Hello There!
And to celebrate this day – re showcasing a small snippet!
“Hello There.” Obi-Wan gave the Separatist General a slow smirk.
‘Does he always do that?’ Rex asked over the comms.
‘Yes.’ Cody sighed and was thankful the bucket kept him from facepalming. ‘According to Jinn, he’s been doing it since he was eight.’
Rex slowly shifted until he was looking at his vod. ‘Seriously.’
‘Oh yes, the story goes that the Council wanted Jinn to take young snarky Obi-Wan as a Padawan. Neither thought this was a good idea. Eight year old, told Jinn that he was an idiot on his last mission, and Jinn told, said eight year old he was a spoiled brat.’
‘Perfect match.’ Rex drawled.
‘According to General Yoda.’ Cody bit back the heavy sigh as General Kenobi flirted and snarked his way through the negotiations. He signaled Ghost Squad to keep an eye out for hostiles. ‘The Green Troll…’
‘CODY!’
‘Sorry General Green Troll.’ Cody snarked, ignoring the laughter that he was sure wasn’t Rex and wondered who had hacked into their comms. ‘Got them on a transport together, how I do not know and likely don’t want to know. Xanatos, Jinn’s apprentice that went dark, kidnapped Obi-Wan and sold him into slavery, who promptly escaped and started a slave revolt, but that’s a whole nother story. When Jinn and Xanatos were in their epic battle of death … according to Obi-Wan, who just randomly popped up and said ‘Hello There’ startling Xanatos, who was so damned shocked to see the kid that he grabbed him and was going to toss him over the edge of the roof – this dramatic moment is how they became Padawan and Master.’
‘It didn’t quite happen that way, darling.’
‘It happened exactly that way.’ Jinn popped onto the comms. ‘You then stabbed Xanatos with your throwing knife and he dropped you over the edge.’
‘I caught the ledge. Nothing I hadn’t done before.’
‘But you were eight.’ Rex added into this loving snarky commentary.
‘Been doing it since I was six.’
‘My point exactly.’ Jinn commented.
‘So while you’re all gossiping about my childhood exploits.’
‘You jumped off a ledge two days ago!’ Fives added to the conversation. ‘General, sir.’
‘WHAT?!’ Cody and Jinn yelled at the same time.
‘We’ll talk about that later, right now I’m being taken hostage, I’m likely going to stab someone so …’
There was a scream, the sound of drodika’s firing up, along with a lightsaber.
“Well Hello There.” Obi-Wan smiled at the approaching army.
I don’t remember that one. Lol. I now feel like I need to read some Snarky Baby Wan fiction. 😀
