Chapter 1
Siri Tachi cruised through the traffic grid of Coruscant, reveling in the wind that blasted her face and whipped through her blonde hair. She had deliberately chosen an open-cockpit speeder for her journey from the spaceport to her home so she could feel this sensation again. When the spires of the Jedi Temple came into view, she couldn't help the wide grin that took over her face and the elation that took hold in her heart.
Home. After months of slogging through the jungles of Kashyyyk with only clone troopers for company - they weren't bad company, just a little too focused on all things military - it would be good to see some familiar faces. After witnessing so many brutal slayings and wanton destruction, it would be refreshing to find some reminder of innocence and joy. She would make it a point to watch some of the youngling training sessions during her time home.
Not long ago Siri would have snorted at the thought of observing the children's sessions. Pointless, she would have called it. There was too much for an important Jedi Knight to do than to just sit and watch exercises that she had already been through. She remembered the last time she found Obi-Wan seated on the edge of the training field, watching as Master Drallig led the children in exercises. It had been a few days after the Battle of Geonosis, and as she approached him, she felt the need to lighten his mood.
"Trying to reclaim your youth, old man?"
Without taking his eyes off the field, his reply was soft, "This is our future, one of the reasons we are going to war. Yet that very thing may be what destroys them all."
"You're even starting to sound old," she teased, dropping to the grass next to him. "Hey, we won the first battle."
"But at what price? How many of our friends died? How many of the clones died?" He let out a breath. "The battle would not have ended the way it did without those troopers, but is it right to bring beings into the world for such a purpose?"
Obi-Wan looked at her directly, and she could see the conflict darken his eyes. An old, familiar feeling came alive in her, and she had to resist the urge to lift her hand and stroke the side of his face. All she could offer him was words.
"Your upbringing and your soul demand that you ask such a question," she said. "As horrible as the thought may seem to us, those clones - those men - were created and raised to fight. Their creation wasn't necessarily a good thing, but here they are. And their souls demand that they fight for the given cause, which fortunately happens to be our own. Now that they are alive, would you deny them the chance to fill their duty?"
He simply nodded, absorbing her words. The two sat in companionable silence for a time before Obi-Wan stood up. In a gesture that was gallant yet came naturally to him, he offered his hand to help her up and, in a teasing tone, said, "If I'm getting old, you're not far behind, Master Tachi. Only a few years separate us."
Siri smiled and accepted his help. As their hands touched, warmth spread through her body and feelings that she had carefully kept buried simmered and threatened to spill over into her heart. As soon as she was standing, she let go of his hand and tried not to look at his face. She could sense the same struggle in him, so they bade farewell and walked in opposite directions.
Yes, she thought with a grim face, separated by only a few years. And an ages-old, rigid code.
Obi-Wan. It would do her a lot of good to see her friend. His serenity was just the thing she needed now. That and maybe a chance to knock him off his feet in the sparring room, she thought grinning. She stretched out her feelings through the Force to see if she could sense his presence.
BAM! It hit her like a charging bantha. Obi-Wan was home, all right. In fact, his Force signature had never been so strong. Finding it so suddenly was like getting hit in the stomach. Unprepared as she was, Siri had to catch her breath.
I have a bad feeling about this, she thought.
The act of sensing other beings in the Force was a subtle art. It took years of training, a strong focus and a special bond to be able to find a specific person. Though she and Obi-Wan had decided years ago to bury their deeper feelings for each other in the name of duty, they still worked together and were based at the Temple. Siri never claimed to be a perfect Jedi, and in her more needy moments she would often seek out the comfort of his presence in the Force. In it, she could find a subtle glow that offered its gentle warmth, like sunlight filtering through the trees in the forest.
That's why this not-so-subtle burst of light was so startling. Not to mention that it seemed to be slightly off.. Discordant., Siri thought. Something has happened.
She set the speeder down on a landing pad at the temple and jumped out, rushing toward the door. Just as she was about to cross the threshold, she ran into a brick wall. Or what felt like one anyway. "Oof!" Her bottom hit the floor with a thud.
"Master Tachi, I apologize." Anakin Skywalker helped her stand up. "I was in bit of a hurry."
"Anakin. You're very tall." She smiled up at him. "And it looks like you've become a knight."
His hand reached up to where his padawan braid used to rest, and he grinned. "Yep. It's finally gone. I know Master Obi-Wan says patience is a good thing, but ..."
Suddenly Siri remembered what she wanted to do. "Obi-Wan! Do you know where he is?"
"Yes, he's working out, but there's something you should-"
Not wanting to waste any more time, Siri took off through door, disappearing into the depths of the Temple. Anakin considered going after her. If she found his former master, she was going to be in for a little surprise. But it wasn't his problem. Let Obi-Wan do the explaining. He's good at that.
When Siri reached the training wing, there was no need to ask anyone where Obi-Wan was working out. His presence was a beacon that drew her to the private studio all the way at the end of the hall. When she opened the door, she saw the object of her curiosity practicing falling drills with another man, one she didn't recognize from behind, though if Obi-Wan hadn't been facing she would have sworn it was ...
Then the two circled around and she got a good look at the stranger's face - and almost fell to the ground in shock.
"What the kriff?"
Both men stopped and turned to the door, almost in tandem. Now that they were both facing her, their appearance was very striking. They were identical, right down to the golden streaks that highlighted their ginger-colored hair, though the locks of one of them reached his shoulders. Both stood at exactly the same height, with an equally muscled build, more noticeable than usual in the light workout tunics.
Siri felt her mouth go dry. By the Force, how was she supposed to be a good Jedi when there was
two
of them to draw this reaction from her. She shook her head to dispel those thoughts. She turned her gaze back to their eyes to look for any differences there. Sharing the same cerulean hue, one set gazed at her with open affection, while the other just stared intently, as if trying to calculate her thoughts.
Before she could speak, the one with longer, scruffier hair approached with a smile. "Siri, you're back. It's been too long." He took her shoulders and kissed her cheek. She was electrified but recovered quickly and looked at his face. "As you can see, we have a guest." He gestured at his companion.
"What-? How-?" Siri couldn't find the words.
The man she presumed to be Obi-Wan grinned and said, "He's a clone. It would seem the Kaminoans are trying to branch out from the regular soldier troopers. Do you think they did a good job?" She couldn't stop herself from staring at the other figure, who looked very uncomfortable.
"I- ah-" Again, words failed her.
"Let me introduce you. Siri, this is JD-OBK1 of what may be a new clone diplomatic corps. He goes by the name Jak. Jak, this is Jedi Master Siri Tachi, a longtime colleague and dear friend."
Siri turned toward the more reserved man and was about to extend her hand, when he suddenly bent forward into a formal bow. She responded in kind and looked into his eyes. His gaze was direct, and he seemed to be looking for something. After an uncomfortable moment, he looked away.
"We're still working on relations training. He's a prototype the Kaminoans sent to the Council in hopes of securing a contract."
Siri looked at her friend. "Obi-Wan, I know how you felt about the clones at the start of the war. Doesn't this ... bother you? And how did they get your genes to make the clone?"
"Apparently, when I first visited Kamino and discovered the clones, I left behind some, ah, genetic material. An enterprising designer turned it into this." He looked to his genetic twin thoughtfully. "Yes, it was very disconcerting to see myself and feel another presence so similar to my own in the Force. But he's already here, so I have taken him under my wing while I'm home."
He broke his gaze and turned to her smiling. "But there's too much to tell to talk about it now. I have much to do tonight, but have breakfast with me tomorrow morning. We can talk more then."
All Siri could do was nod. She was more than a little shellshocked, and being in a room with what was essentially two Obi-Wans was wreaking havoc with her balance. Her Force sensibility was overwhelmed by the brilliance of Obi-Wan's presence and the confusion of the situation. She couldn't get enough of a foothold to find her balance and sort out her feelings. Looking back once more at the man introduced to her as Jak, she thought she sensed frustration and even a bit of anger. It was too much to take in at once.
She turned to the men and gave them a nod before walking out of the room. When she was gone, the man with longer hair turned to his companion and said in a smooth, cultured voice, "So, Master Kenobi, do you think we fooled her? Did I play my role well?"
Obi-Wan Kenobi looked at the man who had been created from his own flesh and said, "Yes, you did." He sighed. A little too well.

