just like a priest. *hums*



1.

Some Jedi take an oath promising never to tell a lie. When Obi-Wan considered it as a young Padawan, Qui-Gon left him to it, as he did whenever Obi-Wan started something that he did not particularly care about one way or the other. He did, however, offer up one piece of commentary:

"My master took it some years ago."

Obi-Wan spent years examining that particular memory for inflections of tone, for hints that Qui-Gon had been trying to warn him.


2.

Anakin was, in certain respects, socially crippled. He was incapable of understanding implication, of grasping fine, unsaid points. Obi-Wan initially attributed it to the crudeness of Anakin's upbringing, and when that was no longer possible, to the degree to which Anakin interacted with machines. There was, he thought, a translation difficulty. Anakin produced surprisingly nuanced source code for his droids. It was graceful; it alluded to the unprocessed, and when he was an old man in the desert, Obi-Wan had a great deal of time to reflect upon his Padawan's early affinity for the mechanical.

You lying BITCH. YOU KNOW YOU WERE NOT JOKING :| :| :| TAKE IT BACK.

(In all truth, anybody interested in me enough to read this deeply into the comments of a random story knows, I'm sure, the way that I talk with friends. And shut up, it's going ot be a fucking great RPG. :D I bet it'll still be better characterized than 85% of SW fanfiction. ^_^)

I ADMIT IT. I HATE ALL OF YOU. *OPPRESSES*

The RPG is pure crack, but what makes it cool is that I think all of you know that and are cool with that. And the fact that it will be better characterized than 85% of SW fanfiction is why I think people want to play in it. XD
