AU: Not Milliways continuity -Obi-Wan Kenobi -aiming for angst free for once, damn it!?

[last_kallig]

Ibani has a mounting headache. Stupid Sith scholars of the past and their need to be damnably clever.

Oh, the LITERAL translation is clear enough, the word is blood, but given the time and cultural context, that has AT LEAST 12 different possible meanings.

"If you weren't already several centuries dead, I'd smack you for being insufferably vague," she mutters at the book as she closes it.

"I need a drink."

"Well then," her eyes sparkle and she leans in to kiss him again.

Ibani knows about the Dark side, oh yes. She's fiercely protective of 'Her' people, and Obi-Wan Kenobi is one of those. There will be no hesitation and no mercy for anything or anyone that threatens him.

She chuckles in his mind. 'Time for you to teach me, perhaps. I've never been here before.'

Here, literally?

Obi-Wan's thoughts don't actually make words, because that's just not how his mind operates. It's more a questioning, understanding of his meaning that settles lightly in her mind. One of the reasons he's so good with non-verbal animals.

They reach the spot they were aiming for and settle down, first on their feet and then he bends his knees so they're sitting instead.

Or more metaphorically?

If so, he's surprised, but willing to be the teacher, in everything. He keeps that one hand on the nape of her neck, and rests his other on the back of her shoulders, and just reminds her that there's no need for anything except this, but at the same time, opens himself up, asking what she wants right at his moment.

'Metaphorically,' she answers, moving a hand up to his shoulders. 'No one else has ever felt right, for this.'

Trust has always been the main issue, or lack of interest among those she did trust, not that she shares that.

This is good for right now, but she's curious too.