RE: Double Vision (Obi-Wan clone fic) - Siri, Obi-Wan (x2)
Chapter 2
Siri walked through the deserted halls of the Temple, the sound of her boots echoing off the high stone ceilings. The single noise made her feel the emptiness of the halls more keenly.
When there wasn't a war going on, Padawans and Knights would mill about the hallways, even at this late hour, catching up with friends between missions or debating the merits of Vapaad over Soresu. Others spent time in the training rooms refining their techniques, learning new forms or just working up a sweat. For Knights who worked in the field, time at home was for rest, reflection and renewing acquaintances.
It was with the first of the three Siri had in mind as she walked toward the meditation gardens. After her bizarre encounter with Obi-Wan and his clone, she tried to fill the rest of her day with activity so she wouldn't have to think about the situation. She had met with the Council to give her mission report, then spent the rest of the day in a studio, working out with a training droid. With all her extra energy and tension, she had been the one to give it a workout. She grinned, remembering the satisfaction of knocking the thing to bits. She would bring the bundle of parts to Anakin tomorrow. It was the sort of thing he would understand, even as his former master would have just grimaced and made some remark about controlling her aggressions.
Somehow, smashing a droid didn't give her the tranquility she was looking for. Even worn out from her mission and the workout, she tossed and turned on her sleep couch. After weeks of sleeping outdoors, her quarters were stifling. So she sought a breath of fresh air ... or the closest thing you could get to it on Coruscant.
As she walked in the garden, she was enveloped by the blue glow of the night lighting. She followed the path lined with flowers and shrubs for a time, then cut through a tangle of shrubbery to find her favorite spot under the two Arboray trees. The lean trunks were spaced a few meters apart, but they slanted together, their branches joining to form an umbrella over a patch of wild grass. It was an ideal place for solitude - usually.
Siri was surprised to discover that her spot was taken. Stretched out on a cloak that was spread over the ground was a sleeping Jedi Master. The lack of lights made it hard to see his features, but Siri didn't need her eyes to see who it was. She reached out and sensed no noise, no shock to interfere with her judgment, and she knew for sure that this was her Obi-Wan. In the Force, she felt no blinding glare, only a soft, soothing warmth. There were no wrong notes, only tones that harmonized well with her own.
As her eyes adjusted to the shade under trees, more of his features became clear under the moon's blue glow. In the years since she and Obi-Wan had decided to set aside their feelings for each other, Siri had spent most of their time together trying to not look at him. “But here we are,” she thought and was unable to resist drinking in the sight of him. He lay on his side, his head resting on his left arm. He was dressed in his usual choice of attire, the sand-colored tunic and slightly darker trousers. “Even in his sleep not a hair is out of place,” Siri mused, smirking. She mirrored his position on the ground beside him, using her hand to prop up her head.
“He's so changed,” Siri thought, “More mature.” Memories of their teenage years surfaced, especially of those few precious hours she and Obi-Wan had opened their hearts to one another. Her eyes went to his hand, resting on the ground, and she remembered the feeling of those fingers entwined with hers. A current of energy had spread through her body, warming her core. At the time, both of their hands had been soft, with only a few calluses from lightsaber practice. She knew that her own had changed, grown more rough with age and battle.
Her gaze moved up to his face. It was this face that appeared before her in her weaker moments. The beard he had grown in the intervening years only added to its appeal. The first time she saw it, she'd had to mentally quell a desire to brush her hands across his face. She continued her study, taking in the new lines under his eyes, a scar on the side of his neck that disappeared behind his ear, the brush of hair that ended just above his ear.
Suddenly, she remembered her encounter with Obi-Wan and his clone. The main difference in appearance had been their hair. More specifically, the length.
In that moment, Siri realized that she'd been had. Before thinking, she stood up and gave him a swift kick in the ribs.
***
Obi-Wan, jarred awake, groaned, "Siri! Do you have to be so brutal?"
"You stupid gundark! You lied to me."
As the initial sharp pain dissipated, Obi-Wan opened his eyes and looked up to meet Siri's accusing glare. He sat up and sighed, rubbing his right side.
"I never lied to you. Think back, you know it's true."
"But you let HIM lie to me. And he's your clone, so essentially you're the same."
"Please. I would like to believe that we are NOT the same – at least in essentials."
This made Siri pause. Coming face to face with yourself is never easy; it must be a hundred times harder when it's actually someone else who looks exactly like you. She shuddered, imagining having to cope with a copy of herself.
"Fine. I'll cut you some slack," she said, "but you have to tell me what's going on. Why is there a Kenobi copy running around the Temple?"
