Padawan

How was he meant to know about ghost marriages? It wasn't on his briefing, and he'd looked high and low; it was mention nowhere.

He was training to be a Jedi, for Force sake!

-----

"And what are you giving in return, what armour do you swap for the vambrace?"

Obi-Wan could not help but think his Master's laughter was not helpful as he had to stand through his own kriffing wedding without a tabard and sash.

The food was lovely, explaining it to the Council after his year spout down in Mandalore was not.

He tried to explain that the code states that there is no death; there is only the Force; hence he was married to the Force.

He thinks he got away with it - he's still a Padawan, only had cleaning duties until he's a Jedi Knight, but its a win that he got to keep the vambrace. (He's always been obsessed with Mandalorians, so he finds it pretty kriffing cool to own one of their parts of armour - even when having to wear it from the moment it fits.)

So when he was directed towards a room, and Jango Fett walked out, he only managed to say one thing, "you're not dead."

The man could recognise his vambrace in an instant, as Obi-Wan found out through being pulled into the room.

"We're married," Jango stated.

"Been married for a while," Obi-Wan sighed, "they said your ghost was restless and needed a spouse."

"So they chose a Jedi?"

"No, you did."

"They did a ghost marriage," Jango growled.

Obi-Wan nodded in agreement.

"Once married, Mandalorian's can not split," Jango stated.

Obi-Wan sighed; the council had only just stopped being rude about it. Now his dead ghost husband turns out to be alive and not a ghost. He's going to be on cleaning duty again until he's dead.

"What did you give in return?" Boba asked, dragging attention to himself.

"This is Boba Fett," Jango stated, before adding on second thought, "our son."

Kriff, if he is a clone and his son, did that mean it turns out he has millions of sons? "Nice to meet you, I'm Obi-Wan, your father's husband," Obi-Wan stated, holding out his hand, before standing again to answer the question, "I gave my tabard and sash."

Jango held out his hand, "give them over."

Obi-Wan sighed; he knew that was coming. He slowly started to undo the belts, unwrapping the sodden sash and tabard to hand it over to Jango, "this feels rather unprofessional."

"It's not unprofessional when you're in your spouses quarters," Jango stated as he started to try and put the thing on.

Obi-Wan sighed as he arranged the tabard and sash, "this has to be uncomfortable; it's far too large on you."

Jango Fett huffed, the tabard was too large, going beyond his knees in an attempt to become more of a dress while the sash almost had to be doubled wrapped. "I missed my wedding," he growled.

"They presumed you were there as a ghost," Obi-Wan stated.

"Doesn't change the fact I missed my wedding," Jango growled before storming off.

-----

"Obi-Wan, where are your tabard and sash?" Mace asked after Obi-Wan stopped relaying his information to the Jedi Council.

"You know my dead ghost spouse?" Obi-Wan asked tentatively, and at the nod, continued, "well, turns out he's not dead..."

"Not dead?"

"Currently making a feast after growling about missing his wedding kind of not dead," Obi-Wan offered with a shy smile. "Not dead as in I have technically millions of sons now."

"Obi-Wan?"

"Yes?"

"You're back on sanitary duty," Mace stated.

"How long?" Obi-Wan sighed.

"I didn't say an endpoint for a reason."

"Great," Obi-Wan muttered.

Jango poked his head through, glaring at the Jedi Master in front of Obi-Wan, "are you done?" He growled, almost sneering up at Mace, "the foods done," he then nodded to Obi-Wan. He glanced back at the two Jedi before turning on his heels towards the sitting area again.

Mace didn't wait as he growled and turned off the comm, leaving Obi-Wan in an empty room.

After the feast, Obi-Wan realised he'd never felt this full, neither had he felt even half this full in such good food. "I didn't know you could cook," he commented.

"You learn things," Jango grunted, leaving it at that. He seemed to have an internal debate before looking over at Obi-Wan, "I've requested the documents of guardianship over the clones back. They were hesitant but agreed." Jango glanced over at Boba, who took the hint to leave the apartment and set off to find 99, before continuing, "we'll need to decide whether we want to keep that many sons, or just hand them over to the Republic again."

"I'm not going to make children fight an adults war that they didn't start," Obi-Wan stated, "I'm not making them slaves to die at the whim of others."

"My ghost chose very well."
