Idea: Batman And The Robins Never Acknowledge That There Have Been Different Robins. Like They All Act

They’re talking about Palpatine

Ref

Padme Design

au where padme lives and raises her two children thinking that anakin died on mustafar and works behind the scenes in the rebellion

and anakin/vader thinks that he killed padme

and they both think the other is dead and vader hates the shadowy leader of the rebellion and padme hates the emperor’s black-suited attack dog

i just have a lot of ideas about this idk

i know that TCW depicts an easier-going anakin, but i'd really like more of him written as, like, a human grenade with the pin half-pulled, just unbelievably tense about nearly everything. having a conversation with him is like talking to an undersocialized german shepherd; he is anxious and that, in fact, will be YOUR problem. just an all-around testy individual, prone to snapping at people for asking questions or breathing wrong. but what i think would be really good is if there was such a visible difference when obi-wan's nearby that no one ever wants to give reports or make plans with general skywalker unless obi-wan's there to lighten the mood by saying some stupid joke, and the difference in anakin is pretty instant, it's like that chihuahua meme

It turns out that the lich the adventurers had been hired to slay had never actually killed anyone before until the impulsive paladin of the group swung first. Now, as the healer tries to revive them, the rest have to calm the ancient undead mage down from what is undeniably a panic attack.

It's always "the Jedi failed at this," "Anakin should've done that," and never "Darth Sidious is so good at his job, he deserves to get Sith Lord of the month."

And he was right!

my unshakeable headcanon is that anakin was one hell of a firesetter, because kids with histories of abuse and humiliation seek any kind of control and firesetting is a common fixation, and also it's extremely funny considering he will be burned grotesquely by lava later, really there's no downsides to babykin setting the curtains on fire. but i'm sure the heartbreaking psychological implications of this behavior are entirely lost on obi-wan, who received a clipboard of documents, a nine year old, and a, "good luck," so obi-wan is just convinced anakin has some sort of adrenaline complex. as such, he spends all his time spgoogling (space googling) "how to relax boy" and this is why i think obi-wan and anakin's early years are a situational comedy; because i have a tendency towards gallows humor, and i think every possible behavior anakin could have enacted that might communicate, "i have psychological disturbances," can, should, and must have been wildly misunderstood by literally everyone. anakin (aged speleven, space eleven) quietly asks, "do you ever think about dying?" and obi-wan spits out his tea and goes THAT'S NOT A VERY FUNNY - JEST - JESTER SAYING - COMEDIC LINE OF THOUGHT - YOU DON'T GET TO PILOT THE SPEEDER ANYMORE! it's not that obi-wan doesn't dearly love his small arsonist, it's that pretty much everyone sucks at speaking the language of traumatized children.
