Always in motion is the future
“Obi-Wan!” Dex calls out the moment he sees him. The besalisk makes his way around the counter, and Obi-Wan waits for the bone-crushing hug he knows is coming. Dex’s Diner is as busy as ever, and the lunch crowd adds a low chatter in the background.
“It’s been a while, Dex.” The greeting comes out in a rush as Dex picks up the padawan and squeezes the air out of him. The familiar hug soothes Obi-Wans nerves, and he can't quite help grinning into Dex’s shoulder as he hugs back.
“So it has. You haven’t been here in months.” Dex keeps one of his upper arms on Obi-Wan shoulder and steps back. “What can I get for you? The special is always good.”
“I need a favor, Dex.” Some of his nerves must still show on his face because the besalisk frowns.
“You in some kinda trouble?”
Obi-Wan grins back and shrugs. “Not yet.”
--------------Obi-Wan gets visions of the future, and when the council makes the wrong choice, according to him, Obi-Wan can not stand back and watch. He takes the future into his own hands.
