    Summary

    “We’re not going anywhere,” Dad snaps. “There’s no sense in getting ourselves killed just to bring back his corpse!”

    (Sam's never been accused of having much sense.)

    Summary

    His eyes are so caught on the doll that he doesn’t see Obi-Wan’s hand move until long fingers tap twice on his chest piece, over his heart. He looks up to see Obi-Wan smiling at him, kindness and care and a dash of sorrow in the creases around his eyes.

    “Cody,” Obi-Wan says, so gently. “This is the kind of thing you make room for.”

    Summary

    “Have I ever commended you on the vast array of sentiments you manage to convey with your ‘sirs’?” Obi-Wan asked wryly. “Someday I will persuade you to drop the appearance of formality - at least when you’re telling me I’m full of shit.”

    “You’re welcome to keep believing that, sir,” Cody allowed. “Everyone needs something to look forward to.”

    The rest of Obi-Wan’s smile faded, his expression growing thoughtful.

    “Yes,” he murmured, “I suppose they do.”

    Summary

    "Help me.

    Obi-Wan hesitated. Anakin’s lightsaber was still active, still bathing its owner in the crimson light that spoke of blood and anger, but his distress was palpable in the Force. Anakin swayed, and then he toppled over in much the same way a mountain crumbled. The lightsaber carefully, slowly—as if it doubted that it should—rolled out of his fingers, dark moondust engulfing the gleaming hilt.

    Anakin didn’t move.

    “Oh, blast it all,” Obi-Wan breathed out, and found himself on his knees in front of the suit he’d nearly destroyed only minutes ago. His lightsaber hissed as he deactivated it and hung it on his belt, and his hands hovered over Anakin uselessly. The debris of the same rocks he’d thrown at him now dug painfully in his knees, and he could feel the way that dirt and soot were clinging to his skin, mixing with sweat.

    This was the worst possible thing he could do, and he wordlessly asked for absolution as he grabbed Anakin by his armpits and began to heave him towards his starship.

    Summary

    This is how two years of calm, steady companionship and gentle, conspiratorial glances break apart:

    Obi-Wan tugs at the army-standard grey uniform that Cody keeps neatly uncreased, and his hand is on Cody’s neck and then his fingers brush against short dark hair, and Obi-Wan doesn't know which of them closes the distance so thoroughly. He pulls, but Cody lets himself fall; and then their mouths are on one another’s, and Cody’s nose is cold against Obi-Wan’s.

    Or: Cody and Obi-Wan find comfort in each other during the war. Right after Obi-Wan realises that, on his part, there are feelings involved, Cody pulls away without explanation. And this, Obi-Wan decides, is fine, except for all the ways it isn't fine.
