one night in coruscant || obikin

(listen to 'Come What May' from moulin rouge, album 2- https://open.spotify.com/track/492lNF2DgQtod42Sl9JbrP?si=V16ddqnwRsutJMHGqnGlHQ it is actually Ewan McGregor singing, so its accurate!)

I checked the time- it was currently half past four in the morning, and I knew none of the beings in the room were lucid enough to know what was going on. Obi-Wan began shakily as melancholy music commenced behind him.

"Never knew... I could feel like this."

"like Ive never seen the sky-" he took a shaky breath "before..."

This should be interesting

"Want to vanish inside your kiss-"

An amused smile came over my face- for he had a pretty decent voice. I had never really heard him sing before- and I was a bit impressed.

"Seasons may change- winter to spring....."

"But I love you; until the end of time."

A small part of me felt sorry for him- a part of me knew was singing from experience. I had patched together over the years that he had been in love with the Duchess of Mandalore- and her death had been devastating to him.

His voice picked up, and I was again a bit stunned at how lovely his voice was.

"Come what may..."

"Come what may...."

"I will love you, until my dying day...."

(pause music)

Had this whole situation not been so funny, I would have been more sad- he looked positively broken.

Deciding that I had had my fun, I rose, walked over to the stage, and grabbed his arm.

"Hey, Obi-Wan, its Anakin. We should go." He looked at me, dismayed. "You dont like my singing... why are you so mean? Youre just—jealous- mean."

His words blurred together as he swatted irritably at my cheek before wrapping his arm around my neck. Sighing, I slid my arm under his shoulders, scooting him off the stool and helping him walk out to the speeder. I made sure he was secure, locked the door, and returned to the bar.

After placing some credits down on the counter, I walked back out, and the cool thick air of Coruscant hit my face. It was a nice contrast to the musty air of the cantina, which smelled of spice and alcohol.

I smiled, laughing at Obi-Wan, who I saw was sitting in the back seat- with his shoes on his hands. He stuck his tongue out at me, shouting as I neared the speeder. "Mean! I am better than yOU!" Seating myself in the drivers seat, I used the force to buckle his safety belt, which made him even more indignant.
