[ there's a house covered in toilet paper with a very tired jedi standing in front of it, just massaging his temple. ]

Is there a reason why my house is covered in paper? I assume there is a purpose to this other than a gross misuse of resources and time. If you have any issues with me, I much prefer a discussion than a clean up job.

[ he swats some of the butterflies away before sighing. ]

I'll be here. Tidying up.

Comments

[jedies]

No . . . no, he's left the house. I can feel him close by.

[opress]

So he's on an errand.

[jedies]

No. I think he simply needs some time apart.

[opress]

Like a break-up?

[jedies]

[ obi-wan blinks. ]

I'm sorry. Are you suggesting he broke up with me?

[opress]

I don't know. Did he? He seems as attached to you as Maul is.

[jedies]

Yes, because I raised him when he was young. That's why.

[opress]

Feral wasn't that grabby with me, and I raised him.

[jedies]

Anakin had some trauma when he was younger. It made it difficult for him to let go.

[opress]

Everyone has trauma. So you're not... ah, dating?

[jedies]

[ obi-wan gives him the flattest look because trauma is literally why maul and savage did anything. ]

I am most certainly not dating Anakin.

[opress]

[Savage just stared back. His trauma was contained, thank you very much.]

So you broke up. Now he's moved out. Did he waste resources like a spurned child?

[jedies]

He didn't do this and did you not hear what I said before?

[opress]

I heard you, but you might be in denial. You don't seem the sort to let yourself have nice things.

[jedies]

[ this is real life. . . ]

And what would you consider to be . . . nice things.

[opress]

Do I look like someone who knows what nice things look like?

[jedies]

[ obi-wan smiles, bemused. ]

I think your experience has grown somewhat. In fact, I'm still surprised you brought up dating.

[opress]

Literally everyone who forces me into conversation seems to want to date someone else.

[There isn't a lot of forcing. Usually he's the one to approach.]

...are you dating someone?

[jedies]

[ he chuckles. ]

I suppose people think about it often. No, I'm not dating someone though I am seeing someone in a casual sense.

[opress]

[This was not what he expected. Obi-Wan being even slightly open.]

That explains why you're smiling and laughing. I don't think I've ever seen that before.

[jedies]

Savage, that's because we've never spent time in that capacity.

[opress]

Why would we? You always have your hands full with everyone clamoring for your attention.

[jedies]

My hands — Is that what you thought was happening?

[opress]

[Savage is literally told nothing. His perception of galaxy drama was very far removed.]

You attract a lot of attention just be existing. You're like one of those big ugly bugs hanging around town. Don't you have a flock of Jedi now? Plus your apprentice. Plus my brother.

[jedies]

I attract people by being a bug?
