A Quiet Insanity by VaderLVR64 (General)

Hi, my name is [livejournal.com profile] pronker and I'll be piloting the Star Wars transport for September. Of these stories from both trilogies and the EU, quite a few center around the Master/Padawan relationship to honor The Clone Wars, a movie presented in August 2008 to Lucas' eager audiences of all ages. The Clone Wars introduced a new character in canon, Ahsoka Tano, the Togrutan Padawan to newly-Knighted Anakin Skywalker. Yes, Anakin has a Padawan and is exploring the trials and rewards of training a Jedi in the way that she should go. It is similar to parenting, and yet not.

But on to the first story, which returns to the first Master/Padawan relationship that we see in Star Wars: Master Qui-Gon Jinn to Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi. This fic illustrates the difficulty of mastering the old adage about disciplining those younglings in your care: "Never strike your charge in anger."


Fandom: STAR WARS
Pairing: Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi
Length: Approximately 1,200 words
Author on LJ: I don't think she has one.
Author Website: Profile with links to her stories
Why this must be read:

This story builds on a Poe-like atmosphere of claustrophic insanity, hence the title. VaderLVR64 responded to a tense challenge and came up with a smothered vignette. So many fics play on Qui-Gon's intensity and obtuseness, and VaderLVR64 has captured his qualities in some fifteen paragraphs of terse, effective words. The story begins about halfway down the linked page.
