That bloody face-touch. I love that bloody face-touch. It’s a tiny, tiny moment in a massively bombastic movie, but it says everything you need to know about Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon’s relationship. In a series that revolves around familial love, it’s one of the first demonstrations (after Anakin and Shmi) that we get of it. And it’s a lovely bit of acting from Liam, too.
Can someone point me in the direction of the Single Dad AUs starring Qui-Gon and his four sons, because I know they must exist and I need them.
I’m serious. What I need right now is aging hippie Qui-Gon in a plaid flannel shirt, accompanied by his four possibly-adopted sons aged one to seventeen. Feemor the soft-hearted pushover, Xanatos the shitty emo douchebag, Obi-Wan the tightly-wound nerd, and Anakin the obligatory sitcom baby who comically destroys everything in his path.
