(sorry i made a mistake in my last ask, pls ignore it, here’s the one i wished to prompt 😭🙏)
bexl, heleo, Anakin
bexl /belx/ verb to covet (obsessive or attached love)
heleo //he.le.o/ interjection An expression of great apology. Analogous to begging for forgiveness.
Anakin has never seen Obi-Wan angry before. Until this moment, he would have doubted it was possible. The concept of his Jaieh raising his voice is— genuinely unfathomable.
Being confronted with that unfathomable thing leaves him gaping and shockingly hollow inside.
“What,” says Obi-Wan, that anger so present in his voice that Anakin can barely follow his words, “were you thinking? What did you think you were doing, Padawan? Why did you do that, of all the boorish, uncalled for, unsafe things you could have done? You could have gotten yourself and at least 30 civilians killed, why—”
“I—” Anakin starts, nearly chokes on his tongue. He’s so shocked he can’t even find the bravado to raise his voice back. “Jaieh, heleo, I wasn’t— I didn’t mean— Obi-Wan, I just wanted to keep you safe, ‘cause you’re important to me, and—”
“If I am so important to you,” Obi-Wan cuts him off, which he has never done before, “that you would risk the lives of yourself and others for only me, then you are drowning in bexl, Padawan. We will discuss this more later.”
