I have the RotS DVD! I spent most of yesterday afternoon watching the special features, though my attempts to get at the Easter Egg all ended in failure.
This week's Padme AU is proving more difficult than I anticipated, but I actually intend to post on Thursday. Meanwhile, since I always end up writing drabbles when away from the main computer, for the tpm100 lust challenge:
Lust was not exactly of the Dark Side, but of all the emotions of the grey area, it ran by far the closest.
It disturbed Qui-Gon sometimes when he touched Obi-Wan: the greed he felt, the insatiability. On Obi-Wan's account more than on his own, for he suffered the same from lust. Many years of experience allowed him to deal with the danger, but he could not escape the fact that he was exposing his apprentice to it.
What allowed him to continue on was the knowledge that Obi-Wan knew what they risked, and was brave enough to face it.
