Kanan

[ihateflying]

He's waiting when Kanan arrives. He is neither happy to see the man, nor particularly hostile. At best, he is long suffering. At worst, he is somewhat irritated by the interruption ...At worst he is deeply concerned about what the purpose of this visit may be, and the potential that he is on the verge of hearing some very bad news.

He does not even know who, specifically, this man is and it is not something that he addresses before pivoting away from his open doorway and gesturing the other figure through it. "Inside." The hut is spartan as anything, but it is sheltered - both from sand and heat. "Close the door behind you, please."

"I don't think I can do that." He's going to get scolded, or at least that very arched look he remembers Master Kenobi giving his youngling classmates when they were thoughtless in lessons, and he's certain that look wont hide any of the held back laughter he remembers. But he's not going to put the rest of his companions in danger for his and Ezra's problems. It's precisely because they're not Force sensitive that he needs them to stay as far away from this as possible. He, Ezra, and Ahsoka can hardly keep the Inquisitors at bay on their own. What chance do Zeb and Sabine have, even as skilled as they are?

What chance would Hera have?

"But you said that was because of this artifact. I can't imagine it would be the same exact thing you dealt with, Ma- er, Ben." He catches himself awkwardly, shifting in his chair again to where it's almost a squirm. This feeling is one he hasn't had in awhile, one of seeking approval. He's been his own master for so long it's very strange to fall back into old habits, but Ben - Obi-Wan - he opens old wounds and awakens old habits that Kanan thought dead and buried with Caleb Dume.

"The Inquisitors will be there, I'm certain of that much. This isn't a fight for the rest of the Spectres. The Rebellion needs them."

"Can you imagine a scenario where a sith temple that was once a battle site isn't guarded against Jedi? Or that the guarding won't involve the Force?"

Scolded? No, but his tone is a bit sharp and a lot exasperated.

Honestly, what is this man thinking.
