Thinking again (again again again) about "Quinlan was here?" in the OWK show. The way Obi-Wan's fingers run tenderly over the carving that Quin left. The way his eyes light up. The way he smiles for the second time in the entire show so far. The way Tala chuckles when she says "yeah, he helps, smuggling younglings" with this deeply fond smile. The way Obi-Wan reads what the carving says like he's both hopeful again for the first time in years and also like he might cry. The way Leia asks "see what?" in a soft voice because she can tell it matters to Obi-Wan. Quin worried he was damned to darkness, but he’s actually a blazing light during the darkest of times.
