----------

"Why would my Master come here?" Although Ahsoka Tano's question was asked in a hushed voice, the words still reverberated down the empty hall in which she and Obi-Wan carefully traversed. The faded cream-coloured paint on the walls was peeling and flaking, the scraps forming small piles at irregular intervals along the baseboards. The lights were only half-powered and every odd one flickered disconcertingly, making the shadows that lined the space dance with shadows that alternated between dense and alive. Infiltrating the abandoned jail to continue following the trail of Anakin's Force-signature baffled the young girl and had prompted her to break the silence with her question.

Not quite what I had originally envisioned, but still keeping in the spirit of the thing :D

It had been a special treat for the younglings as a reward for a job well done over the past year. Of course, all the younglings had wanted to surprise their favourite Jedi Master, despite the fact that he was neither their Crèche Master nor their Clan Leader. When word got out to the other Masters, they all jumped on board. After all, if anyone could use some lightening up, it was Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Apologies for the lateness!

----------

The snow swirled around him, reducing the visibility down to nothing, and the deep stillness of a sleepy land in the thrall of snowfall permeated the moment. Off in the far distance, the braying of a gorgodon pierced the serenity as a reminder that this sense of peace was, in fact, false. This planet was home to dangers and not completely free of trouble. The young Padawan had heard tales of Ilum and the crystal cave his entire life, and he had often daydreamed of setting foot on the perpetually frozen planet to make the pilgrimage for his own lightsabre crystals. When he had built his first sabre he had, deep down, felt that the stock of crystals contained in the Temple would not be a part of his weapon forever. They were just a temporary means to an end, and would serve him for the time being. However, as the years passed and his status as a Temple Initiate continued, he began to wonder if he had maybe felt wrongly. He wondered whether his desire to travel to Ilum - as great is was - had sparked the feeling and he had, in turn, mistaken it as a whisper from the Force.

"It looks as if the talks will be proceeding as planned, then," Mace Windu stated serenely. He was seated across from Obi-Wan in the back of the ground car that was currently trundling to the city's capital. The languid country-side rolled by, the stunning greenery nothing like the preserved contents of the bio-domes on Coruscant.

"Which is good for us," Obi-Wan replied, just as serene, yet with a wry touch of amusement colouring his words. "We have enough fighting to deal with in the skirmishes bordering this sector. The last thing we need is heightened political unrest."

He gazed down into the large, adoring eyes that pierced him, with a sense of annoyance and nostalgia. He recalled standing like this nearly a life-time ago, hands tucked in his sleeves, and unmoving. The only differences where the place, the time, and the fact that Obi-Wan had aged six years since his last visit. Obi-Wan's attention didn't waiver, even as the Councillor exclaimed a cordial greeting as he noticed the Jedi, offering only a polite "Indeed" in reply to "Master Jedi, it has been too long!" His tone, to those that knew him well, stated that it had not been long enough. Fortunately, the Councillor didn't pick up on the implied meaning, nor did he take slight to Obi-Wan's distraction. No, the Councillor seemed delighted at this reunion between friends, and was content to wait for the two to finish revelling in the other's presence. It was remarkable how the creature sitting at Obi-Wan's feet hadn't seemed to age a single day, as Solomon's tail twitched happily at being reunited with his Jedi playmate.

----------

In all his years as a Jedi, Obi-wan Kenobi never thought he'd see the level of destruction that now lay before him; sprawled haphazardly, and covering every inch of ground, the amount of debris was phenomenal. The few remaining structures were more skeletal than anything, and the scorch marks on them - as well as the walls - were disturbing, to say the least. Obi-wan couldn't quite fathom what could have caused those marks, nor did he really want to know. He also didn't want to know why paint was peeling, why the air smelled charred, and why many of the things he stepped on cracked and crumbled into dust.

Obi-Wan didn't bother taking more than a few steps into the room. There was no need to, and there was definitely no space to go any further. Instead, he surveyed the wreckage, slack-jawed and with his hands on his hips, before closing his eyes slowly and pinching the bridge of his nose as exasperation replaced shock and awe. He sighed deeply and used the Force to sift through the currents and eddies swirling throughout the room, searching for one thread in particu...aha!

Obi-Wan opened his eyes and fixed his gaze on where his sixteen-year-old Padawan was hiding, along with two others, partially shielded by one of those skeletal structures. He narrowed his eyes as Anakin poked his head around the corner.

"Anakin. What, in the name of the Force, did you do to the Library?"

The discharge from the static electricity made the hairs on the back of his head prickle, and he glanced at his companion as he gave her hand a squeeze. She looked up at him and smiled, returning the squeeze before letting her eyes track to the darkened field before them. Obi-Wan and Taska had been standing like this for almost a Galactic Standard hour, both fixed upon the planet's striking display of charged particles. They had watched in wonder as the storm began from a single cloud, soon after they had touched down. Sensing an opportunity for a very rare learning experience, Obi-Wan had led Taska to the spot where they now stood on the peak of a rocky bluff. The elder Jedi had reassured his companion that being above the tree-line would not place them in any danger.

Touching another's mind was something that was always done with permission. Swaying another's mind was something that was done without it. Not letting the other person know what was happening was the key factor, and required characteristics more in tune with a sabacc player's rather than a Jedi's. It was the calm assurance that the notion was legitimate and wholly believed by the person suggesting it; it was the neutral expression and the maintained eye-contact from a respectful distance; it was the implied notion that the other person would be foolish or considered insane, should they not believe it.

Obi-Wan wasn't believing it now, as the tiny hands pressed lightly on his cheeks and the scrunch-eyed peer stared at him from several inches away. The weight of the young child in his lap was awkward, as the Youngling balanced precariously on the Master's knees, one foot on each. Obi-Wan's lips twitched with the effort of suppressing his smile, as the ineffective attempt at persuasion trickled through the force like a pebble falling into a large puddle. He swallowed the chuckle that threatened to bubble forth as he tried to work through the ramifications of giving in to the child's demand.

What could it hurt, he thought, if he indulged the little one this single time?

With a mock sigh, the Jedi Master feigned the glossed reply of one under the influence of the Jedi mind trick, "Yes, Llyl, we can go get a cookie from the cafeteria...."

They stared at each other, one standing tall with his hands tucked in his sleeves and the other sitting at attention with his fluffy tail wagging. They had been frozen like this for what seemed like ages, the sound of the door closing behind Qui-Gon and the City Councilor having finally died out. Obi-Wan seemed to be daring Solomon to run this time, wondering if the furry little creature remembered the last time they had been left alone together. Obi-Wan figured he did, by the way Solomon's panting looked suspiciously like an evil grin.

Stare. "Right. Mace. I don't think I can do this. I mean, the feather makes me sneeze, and these clothes are not conducive to fight-"

Eye-roll. "Relax, Obi-Wan. This is was a stroke of pure genius on Qui-Gon's part. And besides, it looks good on you."
