Clee: Qui, why are you holding the child like that?

Tahl: How’s he holding the child?

Clee: On his hip. Like a toddler. Qui-Gon he’s fifteen.

Qui-Gon: According to the mind healers he’s mentally younger, but we just call that a trauma response.

Obi-Wan: ??? Master you /caused/ that trauma.

Qui-Gon: I know. It’s why I’m restricted to the temple for the next year.

Obi-Wan: *sighs and curls into his neck*

Clee: Qui. Answer the question. Why are you holding him? Is he hurt? Do we need a healer?

Qui-Gon: *hedgingly* Well. Not a healer. We’ll need one if I set him down. Listen, I called Master and he called Master Nu who’s hunting down the temple exorcist, it’ll be fine.

Clee and Tahl: *spend a minute arguing mentally over the situation*

Obi-Wan: He means for the room. I’m fine. I’m not possessed right now. Master only says I’m possessed when I bite Grandmaster and he wants a clean getaway, since Grandmaster is superstitious.

Clee and Tahl: …*more furious mental arguing*

Qui-Gon: *deep sigh, finally sags a little when Master comes in with Nu and the temple exorcist*

Exorcist: Alright, what’s the issue and how are you qualified to tell if this room needs cleansing?

Qui-Gon: Well. See. When I set him down he immediately starts seizing and having visions of a dark war from a hundred years ago. I assume this is in your perview.

Exorcist: *muttering* ‘why is it always the little seers’ okay, sure, I won’t need proof, I’ll take your word for it, get out so I can do my work.