"What else could we do with him? Send him to Agri-Corps?" Siri caught the tone of irony in his voice. Perhaps he was thinking of another path his life could have taken. "Siri, he is the same as me, right down to the midi-chlorians. However, he has neither my training nor my loyalty to the Order. It would be too dangerous to let him roam around the galaxy. He could fall under dark influences."
"But why do you have to baby-sit him? Wouldn't it be better for him to have a full-time guard?"
Obi-Wan remained silent and didn't quite meet her gaze. He plucked a blade of grass from the ground and twirled it between his thumb and forefinger.
"There's something else, isn't there?" Siri ducked her head to move into Obi-Wan's field of vision. "You can't hide it from me forever, so you might as well tell me. Is it that weird off-kilter feeling I get around him?"
"The Council suspects Jak was created and sent here on orders from someone, that he wasn't just a prototype, as the Kaminoans said."
Siri gasped. "You mean there could be a whole fleet of them?" Her vision clouded with the thought of facing a room full of Obi-Wan look-alikes.
A low chuckle escaped from Obi-Wan's lips and he said, "No. We're pretty sure that isn't the case. Our hope is that we're not so blind as to miss something that big." He shook his head. "My, that would be quite the sight, wouldn't it? It would give Anakin nightmares for years to come. Picture them all saying 'Your lightsaber is your life, Anakin,' all at once. It might actually drive the message into his skull."
As Siri guffawed, he continued, "No, the Council believes it was someone with malicious intent … perhaps a Sith lord."
The smile vanished from Siri's face. "Dooku? Darth Sidious?"
"Possibly. We don't know who. We don't know why. I've been instructed to lead him around and train him as if we suspected nothing…"
"… while sniffing out his real reason for being here," Siri concluded.
"That and figuring out just how well he has already been trained. I have been home for only a few days and have had no time to influence him in any way." Obi-Wan lifted his eyes to search out Siri's. "That's why I had to let the deception happen. I had to see how well he could pass for me. The result was more than a little disturbing, of course." The last statement was said in a teasing tone.
"Hey, I was confused! I was planning to seek you out anyway, but when I checked to see if you were around, I was completely overwhelmed. Your presence in the Force was blinding me, and I didn't know why."
"You mean you don't normally feel my presence so strongly?" Obi-Wan felt the need to lighten the mood, but he didn't know why. Maybe it would keep him from going in a forbidden direction. "I should be hurt. I know I don't have the brilliance of Anakin Skywalker, but …"
"Oh, you know what I mean," Siri said impatiently. She couldn't help smiling, though. "You're just not the in-your-face type. Even in the Force."
"Thinking back, I should have known that other guy wasn't you. He was way too happy, for one thing. Too obviously happy. Even on your best days, you are a closed book." Siri lay back on the grass, clasping her fingers behind her head. "And the little cheek kiss? What a sap! You're too pompous for that."
Obi-Wan closed his eyes and let out a small sigh as he leaned back against the tree trunk. "I'm not pompous, just … civilized."
"I say 'muja' You say 'moo-zhah.'"
Now it was Obi-Wan's turn to snort. "Just because you didn't pay attention in language class …"
"You were the only one awake for those lectures, my friend."
Their banter trailed into silence, and the two Jedi lay still, basking in the peace of the garden and one another's presence.
"Obi-Wan?"
"Yes?"
"Why were you in this specific spot? I used to come here all the time when I was a youngling, and no one else ever seemed to know about it. It's not exactly on the path."
"I was at the Temple for a time after my Master was killed. I was restless at night, and walked through the garden a lot. Being closer to nature – and the living Force – made Qui-Gon seem less … gone. One day I had just walked right off the path and ended up here." He brushed off some invisible flecks of soil off his shoulder. "I think I felt your presence here and was comforted. Now I know why. I've often come back. Tonight I just felt the need to be away from…"
"Yourself?" Siri said, smiling.
He lifted his head and turned his eyes to his companion. "Now you must answer a question for me. You mentioned earlier that you had planned to seek me out after arriving. I'm here. What can I do for you?"
Oh, if he only knew, Siri thought sardonically. To Obi-Wan, she simply said, "I needed to borrow some of your tranquility."
"The war."
Siri tilted her head up, looking at the moonlight filtering through the branches. More than a full minute passed in silence before she turned and spoke:
"You know, it's not the fighting and deaths that are really getting to me. Yeah, I'm affected by them. I've cried after watching the slaughter of children. Heck, I even got misty eyed when some troopers I knew were hit. They may be clones, but they are people. I even got to be … not quite friends, but closer acquaintances with some of them.
"Through all this, what really bothers me is that I don't feel like a Jedi. I mean, I've given up a lot to follow this path – knowing my family, making my own decisions about where to go and what to do, sharing what could have been a most amazing love …"
