Wow! This was awesome, Jennifer_Lyn! I could hardly believe it when I saw the dare, but you made it work wonderfully. Hard to imagine that there's actually chemistry between Kenobi and Ventress! shock Excellent job!

That was great!! It had everything - suspense, humor and even angst. I really liked it - the last few lines were especially touching.

At first I was a little skeptical of Obi/Asajj...But once I started to read, I was sucked in. The only distraction was I kept thinking of Starbucks and coffee when I saw Venti....
Curious to read the other challenge piece, though.

Darn this dare and all of you as well! There is a post going up shortly for the first part of an (I cannot believe I'm typing this) Obi-Wan Kenobi/Asajj Ventress post-RotS short story.

Thank you all so much for your kind words. I just follow the Obi-shaped muse on my desk and he tells me what to write! grin

Beautiful answer to an evil dare. I have to say, if someone had told me Obi/Asajj could be written believably I would've paid their taxi fare to the psychiatrist. tongue But this is fantastic, and I really love how you incorporated the SiriWan at the end.

Very nicely written, and I did laugh at the Grey One's passing right next to them and not noticing.

Great work! Will check in on the longer fic wink

Nem happy

Very interesting... but very good.

I liked the fact they both had the same thoughts about undercover work grin

Liked the idea of the Grey One too, but it seemed like if there was only one, Kenobi and Ventress together could beat him. But all in all, well thought out and put together.

EDIT: I liked the art too!

Great story! I liked the art too. I also thought that she wasn't having to imagine anyone (But she wouldn't admit it). Something about this part especially made me actually really feel for her:
Jennifer_Lyn posted:
“It is a light in the darkness.” He whispered.

She turned, tears in her eyes and a look of confused wonder on her face.

JediNemesis: So glad you liked it. Thanks so much for reading! You have the Obi Workshop to thank for the Siriwan stuff!

BrentusofGath: Yeah, I realize that they could have figured another way out, but then I wouldn't have had a story would I? tongue Hence the "they'll find us if we kill him" angle.

VaderLVR64: Thanks! I couldn't help it. I can't believe I'm actually an Obi/Asajj shipper. rolling_eyes

aabbccdd: No one was more skeptical than the author! grin Thanks for reading!

Lovely-in-Orange: *sigh* Yes, Obi-Wan has faith that she could turn toward the Light side if she really wanted to. I felt like this was a way of letting her know that and somewhere inside, she understood she had a choice.

Oh my! This was unexpectedly great. It reminded me weirdly of some of the plot twists in Shakespeare's people-in-disguise comedies... Ah, what a good read.

*huffs at self* And just where was I when this was first posted!? *grumbles*

Absolutely lovely work, J_L! grin I think you may have just converted me to the Obi/Asajj pairing; it's certainly different, for one. (Normally I don't like Obi with anyone; he just doesn't strike me as that kind of guy, but you made me believe that it could work! No mean feat, let me tell you!)

The night grew long as they sat in the all-night diner drinking caff, eating crumble and weaving tales of their childhood and youth that both knew would fall apart when touched by the approaching dawn.

Best line in the whole story, J_L; it gave me chills. I love the idea of their tales being like spiderwebs, shattering in the morning light... such a vivid image! Bravo, ma dear, and lovely artwork to boot! grin
