“Pictures of Times Gone By” by @badgers-cats

The blade pressed against his throat as he steps through the door is almost a relief.

“Hello there.” The voice is somewhere to his right, cast in shadows and so painfully polite that reflexive guilt twists in Cody’s stomach at having dropped by uninvited and without a gift. The stranger continues, undeterred as if a stranger stumbling into his home bristling with magic and wild with fear was a common occurrence. “Are you aware you’re bleeding on my floor? I had just mopped.”

Summary:

Obi-wan doesn’t need to look at the knives to know how sharp they are. His gaze focuses instead on the face of the man who he is about to entrust his safety to, the one who is both his partner and opponent in this narrative they had both set on stage and in the relationship they had built outside of it.

And he doesn’t look away when Cody throws the first knife at him.
