and for you, darling love, a summary of reasons why pava serko really needs a fucking break and also some coffee
once again, going under the cut because it's gonna get looooong
Tumblr media
(and yes, the gif is marginally related to pava too - send me a book emoji and i'll tell you abt a storyline that i keep daydreaming!)
so, relating back to this post about jupso, pava was established as the older of his two padawans. born on mirial, brought to the temple when they were young, gifted with the vision of a seer.
much like jupso, they were herald to a very Important prophecy that held the fate of the very order of the force in its hands. they were shown the prophecy of the splintered force. and this prophecy included within it the coming of the chosen one.
(funny story about that - pava is a good eight years older than qui-gon jinn. they knew about the prophecy before jinn could fight properly. the fact that jinn bulldozed his way into the council to proclaim HE was the only one who believed in the prophecy really made pava want to shoot him, amongst a laundry list of other reasons.)
so, pava.. tries to work through this. their master is already struggling with his own prophecy of cataclysm, and pava holds onto every warning about the future grandmaster's danger; but much like jupso, they were blindsided by just how minutely the danger seeped into every crack.
starting with their finding of fae-blooded obi-wan kenobi on stewjon, alongside two mirialan "foundlings" iomara and neela ondri. they swore to the toddler's family that he would be safe and looked after, and that was a promise they intended to keep.
but pava couldn't fight the council. they practically had raised obi-wan until he was ready to take his padawan trials, but before they were able to put in an application to become kenobi's master - of course qui-gon swooped in and stole it. yoda's blessing and all. which.. held a number of red flags. 1) proximity to yoda's influence 2) literally just being too close to yoda for anything good to come of it 3) DOOKU'S LINEAGE COMING FROM YODA'S LINEAGE DAMNIT
pava had to cow out of it. and practically didn't see obi-wan again for fuck knows how long, because pava was a bit busy with the splintered force; first finding the infant chandrika banshara, who would later be known as the storm goddess of the outer rim (belonging to the lovely @pentothestars!) and making the hard decision of leaving the twi'lek child who had done everything to keep the infant alive (her name is sed'tiran and boy does she hold a grudge against jedi now), to having to watch their near-aged friend who was jupso's second padawan hacora kushiri be murdered (by mundi because hacora was too outspoken about her distrust of the beloved grandmaster.... fuck you, mundi) soon after her own padawan amira sayzeen was knighted, to having to raise chandrika's son who was taken from her by her blip-in-the-force master, to dying just months before obi-wan was able to return to the temple after qui-gon's death and the discovery of anakin on tatooine.
and yes, of course, pava is too fucking angry to stay gone. pava willed themself back as a force spirit because there was too much to be done. rumor has it that the reason qui-gon's spirit never returned to the temple after his death is because he knew pava would kick his shit in EXPEDITIOUSLY. and he's absolutely correct.
a nice little tidbit though, is that pava - as a force spirit - was able to strong-arm a new master for obi-wan upon his return. grandmaster windu knew right off the bat that obi-wan was going to THERAPY and wouldn't be anakin's master no matter what qui-gon's dying words were. and obi-wan got a very sweet master who is an incredibly supportive dad and does his best to help obi-wan with his trauma. thanks fuckface jinn
so pava is around for tcw, mostly checking in on chandrika + little beda when she calls for them, or hanging around the temple in the little mirialan sector. (ironically, hacora is at peace in the force. no one else is LOL) just trying to do their best where they can, and keep the splintered force beings ...... in one piece
