Coruscanti Buzz

 

He’s Obi-Wan…. Or is he Obi-Two?

Startling evidence suggests the Mand’alor’s spouse might not be his first love. 

Css Vasssk for Coruscanti Buzz

Mand’alor Jango Fett and his husband Obi-Wan Kenobi arrived on Coruscant for the first of their semi-regular visits to the Jedi Temple. But they didn’t come alone! Obi-Wan was holding a child’s hand as they disembarked the Mand’alor’s small ship.

The child’s identity is still unknown, but it would be hard to miss the strong resemblance to Jango Fett. That implies he isn’t adopted (this is common practice among Mandalorians), but he’s certainly no newborn.  That’s right: Jango Fett must have a child from a previous relationship! It certainly is scandal season. In case you’ve missed them, here are two of my favorite breaking stories:

Come back when you’ve cooled down

Padmé Amidala boots ex-lover Clovis Rush, Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker out of birthday celebrations.

 

Obi-Wan, showing forgiveness characteristic of the Jedi, seemed affectionate with the mysterious youngling. He appeared to be listening to the child’s conversation as they arrived, and the child turned to him rather than its father to be carried up the stairs out of the hangar bay.

The unidentified child shows no obvious signs of being any other species than Human, and I could spot no clues to the identity of its other parent. But it can’t be Obi-Wan: the timelines just don’t line up!  There have been rumors of the Mand’alor’s past dalliances with certain of his warriors, but there have never even been speculations about a resulting baby!

There hasn’t been a statement about this from the office of the Mand’alor, but I think this might tragically lower the chances of some kind of spectacular maternity photoshoot any time soon (click here to see our best celebration ideas for your upcoming birth, hatching, or binary fission).  Tragic. Still, if there are any official updates, my readers can expect to get them first!

News in Brief

Today Boba Fett, heir to the Mand’alor, joined his father and the alor’riduur on an official trip to Coruscant. Jango Fett, like most Mandalorians in the public eye, has implemented and enforced a complete ban on unsanctioned discussion of his son in the Mandalorian media. All articles mentioning the alor’ad are checked and approved by the office of the Mand’alor before publication.

Today’s journey is the first official news we’ve had of the Mand’alor’s son since a press release two tendays ago informed reporters that the new alor’riduur had said his adoption vows and that the new family was settling in well with one another.  An accompanying holo showed the child with his buir’e.

Once you’ve said the riduurok, you’ve locked down your other half. But how do you make sure the marriage stays happy? Here are four tips from our married contributors to make sure your union lasts a long time to come.

 

  • Maintain your own interests

Marriage doesn’t mean sharing everything . It’s important to let your spouse have their own successes-- you don’t need to be among their soldiers every time, as long as you’re there to congratulate them after the battle.

  • Make time for romance

It’s the little things that count, isn’t it? And any moment can be romantic if you show you were thinking of that special someone. My partner loves to hear me say “I saw this and thought of you.” Whether I’m offering them a wildflower or the heads of their enemies, it never fails to set the mood.

  • Watch their six no matter what

Even in the best marriages, nobody agrees all the time. It’s important to keep perspective: no matter how bad that argument is, your spouse needs to be able to count on you. There’s a time and place for revenge, and it’s never on the battlefield. No matter how petty you might feel.

  • Never commit your family’s fighting forces to a cause without talking first

This also goes for large purchases. Remember you’re part of a household now!
