How about Padme "Remembering things?" like dreams of Ben's timeline. Post-TPM Padme is having visions of ROTS and the first thing she did is that she stays away from the Jedi (its only puppy love it will die out). But imagine Padme's surprise to see not a newly knighted Obi-wan but General Kenobi who is carrying children.

Her Children... ("Cancel all my week's appointments. Prepare my ship immediately to Coruscant" "But you're Majesty" "Now")

Can you realize how Anakin figures out who the twin's biological mother is? Shmi loves her. Obi-Wan sighs. Quinlan laughs. Aayla is the adult. Ben... I'll let you decide.

Imagine Anakin introducing the twins to Padme (reminiscing how he introduce 3PO in Tattooine). Like how hard it is, the last thing she remembered is him choking her. But young Anakin? He adores the twins. Is that enough to make teenage queen Padme cry?

Anakin: Padme look! here's Luke and here's Leia. They're my little brother and sister!

Padme: *Holding her tears*

General Kenobi and the Twins

Hey can I get an uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

“38yo Obi-Wan, carrying literal newborn Luke Skywalker while trying to get to Tatooine, finds himself time-traveled to about two years post-Naboo.”

I just think that would be a Neat Dynamic to explore.

Anakin is eleven and hasn’t interacted with Palpatine yet, and this future Obi-Wan is a traumatized horror holding a baby that is? Apparently Anakin’s? Anakin’s still a baby he can’t have a baby! That baby is a real proper baby! It was just born! What if he drops it?!

27yo Obi-Wan, meanwhile, is going to have a stroke.

38yo Obi-Wan is just like. If you take this baby away from me, I will lose it.

“You’ll try to kill us?” “No, I mean I’m going to cry on you, probably. I’ve had a very long week and this child is my last remaining tie to sanity.” “…I think we need to sedate you.” “Yes, that’s probably wise.”

It’s just a very awkward time for General Kenobi to show up with a baby that isn’t his but might as well be. I’m 50/50 on him still having Leia.

Like do we need an exhausted crying middle-aged warrior monk who just had the worst trauma of his life showing up in the middle of the Jedi Temple with twin babies that he can only blame on a person who is currently eleven?

Leia’s presence is just.

It’s just an added level of “can we make Obi-Wan cry.”

(Obviously we do want to make him cry. And get therapy. And hugs.)

(I want Obi-Wan holding a baby and crying but like he’s also smiling while he looks down at the baby because it’s a baby.)
