So if you don't know, In Legends, The Emperor's Hand, Mara Jade, was turned to the light side by Luke Skywalker and they got married. During her evil days, Vader saw her as a threat. Then she married his son. So Ima do what Anakin thought of that. 

Anakin rushed down the afterlife force hallway. But since he was one with the force he didn't need to run. But he preferred physically moving to being one with the cosmic force, then coalescing into a humanoid form and resembling what you looked like in life anywhere in the universe at any time. Obi-Wan did that. He did that with Anakin's son. Scared the crap out of him on Hoth. 

Anakin was at the end of the cosmic force hallway and opened the door to enter a large courtyard where his son's wedding was being held. There, in ghost form, stood Obi-Wan, Yoda, and Qui-Gon Jinn. Thank goodness Mace Windu never learned the technique. 

"Over here!" Obi-Wan's translucent corporeal form said. Anakin walked over to his friend. "You know we can just appear wherever we want right?'" corporeal Obi-Wan said. "Yeah I know" Anakin replied as he straightened his force tie. "Coalescing into a corporeal form from literally being the force feels so weird. That was the worst part about surprising Luke while he was sulking on Endor." 

"Eh" Obi-Wan's ghost shoulders shrugged. "It'd be easier if you were a master. Um, Anakin your fly is down." Anakin looked down. Yup. His ghost fly was down on his ghost pants. He quickly fixed the problem. 

After a couple of seconds of silence as Anakin rectified his blunder, Obi-Wan sighed and said, "I can't believe Luke is getting married." He looked around. "I would have thought more people would have shown up." Anakin chuckled. "More people than at my wedding. I still can't believe he's marrying Mara Jade." 

Obi-Wan looked over at Anakin. "That must be weird for you." Anakin sighed. "You have no idea. I always despised her. Thinking she was a threat to me and that the Emperor was going to replace me with her. Now my son's gunna marry her." 

"Well, you first met Padme when you were 9 and she was 14. Then you were creepily hitting on her and she totally friend-zoned you." Obi-Wan replied. "I guess all Skywalker marriages are weird. Your daughter married a smuggler she hated when she first met him, and your son is marrying a woman who wanted to kill him the first time she met him." 

"I guess so," Anakin said. "It's still weird." He shuddered. Why couldn't a Skywalker just have a normal love life? Luke had a better love life than he did. But all of them dumped him or died. So maybe not. Anakin was a one-hit-wonder. He changed the topic. "I wonder what they'll name their kids?" 

"Hmm," Obi-Wan said as he stroked his ghost beard. "Well, they can't do Anakin. That one's taken. Maybe Ben?" Anakin laughed. "That'd be nice." 

"Yes" Obi-Wan said. "Very nice indeed."

Anakin nodded. "Glad Leia and Han didn't name any of their kids 'Ben'."

"No kidding" Obi-Wan said. "That would make no sense. Leia barely knew me. And Han hated me." 

"You nerds shut up!" Yoda yelled as he whacked them with his ghost stick. "The bride here comes."

Thanks for reading! It was too good of an opportunity to pass up.
