   Summary

   He thought of the bond between them. The connection that hummed in his chest, warm and constant. The way Obi-Wan’s presence soothed him, even in the darkest moments. The way he’d always felt whole when they were together.

   And the way Obi-Wan had never said a word about it. Had never acknowledged it. Had never—

   He doesn’t feel it, Anakin thought, and the words curdled in his mind. The bond is just… the vestiges of training. Just a master-apprentice thing. He doesn’t feel what I feel.

   He had always known that, but somehow, it hurt more now.
