FFN ProfileWhy this must be read:
There is a genre of tender stories regarding the first days of Anakin's apprenticeship: the first swim, the first nightmare, the first comforting. This story delves into the feelings of a young boy who is brash, and sentimental, and learning his way through unfamiliar waters of the deep-thinking Temple Jedi. He asks a basic question of young Master Obi-Wan, expecting an answer, and gets one. It's a half-try at the answer he really wants and needs to hear, but Anakin adapts to the compromise. Much later and more poignantly, Obi-Wan wishes he had answered differently.
