20 Days of Obikin Challenge, Day 3: Hurt/Comfort
As expected, the work week kinda kicked my butt when it came to writing, but I’ll catch up!

Anakin is…lost. Well, no, he’s technically not lost, he’s in a little nook on the Vigilance, a charging station for cleaning droids that’s currently not being used. But it gets him out of easy sight in the corridors, and he doubts anyone will look for him here. As far as he knows Ahsoka is in her own quarters, and Obi-Wan is on the bridge.
(Does the man ever sleep? He must do so at some point, right? Come to think of it, Anakin hasn’t actually seen him so much as nap since the clone wars started.)
He’s shoved himself back into the niche in the wall, kneeling with his hands folded in his lap and his back held rigidly straight. The posture is difficult to hold, and his muscles have started to quiver with the strain. It’s submissive, it’s controlled, and he can’t seem to bring himself to break it. How long has he been out here? Hours? Something like that. It’s a long trip back to Coruscant, and he’s planning to spend it all just like this. The ache in his knees and his back are just enough to make it impossible for him to think.
