    Summary

    “Oh, there’s no need for any kind of training regimen for this movie,” Obi-Wan said haughtily—and only a little bit flirtatiously, considering an irrepressible part of his subconscious was currently howling and whistling like a wolf from a Tex Avery cartoon, something that was totally irrelevant to the case at hand. “I don’t care about selling dietary supplements, or fitness equipment, or protein bars with my movies, I just want actors. Real ones. As they come.”

    Anakin’s bemused grin just spread wider, something that Obi-Wan steadfastly ignored—along with the pretty, pearly shine of his teeth, not a hint of a veneer visible, thank god. Not that it mattered to him! With great, faux reverence, the mouthy little prick with the Paul Newman smile said—in that sweet, lilting voice—“I can come however you want, Mr. Kenobi.”

    OR: Arthouse film legend Obi-Wan Kenobi lives to make movies, even as his career has somewhat cooled in recent years. He doesn’t care about commerce, only cinema! He’s made his name as a polarizing filmmaker in defiance of everything commercial Hollywood cinema represents. So why would he even consider casting Anakin Skywalker, the young face of a major studio franchise, in his next picture?

    Summary

    Scenes from a life, shared together...

    After Order 66. After Mustafar. After Padme's death. Obi-Wan may have run away from Anakin, but there is one place where he cannot escape him: his own mind. Key moments of their past together weave themselves into his present. Obi-Wan clings to his last bit of hope - while it lasts. Miraculously, he finds himself back on Coruscant, searching the slums for any surviving Jedi who may assist him - in what, he is not sure. Stranded in a desolate corner of the Underworld by circumstances beyond his control, he finds himself in the company of a handsome young stranger with a soft voice and a compliant demeanor - nothing at all like Anakin. And yet, in the company of this young man who promises him affection without attachment, he finds himself reflecting on the relationship that has come to define his entire life.

    Summary

    Watchmen patrol the entrances and exits to the small ward, in case anyone gets any clever ideas about slipping out of the city by nightfall, but what would be the point? Most tracker chips are set to detonate a mile out from Mos Espa city limits. The enterprising would simply dig them out, but the chips are migratory and move throughout the body over the years; you’d have to be very lucky, or your chip defective, to be able to suddenly feel it under the skin of your neck or leg or wrist one day.

    Still, most every slave Shmi knows has a habit of running their hands up and down their limbs whenever they have a moment’s rest. Searching, always searching, consciously or not. Waiting for some lucky day when they feel it, the way an expectant mother might anxiously wait for her baby’s kicks. But with Anakin, Shmi never waited, nor was there any anxiety. She felt him from the very first weeks, dancing in her belly until the very last days of her pregnancy. Even then, she was not worried. He was born early, but that’s Ani- impatient, always so impatient, restless and impulsive, and never, ever, tired, even when night comes.

    (In which Shmi, a life long survivor, decides her and her son's fate.)
