Until they give me a live action Quinlan Vos – the animated version will have to do!\u00a0 (Though anyone can think of a good actor to portray him – send me their name)<\/span><\/p>\n

So it’s May the 4th Be With You!\u00a0 I’m a few days from going to have some fun at Disneyland’s Star Wars Night.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I’m a full believer that Quinlan and Obi-Wan are the ride or die type friends.\u00a0 Quinlan would pretty much kill anyone who goes after Obi-Wan, and Obi-Wan would help him hide the body.\u00a0 \u00a0So here’s a small scene set in the Sylum Universe.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

PS Don’t forget to follow along my other Star Wars fic<\/span> I Will Carry You<\/a> – being posted on A03<\/span><\/p>\n

Now on to the Snippet<\/span><\/p>\n

Quinlan Vos moved through the Temple with determination.\u00a0 He didn’t let anyone distract him from his goal.\u00a0 Obes had been away for over a year, and their bond had been pulled the tightest he had ever felt it, and those two had been through some serious shit.\u00a0 \u00a0For a moment it had felt like it snapped, but stayed in place.\u00a0 \u00a0Something was different but he couldn’t quite tell what it was.<\/span><\/p>\n

When the rumor mill hit that Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon were back in the Temple, nothing was stopping him.<\/span><\/p>\n

The door opened before he even knocked.\u00a0 Qui-Gon gave him a small smile, waved his hand towards Obi-Wan then ran off.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Smart man.<\/span><\/p>\n

He knows Qui-Gon makes Obi-Wan happy.\u00a0 \u00a0But he was the one who held him while he dealt with the rejections so he still reserves the right to break his nose … again.\u00a0 If need be.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Obes!”\u00a0 He sauntered into the main living area to see his friend curled up on the couch with a cup of tea and tablets.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“Quin.”\u00a0 Obi-Wan gave him a full genuine smile.\u00a0 “I’ve missed you.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“That’s because I’m awesome.”\u00a0 He made his way to the kitchen fixed himself a cup of tea, and grabbed some fruit before settling next to his friend.\u00a0 “I want details.\u00a0 Something is different but I’m not sure yet.\u00a0 \u00a0So unless you want these gloves to come off and I find my own answers.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Kenobi sighed and set his tea down.\u00a0 He knew Quinlan would totally do exactly what he threatened.\u00a0 “I told you about Nico.”<\/span><\/p>\n

He nodded, never having told his friend that the Roman had showed up for his Knighting.\u00a0 He had seen him and the big guy, Kenway, in the shadows.\u00a0 \u00a0Quinlan knew how to look in the shadows.\u00a0 “What about him?”<\/span><\/p>\n

“I had a vision of his death.”\u00a0 Quinlan set his own tea cup down and scooted closer.\u00a0 He knew how much Nico meant to his friend.\u00a0 He gave him the confidence he needed to take on the bullies in the creche.\u00a0 He also shared the parkour knowledge with Quinlan, which had come in handy over the years.\u00a0 \u00a0“He’s fine, but I ended up staying and helping with what he was doing.\u00a0 \u00a0I discovered more about who he is, and well in the process.”\u00a0 He took a deep breath, trying to figure out the best way to explain the situation.\u00a0 “I was Turned, changed.\u00a0 He’s what they call a Vampire.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“What does that mean.”\u00a0 Quinlan sensed this is what that change he felt.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Technically I’m dead.\u00a0 But not.”\u00a0 Obi-Wan let Quinlan feel all the pulse points.\u00a0 “I at least got a few told you so’s to Qui-Gon as he was my Mate.\u00a0 It’s a thing for Vampires having a person to spend this immortal life with.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Quinlan sat back for a moment and studied his friend seeing no difference except a slight perception in the Force.\u00a0 \u00a0If it was possible he would say he was Lighter than he was before.\u00a0 “These Vampires are physically dead but still alive and have immortality.\u00a0 \u00a0How does that work?”\u00a0 He listened carefully as Obi-Wan explained all the nuansance, adding in the heightened senses, the ability to move faster.\u00a0 \u00a0He explained that the Forced didn’t feel different, but calling to it was simpler.\u00a0 “How does this work now?”<\/span><\/p>\n

“We’ve talked to the Council, not much they can do about it.\u00a0 Mace went down with a headache and muttering about shatterpoints and cursing our names.\u00a0 Yoda nodded a few times, makes me wonder if he knew a few of these Vampires.\u00a0 I’ve never heard of them in the Core Worlds.\u00a0 \u00a0I was going to do some research and see if can find anything.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“So you’re going to stay the same while I grow old?”<\/span><\/p>\n

“That’s the hard part.”\u00a0 He admitted softly.\u00a0 “Knowing I’ll leave those I care behind.\u00a0 I’m sure Yoda will make some comment about one with the Force, and well he’s outlived many of his Padawans…”<\/span><\/p>\n

Quinlan clapped his hands together.\u00a0 “How does being Turned work?”<\/span><\/p>\n

“What?”\u00a0 Obi-Wan looked at him slightly confused.<\/span><\/p>\n

Quinlan gave him an unimpressed look.\u00a0 “If you think for five seconds that I’m going to be left behind.”\u00a0 \u00a0He held up his hand stopping what ever idiotic bullshit that was going to come out of his mouth.\u00a0 “Nope.\u00a0 This is not up for discussion.\u00a0 You need me.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“Seriously?”<\/span><\/p>\n

“One.”\u00a0 He held up one finger. “Someone needs to be here to smack Qui-Gon when he’s being an idiot.\u00a0 Mate or no he’s going to be an idiot.\u00a0 Two.”\u00a0 Held up the second finger.\u00a0 “You are a trouble magnet.\u00a0 So someone will need to be here to help Qui-Gon handle the crazy.\u00a0 Three.”\u00a0 He held up the third finger.\u00a0 “Since Kybuck Clan we’ve been in the thick of things.\u00a0 If you think I’m going to let you run off on this grand adventure without me.\u00a0 Think again.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“This is a big decision.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“I notice you’re not saying no.”\u00a0 Vos pointed out.\u00a0 “Nico obviously has family and friends around.\u00a0 You’ll need the same.”<\/span><\/p>\n

He studied his friend carefully.\u00a0 \u00a0Honestly Obi-Wan had contemplated asking him, he had a hard time seeing his life without Quinlan in it.\u00a0 \u00a0He meditated and the Force was being very vague on the notion.\u00a0 \u00a0“We’ll have to alert the Healer’s ward, as you’ll need blood afterwards.\u00a0 \u00a0That’s the other downside, you must consumer blood to survive.\u00a0 \u00a0And the only way to kill a Vampire is by taking their head.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“Wonder if blood tastes different from different species.”\u00a0 Vos contemplated not even blinking at the idea of drinking blood.\u00a0 “I’m in.\u00a0 Think about the pranks we can plan, generations will fear our names!”<\/span><\/p>\n

Obi-Wan rolled his eyes, then scooted over and hugged his friend, who held on just as tightly.\u00a0 “Thank you.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“Obes staying with you for eternity is not a problem.\u00a0 We’ll just have to find me a Mate at some point.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“I’m sure the poor person will have to be an asshole to deal with your shenanigans.”\u00a0 He snorted into his friends shoulder.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“They will be lucky to have me.”\u00a0 Quinlan gave a huff.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Yes they would.”\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There was a lot to do, and he was sure the Healers were going to have a fit, along with the Council.\u00a0 Obi-Wan didn’t care, he was going to have his best friend with him while navigating this new life.<\/span><\/p>\n
