A: TEXT

I think it's time I retire from teaching for a while.

I don't suppose anyone knows a decent way to pass the time?

B: ACTION

[ When Stefan announced the prayer room, a quiet place for meditation, Obi-Wan had been thrilled. While he enjoyed and cared for the Huntress, quiet is not something they are known for. After talking to Anakin, he knew he was in dire need of quiet and inner peace

He does not regret ( he can not regret )

And yet.

In a way he had envisioned as a child, it had always been Master and Padawan, together. Even when separate, they fought together, learned together, believed in each other. But Qui-Gon died all too soon, and for so long, Obi-Wan threw his hands up against tradition. When Yoda told him to be Anakin's master, he chose to be Anakin's friend. He did not caution against attachment, only warned where it might lead.

He breathes heavily, his legs folded on the mat. It's not working. The Force is still too quiet, too alien at this moment. It doesn't understand his sorrow.

Obi-Wan chuckles, opening his eyes and pushing his hair back. It should be used to that by now.

Looking down at his hands, he's quiet when he speaks. ]

Please help me.

Another person suggested the guitar. If the Huntress doesn't mind the noise, I think I might do that.

And I owe one little girl a picture of my drawing skills.

[intelligently]

You might end up getting an audience.

How are your drawing skills?

[beardstrokes]

Decent? Maybe? I've never really tried though I have some practice drawing geometric shapes.

Why would I have an audience?

[intelligently]

People like to listen to music.

And practice could have you drawing more than shapes.

[beardstrokes]

I'm sure people are not invested in seeing a beginner stumble along.

Unless it's for entertainment value.

[intelligently]

Or for help. Or maybe you won't stumble.

[beardstrokes]

I try to do my best when I put my mind to something, but I imagine some stumbling is mandatory.

[intelligently]

Maybe some, but it doesn't mean that it'll happen for long.

[beardstrokes]

Are you sure? You might have to put up with my terrible skills in music.

[intelligently]

I'm sure.

[beardstrokes]

Then I'll be sure to serenade you some time.

[intelligently]

I look forward to it. And I hope you find what you need to.

Thank you. Your kindness has been most helpful.
