more intimately than lovers

Sorry I spaced out I was remembering how SW Novels!Obi-Wan is canonically familiar with the sight of Anakin’s butt and canonically took it upon himself to smack said butt during a public sparring session and canonically holds some measure of resentment towards Anakin’s wife and canonically confesses his love for Anakin to everyone but Anakin and canonically refers to him in his own internal monologue as “quite beautiful” and as his “beautiful friend” and canonically takes note of how Anakin’s neck blushes when he’s worked up and has canonically said the words “every good boy deserves a treat” to Anakin and I was wondering what all that was for

huge fan of ship dynamics where person a does not know how desired they are and person b is about to pop a blood vessel about it