She felt her face turn hot and avoided Obi-Wan's eyes, but forced herself to continue.
"While I was happy to make these sacrifices – I wanted to be a great guardian of the peace – I'm feeling that I have been asked to step off that path too many times. Violence. Deception. I hear the voices in the Force screaming about the wrongness of it all. Yet I must obey the Council."
Now she lifted her head and met his steady blue gaze. "At the same time, they ask me – us to give up our feelings, our bond, which has always felt so right. When we're together, the Force sings to me. How can the wishes of the Council, those great and wise Masters, go so far against what the Force is telling me?"
Before Obi-Wan could reply, she said, "I know you don't have the answers. You can give me the party line, but I am not a fool. There is so much darkness, it's weighing all of us down, making the present and future murky. The line between right and wrong is less clear than it's ever been. I'm doubting everything I've ever known." Her eyes burned with tears unshed, but she refused to hide her face.
Obi-Wan watched her, taking in everything she said. After a moment's hesitation, he reached out and stroked her cheek. "Siri, I don't want to break our promise…"
"You aren't. I did." She leaned her face into his hand, reveling in the simple touch that was already melting some of the coldness she had been feeling inside. "And I can't be sorry for it. I'm confused about many things, but this feels right."
Obi-Wan sat up, gently taking his hand away. "Yes." He took a deep breath. "But it's still against the Code."
Even as the words from his lips, his eyes betrayed him. Some beings had accused Obi-Wan of having no heart, no emotions, and indeed he was often the picture of Jedi serenity. But as Siri locked her gaze with his, she felt she had never seen such depth of feeling in one expression before. She pressed her advantage.
"I'm not asking for marriage. I'm not asking for a grand romance. I just want to feel like a person again. I stopped feeling like a Jedi awhile ago, but I can bear that. Please, please let me be a human, just for this time we are both home. We know it can't be long."
Taking in her plea, Obi-Wan furrowed his brow. "Exactly what is it that you are asking for?"
"I want to feel close to you again, bring back those feelings we have tried to bury for years. Perhaps I haven't been as successful as you have-"
"Don't say that." He stood up and crossed his arms. "Don't make me out to be this paragon of Jedi restraint. My thoughts have often turned to you. More often than is good for me."
Siri rose to his level. "But you haven't tried to reconnect as I have. When I've encountered some difficult situations, more so in the past few months, I have found myself-"
"I know. Like when you were trapped in the cave on Malastare. Or when the blaster got your leg on Kashyyyk and you had to hide behind a tree until one of the Wookies could sniff you out and bring you to help."
"How did you know? I thought you were too far to sense me consciously. I never felt a response. If you knew I needed help, why didn't you answer me?"
He turned to face her. "I did. Just not directly. In the cave, do you remember falling asleep?"
"Yes. It was just after I thought I'd reached the breaking point. It was completely dark, and the air was getting hotter. The walls were closing in on me. I was sure I would die there, so I stretched out into the Force to find you and say goodbye. Suddenly I felt very drowsy, and I figured I was just running out of air. But then I had the most wonderful dream about splashing around in the Room of a Thousand Fountains. Master Yoda walked in and started scolding me, hitting his stick on the floor. "Behaving as a Jedi should, you are not!" But I was too happy to care. The next thing I remember was waking up in the medical tent back at camp."
Siri came out of her memory. "Was it you who helped me sleep? Did you give me the dream?"
The corner of Obi-Wan's mouth turned up, and his eyes sparkled. "Not really me, the Force helped you sleep - with a little nudge. That dream came from your own addled mind."
"And on Kashyyyk, you made some of the pain go away."
"How is your leg? Have you seen the healers?"
Siri rubbed the back of her thigh where a scar remained. "No more pain. The medical droids did fine. It was just a blaster wound. I don't know when I turned into such a weakling. It's been harder and harder to release my pain and anxiety into the Force. Like in the caves ... I should have been able to calm myself -"
"You're not perfect, and you're not weak. Your focus can be hard to find when your mind and body are in a traumatic situation. The Force is there for you; you just have to remember that." Obi-Wan held out his hand to her. "And I am there, too."
Skin met skin as Siri placed her hand in his, and her heartbeat quickened. Both closed their eyes and allowed the Force to flow through them, strengthening the bond they had tried to forget about for years. Siri started to feel whole, as if a missing piece of her had returned. She was elated, yet tears trailed down her face. With this new release, all the anxiety and despair she had been taught to bury flooded her heart and overwhelmed her.
Silently, Obi-Wan pulled her into his arms, giving her the comfort she needed as she tried to cope with the flood of emotions. As she sobbed into his shoulder, he pushed back the hair from her ear and whispered, "I am here. I will always be here."

