one star war viewing experience that i think has been totally 100% lost to time / cultural dominance: obi-wan being a mysterious and lowkey dubious figure in a new hope. he’s introduced doing this absolutely terrifying screech (which he never does again? before or since?), in a cloak with his face covered (classic villain coding, also very close to the emperor’s exact look) and this comes after a build up of him being some “old wizard” luke is told is dead, that he shouldn’t be going to see at all—and his dialogue only raises more questions than answers. a big part of it is alec guinness’ expert ptsd performance, of course, but there’s such a real strangeness to obi-wan’s debut. he’s a mentor, but he’s also a hardened warrior, also a deliverer of some incredibly ominous lines, also a disembodied voice, an undead, unkillable entity. i don’t think it was some accident that the “fake twist” used to hide the real twist in empire was that obi-wan killed luke’s father, is all i’m saying really. i think there’s an undercurrent in anh that, as the jedi/obi-wan/star war grew in popular culture and the light side/dark side lore got more ironed out, isn’t really accessible now. but it’s fun
im convinced that if obi wan so much as coughed during one of their duels, dooku would somehow spawn a bed, warm blanket, soup, tea, and a damp cloth into existence and go full grandma on him
Never before has a guy looked this sick and problem-shaped. Petition to recanonize CW03 Cody's huge pauldrons and big arm stripes please

EWAN MCGREGOR as OBI-WAN KENOBI Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005)
Hi, I'm Mog! (she/her pref, they okay too <3 ) I dipped one toe back into the Star Wars fandom, and Codywan gripped me by the jugular and dragged me down the the bottom.
Anyway, I write fic now.
Dreamsoft is my AO3. I don't know what the name means other than the first 27 I tried were taken and now I feel like a studio making games exclusively for the Dreamcast and I'm pretty okay with that actually Anyway, feel free to chat me up or message me any time <3
Happy May 4th!
I'm still working on some artworks so I thought today I would compile all the artworks I made for the first kiss bingo to remind us all that Cody and Obi-Wan are kissing for the first time right now in every possible universe 💗
Hell yes, Cody sorted him right the fuck out
even though it didn't end up happening in the Kenobi show I fully subscribe to the idea that Cody at some point found Obi Wan on tattooine because in my mind the only way to get from sad Ewan McGregor to whimsical Alec Guinness is an off screen gay romance in the desert
