In the Prism of Time & Eternity by Padawan Ben & Qwi (PG-13)

I want to take this opportunity to apologise for not posting as I should have, but work decided to kick my ass and the latest bout of extreme weather has hit my parts hard with thunder storms and such, which makes electricity very unreliable, so in order to save the pc I have it switched off. I'll just run along now to catch up.

Fandom: STAR WARS: TPM
Pairing: Preslash
Author on LJ: ?
Author Website: http://www.geocities.com/padawanben or at Master Apprentice
Why this must be read: First of all preslash? Gods, I didn't know such things existed! (well not really, I do. but I don't read them all that often).
Secondly, it's a fix, a fix that I like a lot. TPM happens as we know it, by Obi-Wan wants his old life back, his own Universe, in other words, Qui-Gon.
He has taken Anakin as his Padawan and tries to go on, but it's not easy. They both suffer from it, Obi from missing his Master, his guilt, his pain and Anakin from not really getting enough from his new Master.
I think that Obi-Wan being appointed to train Anakin right after the end of TPM, when he is not even a knight yet, was a mistake (and we all know where that mistake led). He is way too young and hurt to be able to act as a Master to Anakin and that damn boy needs someone strong.
So Obi-Wan is not dealing well with his Master's death. He would like to leave this life, but the Force has other plans for him.
I love this story cause it's sweet and strong and sensitive and Qbi-Wan just screams to have someone to look after him. His hurt is emotional and doesn't stop when he is faced with new possibilities, a world that is so alike, but so different from the one he just left behind.

And yes another AU, don't you love them? :) I think that the authors planned for a sequel that was to be slash, but that never came, still the story stands on it's own. It's also a tiny bit long....
