Obikin Zorro AU

Brainstormed with @tomicaleto on Discord

Don Kenobi is a wealthy landowner in California, fighting to help the people through his masked alias of Zorro. 

One of his recurring adversaries is Commander Skywalker, the long-time ward of Viceroy Palpatine. Anakin has been turning a blind eye to the evil ways of the the Viceroy and Governor Dooku, as Palpatine gave him an opportunity to rise above his station when he and his mother worked as servants in his household. As a result, Anakin has unwavering faith in California’s dictator – despite wanting deeply to help the common folk he shares his roots with. 

Anakin and Obi-Wan quickly develop a charged and heated rivalry. As such, he can usually tell when the promising young Commander isn’t taking care of himself – eating properly or getting enough sleep. Sometime after an encounter like in the second panel Obi-Wan would start sneaking dried fruit into Anakin’s pockets whenever they clashed and dueled.
