Silent Faction by analise and Kirby Crow (NC-17)


This is my final rec of the month. It was my pleasure to rec Q/O (TPM) in
this community. I hope you’ve enjoyed the ride as much as I have! Happy Halloween!

Fandom: STAR WARS: THE PHANTOM MENACE
Pairing: Qui-Gon Jinn/Obi-Wan Kenobi
Length: 310k (Novella)
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: Unknown, but her their stories are archived at

Author's summary: By the time Master Qui-Gon is sent to investigate Knight

former Padawan have been estranged for 4 years. When they finally meet
again, Qui-Gon discovers Obi-Wan has a new life, a new home, and a new
love...

A crack of light in the darkness and the hiss of hydraulics. Calm. It was a man. A human. He could see by the silhouette. A tall man. A...


Oh, no.

His mouth went dry, and his heart nearly faltered to a stop. It couldn't be. Was it possible that the Force itself was against him?

Force or not, it *was* him. Tall, broad shouldered, perhaps a few more lines around mouth and eyes. The hair was a bit longer, slightly more silvered, the beard a little less scrupulously trimmed. But there was no one else in the Order who carried that natural air of command. That serene aura of complete and utter confidence. Of all the ones to send. Of all the times to have this meeting forced....
