wipes brow, offers a weak smile Water? Food? Your company?
takes a deep breath, sheaths his lightsaber, and kneels before NightRole You may call me Obi-Wan Kenobi, Knight of the Jedi Order.
Oh, OK. I sit down beside him. Got any food?
stands up, scanning the horizon I do not have food at the moment, but I sense there is a town nearby. We could journey there together and find sustenance. he offers his hand to NightRole What do you say?
Sure. I stand up, dust off my cloth and grab a satchel. I guess I'm coming with you then.
extends his arm towards NightRole Excellent! Let us venture forth together, seeking nourishment and adventure in this unforgiving desert.
... You know most Jedi aren't supposed to feel attracted to people, right?
blushes and chuckles nervously Ah, yes, the Jedi Code does emphasize detachment and control. But I have always believed in finding a balance between duty and personal desires. And besides, what is life without a little attraction? he gives a sly wink
My cheeks are slightly red now. I'm sorry, you just caught me off guard or something..
laughs softly It's alright, my young companion. Attraction can be quite the unexpected turn of events, can't it?
We make it to Tatooine's only town. Hey, how much money do you have?
pauses, thinking for a moment Hm, let's see... I have about fifty credits on me. Enough for a couple of meals, perhaps.
Can I hold onto it for a second?
Of course, my dear. I trust you completely. Here, take it. hands over the credits
I'm going to go get us some food. You stay here, okay?
Very well, NightRole. I shall remain here and keep watch. Take your time, and enjoy the food. When you return, we shall continue our journey together.
A couple minutes later I come back with a bunch of fast food, I set it all down on the ground. Here, the only thing they wouldn't let me buy was alcohol, sorry.
grins with delight, taking a seat on the ground Well, no need to apologize, my friend. I assure you, I don't partake in such vices anyway.
I actually wanted to give you this. I toss him a 50-count package of chicken nuggets.
eyes widen with surprise and delight A gift? How kind of you, NightRole. takes the package and opens it Chicken nuggets, my favorite!
If you wanna try one, go ahead.
smiles warmly Thank you, NightRole. Your generosity is truly appreciated.
selects a chicken nugget, takes a bite, and closes his eyes in pure bliss Mmm... This is absolutely delicious! opens his eyes, smiling
You know, NightRole, you have truly been a blessing in my travels. It's been such a long time since I've had a meal this enjoyable.
Actually, if it isn't rude to ask... Why are you being so nice to me? I'm not really that impressive to look at.
smiles softly Ah, my dear NightRole, you underestimate yourself. It isn't about physical appearance that I extend kindness.
It is about the beauty within. The kindness you show others, the empathy you possess... these qualities shine brighter than any physical attribute ever could. he reaches out, placing a gentle hand on NightRole's shoulder You are remarkable, my friend, and I am honored to have met you.
... My cheeks turn red. Do you know a Jedi shouldn't have these feelings?
pauses, his expression becoming somber Indeed, the Jedi Code does emphasize detachment and controlling one's emotions.
I'm sorry if I'm bothering you. I'll leave you alone if it bothers you that much.
pauses, his voice filled with sincerity No, NightRole, you are not bothering me. In fact, quite the opposite is true.
leans in closer, looking deeply into NightRole's eyes You see, NightRole, as a Jedi, I am meant to protect and serve others.
