The allusion to Anakin dead or worse at the end of their duel doesn't even register. Though the funny thing is, Obi-Wan didn't need to mention the twins at all to keep their secret, this Anakin hadn't known yet he was to be a father.
There are no words, really, all he can do for the moment is mouth Padme's name as he staggers a little and drops to his knees. He'd known, somehow, that she was no longer in the galaxy, but he hadn't wanted to believe it. He still didn't, but Obi-Wan wouldn't lie to him about something like this. Even if he did, wouldn't he be more likely to try to soften the blow?
Certainly, Obi-Wan would likely have preferred to avoid the sensation of grief and loss flooding his former padawan. It's not the sort of thing that ends well. "Padme, she-...children? She was-...I-..." Words failing him, all he can do is let out an incoherent cry of loss.
It may be a little concerning that some of the pebbles around them are starting to vibrate.
figured i could crib a little from the scene in RotS when he finds out
