Summary
There’s no telling what Anakin looks like right now. Taller than Obi-Wan but not as tall as Qui-Gon. Dressed in clothes he’s never owned in any of his lives. Neat, basic earth-colored tunics and trousers that don’t feel awful on. Calling one of them by their formal title. Coming up to them and crying, projecting a messiness so potent in the Force he knows they can both read every bit of it. Even if they don’t understand.
“Oh,” Obi-Wan says, voice as clear as a bell. He smiles again, smaller this time, and Anakin wants to reach out and hold him, wants to reach out and wrap both hands around his godsdamned throat. “It’s you.”

Or, in the space between one breath and another, Darth Vader slips into the Force redeemed by the light of his son and opens his eyes again as Anakin Skywalker, forty or so years in the past.
