A Moment's Peace by Destina Fortunato (NC-17)
Fandom: STAR WARS: THE PHANTOM MENACE
Pairing: Qui-Gon Jinn/Obi-Wan Kenobi
Length: vignette
Author on LJ: destina
Why this must be read: This is a short, (hot!) piece with a bit of plot and angst set some time
after A Place of Silence. Since I recc’d the novella, I thought I'd rec this too, but it can be read as a stand-alone piece.

Excerpt:
The door slid open at his back, and he turned to see Obi-Wan, bedraggled and slumped with exhaustion, his posture tense. "Obi-Wan," he said with surprise. "I didn't expect you back until tomorrow."
His lover stopped there, turned bleak eyes to questioning blue ones. "They cut through the preparations we’d made as though we’d never been there. We may as well have been invisible. Two dozen Jedi are dead, and Mos Eisley remains a viable conduit for their shipping lines. We failed."
The last words were spoken flatly, but the edge of anger beneath them caught Qui-Gon’s attention, even as the Master's heart sank at the news. He could see the remnants of a powerful rage rippling through Obi-Wan, like soft lighting travels the edges of sails in a storm. "What is it, Obi-Wan?" he asked, eyes taking inventory of the rips and smudges across Obi-Wan’s clothing. "Are you all right?"
