After 8 months, my modern au story lives! 😵💫🙌🏼
Ch. Summary: At a town gathering, Obi-Wan feels more at home than he has in a while. And has some time alone with Anakin.
“Do you think you would ever return?” Anakin asked quietly, gaze fixed on his shoes.
Obi-Wan wanted to ask why he wanted to know all these things, but decided against it. He exhaled, puffing out his cheeks, “Anakin… I'm not-- I don't really know.” He shifted where he sat—what could make him return for good? Perhaps if his father became so sick he couldn’t take care of himself, that was certainly a good reason. Everything else he wanted was so out of the realm of possibility, it wasn’t even worth thinking about or truly considering.

i must not get takeout. takeout is the wallet-killer. takeout is the little-death that brings total obliteration. i will face the kitchen, fridge, and pantry. i will make choices about what to cook and then execute them. when hunger is gone there will be nothing. only i will remain.

are u ever sick w longing. and i don't just mean romantic longing. i mean longing for a place you barely get to see, longing for friends you no longer have, longing for feelings you might have left behind in your childhood, longing for creativity, longing for a rich and more expansive life, longing for less inhibition. longing for more passion. longing for ur life to be so incandescent w something it thaws all the frost in ur bones. are u ever so consumed w it it rends ur heart in two. do u understand me

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

You guys rlly don't realise how much knowledge is still not committed to the internet. I find books all the time with stuff that is impossible to find through a search engine- most people do not put their magnum opus research online for free and the more niche a skill is the less likely you are to have people who will leak those books online. (Nevermind all the books written prior to the internet that have knowledge that is not considered "relevant" enough to digitise).
Whenever people say that we r growing up with all the world's knowledge at our fingertips...it's not necessarily true. Is the amount of knowledge online potentially infinite? Yes. Is it all knowledge? No. You will be surprised at the niche things you can discover at a local archive or library.

Obi-Wan finally spotted Anakin again in the far corner talking to someone he didn't know. But he was smiling and actually participating in the conversation, not just nodding along disinterestedly. He looked engaged, like he was enjoying himself and... Obi-Wan wished it was him.
“He misses you, you know,” Qui-Gon suddenly said from his left. He turned to find the older man looking at him, eyes gentle and honest—there was no teasing. He turned back and found Anakin looking in their direction but he looked away quickly. “I think he has talked about you more in the last year or two than he did after you first left.”

Not socialist in a “I won’t have to work” type of way but socialist in a “I’ll still be working but I won’t be worried I won’t make the rent” type of way. In a “billions won’t be hoarded by one person” type of way. In a “janitors, fast-food workers, child care workers, preschool teachers, hotel clerks, personal care and home health aides, and grocery store cashiers, will live comfortably” type of way. In a “the sick and elderly will be cared for” type of way. In a “no child should work” type of way.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but
YOU DO NOT NEED TO START A NEW HOBBY!
STEP AWAY FROM THE TEXTILES!
YOU DON'T NEED MORE YARN!
THAT FABRIC IS NOT CALLING TO YOU! LEAVE IT ALONE!

"objectively physically attractive but in possession of negative rizz" is one of my favorite character concepts. i think it's so great when there's an absurdly hot person who's just a complete fucking loser. the mood is unsalvageable the moment they open their mouth kind of deal. you get no bitches because you're so sucks.