Wonderful! I'm almost crying, it was a bit strange with the whole Obi clone thing going on but I can't say no to more Obi time. You really handled the relationship between Obi and Siri really well, keeping a sense of history and hope alive. Very cool.

Every time I read this, I laugh!
That is the funniest picture! I can see Anakin holding his head and groaning!
And I'm not jealous of Siri, I do have four Obi-Wans of my own!
Like him at any age!
I just hope that Obi-Wan and Siri won't do anything that George Lucas wouldn't let them do outside of marriage... I think HE sets the standard with Anakin.

She would bring the bundle of parts to Anakin tomorrow. It was the sort of thing he would understand, even as his former master would have just grimaced and made some remark about controlling her aggressions.
I really liked this. Of course Anakin would understand.
It would give Anakin nightmares for years to come. Picture them all saying 'Your lightsaber is your life, Anakin,' all at once. It might actually drive the message into his skull."
But as Siri locked her gaze with his, she felt she had never seen such depth of feeling in one expression before. She pressed her advantage.
Smart girl.
Silently, Obi-Wan pulled her into his arms, giving her the comfort she needed as she tried to cope with the flood of emotions. As she sobbed into his shoulder, he pushed back the hair from her ear and whispered, "I am here. I will always be here."
And of course, I am melting now.

