#I watch Daredevil for the plot: 7/??
gffa:
ABSOLUTELY LOSING MY MIND, JUST COMPLETELY FERAL because the first time Obi-Wan reaches out into the Force in years, it’s not enough that he’s horrified that Anakin is alive, but that he connects with Anakin.
That these two are so entwined the only way Obi-Wan couldn’t know is if he didn’t use the Force, didn’t reach out with his feelings. Because the moment he does, Vader’s eyes snap open and they’re bound to each other again, just like they always were.
Theirs is a love story, because the kind of hate that exists between them can only come from those who loved each other so much they can never stop. No matter what covers over it, no matter how low those embers burn, their connection is still there, that bond is still there, and we know eventually they will be reunited in the Force when Anakin comes back to the light.
But right now there’s only darkness when Obi-Wan reaches out and I’m just COMPLETELY INCONSOLABLE that the first time Obi-Wan touches the Force in years, he feels Anakin, feels Vader’s hate and rage and suffering and pain.
The way Leia’s voice fades into an echo in the background, the way you can hear his heartbeat, or maybe Anakin’s heartbeat, maybe their joined heartbeat as they sync up again, that nothing in the galaxy exists in that moment, except Obi-Wan, Anakin, and the love and hate between them.
