Ooh, very nice, creepy story! First I was surprised by this general tendency to write evil Obis, but I admit that I'm really starting to like it. He seems to be capable of so much more psychological evil than the other "bad guys".
I never really liked the couple Obi/Siri, but you wrote it perfectly, not too much and not too little.
Now you know what you should write? The other alternative! What if Garen had been sent instead of Siri?

Mummy
- Oh, I so adore this. Evil, poetry-spouting Obi . . . I love evil Obi.
I like how you wrote this from Siri's POV; it increased the mystery behind Obi's madness. And the poem, then the ending!
Amazing job, dear mum.
And the cover art fits so well. I see so much conflict in it, just like in the ficcie.

Oh, very nice, I loved the evil (mad
) Obi-Wan. Very dark and lovely.

The beautiful part of writing is that you don't have to get it right the first time, unlike, say, a brain surgeon.

: Yep, it was Siri who was killed. She's the one who feels pain - it's inferred rather than directly stated, but yep.
I refer to Anakin a lot in the story, so you can guess what he's up to - Palpatine has found him, so that can't be good.
Thank you.
Jedi_Bant
: I'm not sure what you mean. I try to be different in what I do, and I don't copy anyone else, ever.
Nat
: I believe this is the month for Evil Obi's, actually, so that might explain all the ones you're seeing.
Yeah, the other bad guys are generally established as just being, well, bad guys, not really psychologically going to mess with you types, except maybe Palpatine.
He can be fun to write this way.
Garen? Why would you want me to do that?
Garen'd end up just as dead.
Thank you.
StarFighter5
: I live for strange.
Thank you.
Vongchild
: Doesn't he?
Thank you.
Liana
: So you liked the poetry part?
Yeah, I wanted to do it from Siri's POV for that reason. I wanted to hint at what Obi-Wan plans, not spell it out in his thoughts.
Besides, I think writing his thoughts in this would be rather challenging.
Thank you.
The cover art was fun to make, too.
red_rose_knight
: Thank you.
I think he's both evil and somewhat mad, myself. Mad, but not unaware of what he's doing and the wrongness of it, I guess.
Thanks.