Her vision clouded with the thought of facing a room full of Obi-Wan look-alikes.
- Sigh!!!!
Two are bad enough but a room full?!!!!
This is a brilliant idea. It did strike me as strange that Obi-Wan's views on cloaning had changed but I didn't guess that he was the clone.
Can't wait to find out more about the mystery!

Of course, you know I love your first post and the surprise of finding an Obi-Wan clone. I wouldn't mind having one of those for myself.
Loved the conversation between Obi-Wan and Siri in the second post. Very sweet how she's never really far from his mind.

"You mean there could be a whole fleet of them?" Her vision clouded with the thought of facing a room full of Obi-Wan look-alikes.
A low chuckle escaped from Obi-Wan's lips and he said, "No. We're pretty sure that isn't the case.
Damn! You're no fun.
But then, I don't think the galaxy can handle all that Obi-Wan!
They're so sweet together.
Love how they can still be there for each other, and not
technically
be going against the Code.

Oh lovely! Clone Obi? Poor Siri. The poor girl's got no chance now!
Very perceptive of her though, she knows her man!
I'm intrigued by what the clone's true purpose is. Somethings fishy around here.
PM me when you post more! I'm looking forward to it.

Clone Obi!
Very lovely beginning.

And never once, in a score of visions, had he found himself in a body much older than the one he had now.
His death was coming. Soon.

Absolutely wonderful! I loved the picture of an entire fleet of Obi-Wan's. Wow.
Anakin's worst nightmare.
And I am so glad that Siri and Obi-Wan have kept their Jedi vows, as hard as it is for them.
Though I could understand them deciding to get married.
Wonderful job!
Could you please PM me when you update?
Thank you!

Siri felt her mouth go dry. By the Force, how was she supposed to be a good Jedi when there was two of them to draw this reaction from her.
Siri gasped. "You mean there could be a whole fleet of them?" Her vision clouded with the thought of facing a room full of Obi-Wan look-alikes.
He shook his head. "My, that would be quite the sight, wouldn't it? It would give Anakin nightmares for years to come. Picture them all saying 'Your lightsaber is your life, Anakin,' all at once. It might actually drive the message into his skull."
Ha ha! This is a wonderful fic, I love the humour and the bittersweet moments, as well as Siri and Obi-Wan struggling to stick to the Code... damn that old fashioned Code.
lol.
Loved the conversation between them... love you're writing!
I won't be leaving you alone after this..
Please add me to the PM list!!

I read this last night and I loved it. Two obi-wans. Oh and I love how Siri was fooled for a little while there. I like how obi-wan said too well a sense of jealousy there. Look forward to the next update. please add me to pm list.

Very interesting!
Can't wait to see more of this.
I liked how Siri was able to catch on to the differences between the real Obi-Wan and the clone. Although, the kick probably was a bit harder than he would have liked.
