Like Rain in the Desert by sydian (PG)



Hello! I'm Helen,[livejournal.com profile] hsv_fangirl driving the van once again for Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.
I have a variety of recs planned for February featuring our favorite Jedi lovers.

On to the first rec!


Fandom: STAR WARS: THE PHANTOM MENACE
Pairing: Qui-Gon Jinn/Obi-Wan Kenobi
Length: Word count: 993
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] sydian
Author Website: NA
Why this must be read: Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan find comfort in
each other in the aftermath of Episode III. This an AU in which
Qui-Gon lived to train Anakin. Beautifully written emotional
hurt/comfort.


Qui-Gon never asks about him.

Once, on Senator Organa's ship, when the horror is still fresh on your mind
(Anakin, lying on the ground, burning with hatred, limbs severed; burning)
there's a pained look in his eyes as though he wants to ask but is afraid to
know. You look away from him then and focus on your breathing until the
memory - anakin burning burning I hate you burning - fades.

Qui-Gon never looks that way at you again.
