You've met Darth Maul?

[And for the first time in the conversation the steady calm on Obi-Wan's end wavers. But he quickly gets control of his feelings again.]

No, it's quite all right. You had good reason to contact me. Especially with certain... unsavory characters running about.

[He felt that waver as he mentioned Maul. And then he had to pause, frowning. The man didn't seem too terrible, other then a bit scared of the fog. But, 'Darth' anything is bad he's been told, and a red lightsaber is very uncomfortable. 'Unsavory characters' also made him unsure...]

I ah, yeah. A few times now. When you say 'unsavory characters' I'm thinking you mean Ren, just so you know. You might want to be more clear.

[Obi-Wan frowned at this. It would make sense that Finn wouldn't know.]

Beware of him, Finn. Darth Maul is a Sith Lord and in an entirely different league from Kylo Ren.

Being in a different league than Ren isn't hard. The man's an idiot. [snort.]

[LOOK. THAT WAS A THOUGHT AND NOT MEANT TO BE SAID OUT LOUD. Nor the loud snort at the end of it, because, well... he's suppose to be good about this. Stupid Ren. Oh, right... Sith Lord.]

Right. Right. Beware anything toting around a red lightsaber. Good thing these guys come color coded. [Don't sass the Jedi, Finn...]

That's not what I meant.

[Have a stern voice Finn, because this is serious.]

Yes, and anyone who has a lightsaber of a different color is instantly a target.

[Meaning you, Finn. He knows what you have.]

[Damn, that was like a 'Dad' voice...]

[...good thing he doesn't know what Dad voices should be. Still, okay, he got the 'seriousness' feel. Especially after that lightsaber comment.]

[You can nearly feel his head duck down at that, eyes going towards that protected lightsaber.]

He doesn't know I have it, if that's what you're worried about. It's not like I swing it around like a toy.

It's not the lightsaber I'm worried about, Finn.

[And yes this is very much a dad voice.]

The Sith are the sworn enemies of the Jedi. It's the entire reason there are no Jedi left in your time.

[Dad voice is TERRIBLE. Yelling Instructor is SO much easier to handle. Dad voice is like... being told off by someone you respect. Damn.]

If he doesn't know I have it, I'm not a target. So there's no reason to worry.

What I'm saying is, I'll be careful.

[and a pause... with a curious feeling:] So... you know him? Maul?

[He's had a lot of practice with it, Finn! Using it on people that are dumber than you. Be a good boy and you won't need to keep hearing it.]

I'm glad to hear that.

[Okay, dad voice is off now.]

Our paths have intersected a time or two.

[Haha, using it on people that are--Hey....]

Yeah? He... really didn't seem all that bad. I mean, I get the... Sith with a lightsaber thing is bad. But... we've talked a bit. I don't trust him, mind you, but he seems... okay? Compared to Ren or Hux I would rather talk to him any day.

I... I'm not saying that I don't believe you when you say be careful, just that... he doesn't make it apparent like they do.

[FROWN]

[Not all that bad? There was a very brief spark of something that felt like anger, but it was quickly squelched before it could form completely. Yet it had still made it through the connection.]

The Sith are masters of deception. Always be on your guard around him, Finn. Please, do be careful.

[That little spark of anger was surprising and gave him pause. It's not like he's going to seek the other out to snuggle or something.]

Yes, sir. Obi-wan, sir. I'll do my best to avoid him.

[Sorry Finn, its not really because of you. It's just that when someone murders two people you cared about, it's hard not to be angry, even for a Jedi.]

Good. Then I will see you at the meeting?

[No, hell end up getting it, at some point. Maul is basically Ren just more deadly, less whiny. Well, basically.]

I, uh, yes. I'll be there. Thank you for being upfront with me.

[He likes it best when he's treated like a human and not a trooper.]

[At least he can't say he hadn't been warned. Obi-Wan just hoped he learned before he got hurt.]

Of course. I'll see you then.

[Thanks to the events so far of this thread, Obi-Wan's going to receive a message from everybody's favorite Jedi grandpa.]

You may want to set another plate for dinner tonight.

[More like his favorite dad.]

Oh? That can be done. I hope they like mushrooms and vegetables.

[Obi-Wan has been keeping up with a garden and harvested some of the winter vegetables just today actually. They don't discuss where the mushrooms come from though.]

[Fair! He's totally everyone else's grandpa, tho.]

Thankfully, I don't believe he's picky.

[Qui-Gon doesn't mention the whole hero worship thing. That's something he's looking forward to seeing play out instead.]

[Of course he would.]

That's good.

[Because no one in this house is especially talented at cooking.]

And who is our guest?

He is a new arrival—a Padawan, actually. I thought it would be a good idea to offer our help.

Really? It seems our ranks are growing. I look forward to meeting him.

Edited 2016-12-18 00:09 (UTC)

And I look forward to introducing the two of you.

Thank you, Obi-Wan. We should be there soon.

Dinner should be ready by the time you get here.

[Obi-Wan smiled to himself and awaited his master's newest pathetic life form.]

[shortly after this]

You were the one who told me he wouldn't be a danger here.

[about a different Anakin, perhaps, but those words apply just as much to this newly arrived Anakin. It may not be a conversation Obi-Wan wants to have, especially not with Leia, but she can't just sit back and not take action after her friend was attacked.]

[Obi-Wan was trying to meditate and then this.]

That was before Anakin left and then returned in the state he's in now.

What happened?
