*

Every night, after the binary suns had disappeared below the horizon in a blaze of color, Obi-Wan huddled in his cloak and awaited the dawn, watching the brilliant changeful dome of stars with apprehension, fearing one would draw closer, bringing a torrent of death and chaos.

There was no one to help him if it did. His compatriots were gone, and here on the edge of the desert, he was already an outcast after the passage of only a year.

Sudden warmth suffused him, and a silent voice.

You are not alone, Obi-Wan.

Obi-Wan closed his eyes.

Thank you, Master.


End.

Somehow I missed this! But when I saw it I had a happy little squee because no matter how short, your TPM fic is always wonderful. And this was lovely! Obi-Wan's fear as he watched the night sky actually gave me a little shiver, and Qui-Gon's reassurance to counter his loneliness was a wonderful warming contrast. Loved it! :)

Oh, thank you very much indeed! I'm really glad you liked it, and so pleased it felt visceral to you. Thanks again! :D
