A 5×4×5 drabble for the May Trope Mayhem prompt 'Royal x Knight' - I thought it would fit well for Codywan, but I couldn't actually make a story work, so you're just getting a kind of fairy-tale-ish drabble :)

Cody was supposed to be
Just one in a number of
Forgettable faces, crowds of soldiers
Born to serve, no individuals.
~
Obi-Wan was meant to be
A shining star, an heir
Following a legacy of old
Not his own futile dreams.
~
They should not have met
Not have seen each other
As people, equals in life
Nor fallen in destructive love -
~
Yet they found each other
And with the other's help
Each found a way in life
That suited them fully, truly
~
And their love not destructive
But building, creating a space
For this royal and knight
To live happily ever after.
