships: Commander Cody & Obi-Wan, Commander Cody/Obi-Wan Kenobi Characters: Commander Cody, Obi-Wan Kenobi Additional Tags: Whumptober, Whumptober 2023, Whump, Angst, Tragedy, Hurt/Comfort, Hurt Obi-Wan Kenobi, Hurt Commander Cody, Obi-Wan Kenobi Needs a Hug, Commander Cody Needs a Hug, Protective Obi-Wan Kenobi, Protective Commander Cody, Developing Relationship, Bittersweet Ending, POV Alternating, Idiots in Love, War, Not a Fix-It, Blood and Injury, Emotional Hurt, I love these two so much ahhh, which of course means I'm gonna hurt them Wordcount: 15k Summary:
Glimpses of pain within and pain shared between a general and a commander during a war that never seems to end. (Based on the Whumptober 2023 prompts on tumblr.)
Excerpt:
For years now, Obi-Wan has forsaken the Force and his own way of life. He's forsaken himself, in a sense, because being a Jedi had been all he was for a very long time, and now he is Ben, is nothing, is no one.
He had failed Anakin, and he had failed the Jedi Order because he had failed Anakin, and he had failed his men, too, because he had failed Anakin. Everything stemmed from him, from the little Tatooine boy Obi-Wan had had no idea what to do with when they'd just met.
Now, he remembers but doesn't reminisce. He goes through the motions. He breathes but doesn't truly live.
One would think that routine would be soothing, after fighting a war which, in its nature, lacks stability. However, Obi-Wan feels hollow in a way he hadn't before, trudging through the days that all seem the same, doing the same thing over and over again.
Perhaps he misses war.
(A war that had doomed them from the start, that had been designed with their deaths in mind.)
(A destruction of a culture, of a people...Obi-Wan truly is alone.)

This is my second story in the Finish Your Shit WIP Big Bang @wipbigbang
Tumblr media
Obi-Wan Kenobi cradled the swaddled infant against his chest as he patiently waited to board a public transport bound for his chosen destination: the remote planet of Tatooine.
Once there he would turn the care of the infant over to the only family he possessed before seeking a place nearby where he could keep an eye on the boy.
Watching and waiting for the time when his training would begin.
Obi-Wan did his best to keep the infant quiet and content. As Luke continued to slumber peacefully in his arms, he figured he must be doing something right.
He freely admitted he lacked experience in caring for ones as small as Luke. There had never been any need for him to interact with the younglings in the Temple nursery and no time once he became a Jedi Knight.
His own youth had been spent alongside his best friends, Garen, Bant, Reeft, Kali, and Siri. The bonds they formed as they prepared for their Initiate Trials lasted them into their adulthood. 
Until death separated them.
A fresh spurt of grief rolled through Obi-Wan as he recalled the friends he lost since the start of the Clone Wars.
Siri died on Azure. 
Garen on Acherin.
Bant somewhere in the Purge. 
He had no idea if Reeft managed to avoid the fate that had befallen so many of the others. He also didn’t dare reach out through his and Kali’s bond to ascertain if she was still among the living.
He feared what the answer might be.
How many Jedi heard his warning and stayed away from the Temple, Obi-Wan did not know.
All he could do was hope that even a small number of others survived and managed to go into hiding.
To watch and wait for when it was time for the Jedi to return and defend the galaxy once again.
A Yarkora squeezed by him.
Obi-Wan instinctively tightened his hold on Luke while watching as they made their way through the throng of travelers to an empty seat.
Trust was a commodity he could no longer afford. Not when Luke’s life was the one that would be jeopardized if he chose to trust the wrong individual.
A quick scan of the spaceport revealed a three-eyed Gran whispering to an Ishi Tib in a small alcove.
A pinprick of alarm shot through him when their eyes cut in his direction. He didn’t relax until transport security walked by the duo and their gazes followed after them.
Luke stretched and yawned, immediately drawing Obi-Wan’s gaze. A momentary envy at his peace and contentment filled Obi-Wan.
Another luxury he could not afford.
Not while they remained on a place appropriately nicknamed The Smuggler’s Moon.

start of ep 3, when Obi-Wan can’t keep his hands still? and he’s overwhelmed by the revelation that Anakin is alive? my brain cannot comprehend the beauty of all this whump displayed on a screen in a visual medium just for me. all hurt no comfort. Obi-Wan whump week, but make it Extra. I am LIVING for this.
Obi-Wan SHAKING and the camera doing whatever the fuck it was doing when Vader is close?? POETIC FUCKING CINEMA. 100% what I want from this franchise. it’s like watching fanfics, but not in terms of plot, in terms of EMOTIONS.

Hi, Ellie! For the AO3 Wrapped asks, how about 12, 18, and 28? <3
12. How many WIP’s do you have in your docs for next year?
Hahahahahaha there are so many 🤪
Finishing Scars on Our Hearts and A Necessary Evil are at the top of the list. After that I have (all codywan) a zombie AU, what has morphed into two different mage/magic/magical creatures AUs, a possible time travel AU with a post Order 66 Cody and Sithywan though I am still feeling that out because I always just want them to immediately fix things in time travel situations, and some shorter fics including another soulmate AU, one that goes into how the Jedi perceive others in the Force, a sequel to The General, a possible partner piece to I Will Always Come Back to You from Obi’s POV, and like five other scraps of ideas. I may also dabble in Febuwhump if the prompts spark joy (or well whump in this case).
18. The character that gave you the most trouble writing this year?
Obi-Wan always gives me more trouble than Cody out of the two of them. Overall it’s probably Anakin which is half the time why I avoid having him around in the universes I create. He will feature a decent amount in one of the magic AUs I have planned and the time travel fic if I go through with it.
28. Favorite work you wrote this year?
I’ve only written/updated 3 things this year which is wild, but it was a crazy year. I love all three of them for different reasons. I Will Always Come Back to You has my heart for flower language and Codywan just always being there for each other through it all. And Scars on Our Hearts has my heart for all of the healing and emotional work the boys are having to go through and how they’re slowly making space for each other in their hearts and working toward a new version of home.

When you get this, reply with your favourite five fics that you’ve written, then pass on to at least five other writers, if you can. Let’s spread the self-love. ♥️
ah crap. okay, here we go:
To be remembered: the one fic that i love. that i'm proud of. that if anyone were to ask which fic of mine they should read, i would immediately suggest this one // canon compliant, sad desert daddy obi-wan, non-linear narrative
Something broken that can be fixed: post rako hardeen arc, emotional hurt and comfort, angst, happy ending
Torture (whumptober, day 12): torture, violence, force lightning, obi-wan whump, sad and angry vader
Bleeding (whumptober, day 19): alternative universe, reference to torture, graphic depictions of violence, grief, and major character death
Vertigo, collapse (whumptober, day 27): clone wars era, battles, anakin whump, emotional hurt, loss of friendship, bitter anakin, sad obi-wan
i dunno what it means that most of these are not obikin fics...maybe that i need to write more gen stuff?? hmm

Nothing Without You
read it on the AO3 at https://archiveofourown.org/works/48781030 by MaiasPen ‘It takes effort for Obi-Wan to sound like he didn't almost die. To breathe evenly and speak calmly, like fear hadn’t just throttled him as Anakin almost died, too.’ Or, After scarcely evading death, Obi-Wan and Anakin are marooned on a spectacular tropical beach at sunset. A quintessential paradise. Unfortunately, they are far too busy arguing to enjoy it, until they hear something very strange . . .
