Relaxed again, and still on the verge of sleep, Obi-Wan studied Maul. He was asleep on the floor, wedged against the wall opposite the bed Obi-Wan was on. No pillows or blankets, just his large outer robe balled up beneath his head.
Obi-Wan felt the familiar pang in his stomach, somewhere between pity and guilt. Much like when he had seen Maul suspended in the bacta tube, Obi-Wan was struck by how small Maul was. How fragile and human he looked, curled on the floor asleep and vulnerable. That sleeping on the ground like this, without a bed, must have been normal for him. That Maul had simply assumed his place was on the floor.
But these thoughts were jumbled, coming and going like dream fragments, mixed with memories of other people.
Half asleep, but determined to fix this, Obi-Wan felt blindly around him for something. His hands finally landing on a nearby pillow. Having found what he sought, Obi-Wan groggily took hold of the pillow, and threw it haphazardly across the room- vaguely in Maul’s direction.
With dream like logic, Obi-Wan’s mind felt satisfied that it had solved the problem, and quickly swept him back to sleep.
++ Obi-Wan half asleep throwing a pillow at Maul. Maul instantly waking up, about to kill a man…
…and then just whispering “what the fuck, Kenobi.” When he sees it’s a pillow and that Obi-Wan is a dead asleep.
Maul looking around not exactly sure what he is supposed to make of this situation. Picking up the pillow and looking at it with confusion. Finally, hesitantly, deciding that if it’s here he might as well use it. Falling back asleep hugging the pillow.
