    Summary

    In the dark Cyrus whispers, “I’m scared.”

    If this were a story, this would be told in flashback. If this were a story, it might be skipped. This wouldn’t be the start. They wouldn’t linger here.

    Dorian says, “I’m scared too. Go back to sleep.”

    (The music is different now. Spoilers for Episode 93).

    Summary

    “My name is Din Djarin,” had been the first thing he’d said when Cobb opened his door to him that ordinary evening a few months after the Mandalorian had helped them kill a dragon.

    Cobb had taken him in slowly; that beskar armour looking a lot more scuffed than he’d have thought possible, the half torn cape hanging at his back, some kinda of spear alongside the rifle on his back and no satchel over his shoulder to hide a little one in. 

    Even if it hadn’t been for that Cobb would’ve known something had happened by the slumped slope of the man’s shoulders - the confident tall posture of someone who knows exactly who they are and their purpose in life replaced by hunching of his back, a hanging of his head, like he was trying to impact the world as little as possible.

    Cobb has all the patience in the world for helping Din to heal.

    Summary

    It is obvious he has chosen to refrain from familiarity. This is the way he regards others, when trying to calculate their motives, decide if they pose a threat and come up with the best course of action. This is the look usually reserved for strangers.
    Perhaps Cody is just that now—a stranger.
    He cocks his head to the side, genuinely curious even as he tests the waters.
    Tion gar nu’morutar ni?
    Do you not welcome me?
    AKA

    Cody finally finds Obi Wan on Tatooine. He tells him the truth—about order 66, and…a more heartfelt confession—hoping to find peace for both of them, but more importantly, for Obi Wan. He hadn’t planned to stay, but maybe, just maybe, they’ll find a little more in each other. (They do. They did. They always have and will. Denial is just a fun state to be in.)
    “Why do you cry?”
    “Because I have been blind, because I am a far bigger fool than I ever imagined. Because you overestimate my place in your life, but underestimate yours in mine.”
