But do you know that it's so long as your new dominant can meet the requirements of this place, he could have his own accommodations, and you yours?

Actually I have a friend that I think is in a similar situation to yours.

She lives in a house all by herself. It was owned by her former dominant actually. Her current dominant let’s her stay there and he lives with another of his submissives.

She’s actually very lonely and he doesn’t give her much attention. It’s a bit tragic, really.

Perhaps she should find something that interests her, and find those that have it in common.

She has me.

But since we are both submissives we can’t live together. I considered contracting with her dominant to be with her. But then decided that wasn’t the right path for me.

I told her she should start looking for another dominant. Someone who can make her happy. Until then, I visit her as often as I can. An offer I would be happy to extend to you too of course.

She just wants to have a room mate- someone in the same house?

It is what it is. I have accepted that, and make the best of my situation. It is hard without Anakin, but there is little to be done about it.

She’s lonely and wants to share her life with someone. Her last dominant was someone she was in love with.

There’s little to be done about Anakin it’s true. Or Jyn. Or her previous dom. But that doesn’t mean we can’t find some happiness here.

But speaking of interests, I mentioned you to someone. A dominant who owns a fashion boutique and who could use some help. I thought that might be up your alley. He’s looking for clerks and models.

That must be hard then. I'm sorry that she has to go through that. It is never easy losing someone, especially given the nature of this place.

[But there's a flash of guilt as it does feel a betrayal to find some happiness.]

Oh? And who might this be?

Yes, we both know that very well.

[He suspects he knows what she’s feeling. Her comments about Anakin were clue enough.]

Nie Huaisang is his name. We met at camp and he has been kind to me.

Has she been here long?

[She knows that Anakin had been here for some time before her arrival. Knows that she could never have held any of his actions against him, as how could she? Yet it is those stirrings and a longing for him that does bring that conflict.]

Hm. I do not believe that I am familiar with the name.

Longer than I have at the very least.

[Obi-Wan doesn’t blame her for how she feels. She’s presumably had a relationship with Anakin much longer than Obi-Wan ever had with Jyn.]

I can introduce you if you like.
