"TENPL'! Get your bloody lizard off the computer!" the too-skinny young woman yelled. A remorseful black mop of hair swung slowly away from the huge gallery of Obi-Wan Kenobi pictures on the wall of the living room. He moaned softly, as if to draw his gaze from the grand collage would cause him unendurable agony. "Must I?" he whimpered, the corners of his eyes filling with his pupils straying to the figure pasted on the wall in multitude.

"Yes you must," she sighed in general irritation. The iguana, a Beanie Baby named Iggy, began levitating as the shaggy, dark form of Tenpl' mournfully closed his eyes. "Stupid Jedi," the woman glared, watching Tenpl' arch an amused eyebrow in response.

Once the iguana had come to rest on the floor, Tenpl''s eyes shot open as riveted again on the wall. The woman fingered her braid, and asked, "Tenpl', why do you insist on staring at the wall when Obi-Wan is always here anyway?" He mumbled, not turning to look at her, "Because that'd be rude. Especially since Master Jinn is always here too."

She shot another glare at him, then winced as a blast of Ricky Mart'n music came pouring out of the bedroom at an unspeakable volume. She muttered a string of colorful curses in German, and then deduced, "Hmph. Obi-Wan is awake." She looked sadly at the small pile of blankets that she had slept on last night. The Jedi had taken over her bedroom.

She stormed the two feet into the bedroom, and saw a gleefully grinning young Jedi nodding his head to the first track on the disc. "OBI-WAN! Turn that down!" she screamed, not noticing that midway through her sentence he had turned it down, leaving only her voice to echo in the room. She blushed quickly, and scowled at him, sitting in the middle of the wrecked bed. The sheets were more likely on the floor than on the bed, and he was just a tangle of the blankets that had covered the foot of the bed the last night. The didn't want to start thinking of exactly how that had happened. A low chuckle sounded from behind her, and whirled, only to find no one there. She sighed in disgust, and turned back to Obi-Wan. "Make the bed, you slept in it," she growled, and stormed off to the tiny kitchen to make some food.

She managed to find enough rice to make, and set up the rice cooker and she dug around for her favorite dish of kimch'i. She had just been down to the local Korean market the day before, and was dying to open the large jar of kimch'i that she had bought. She dragged it out of the refrigerator, and put some in a small bowl for herself, and then scooped out some rice. Obi-Wan walked into the kitchen, barely dressed, and she forced her eyes to turn away room the delightful sight.

"Hey, can I try some of that?" he asked cheerfully, and she shrugged, setting up another bowl for him and setting out some chopsticks. "How do I use these?" he peered curiously at the chopsticks. "Let me guess: They don't have anything like that back on Coruscant?" she grumbled, getting him a fork instead. "Exactly!" he smiled brightly, ignoring the sarcasm in her voice.

She began eating the kimch'i, balancing the spicy food with rice and some juice. She watched Obi-Wan pick up a huge piece of kimch'i, and smiled. She would have her revenge for his music this morning. She waited until it was far too late for his to pull the fork away, and cried out, "No, no! Obi-Wan, it's far too hot!" He stared at her, chewing unconsciously, then began gasping for air as the pepper hit his tongue. She hid a smile, and got him water to drink, only increasing the pain.

"Sithspawn!" he gasped, and she took pity on him, and encouraged him to eat some rice while she got him milk. "Thank you," he gulped, looking suspiciously at her. She smiled sadly, and shielded herself so he couldn't see her mind running around with glee in tormenting her fellow Padawan.

//A Jedi does not seek revenge, Mar,// a chiding voice arose inside her shields. She groaned, and went to the door to let her Master inside. The tall light-haired older woman smiled reproachfully at her. "Master Erbyé, what a pleasure it is for you to join me so early this morning," the young woman bowed to the older female. Master Erbyé shook her head, and replied, "A Jedi is not sarcastic either." "Yes, Master," Mar nodded, not trying to fight it.

"Have you written anything more?" Master Erbyé inquired, walking to the computer. Mar shrugged, and answered, "I wouldn't consider them stories, but they're what you wanted. I finished the Sith Academy story that you required that I complete. I think it sucks, but it's done," she turned the computer on, and opened the files. Master Erbyé wrinkled her nose at the Sith Academy story. "You are right, it does suck, but you took the challenge, used all the ideas, except for...did you include playing quarters?" Master Erbyé looked at Mar. "No, Master, I was not able to include that in there," Mar admitted, bringing up another file. "Mar-Al Ekebri, I told you to complete the exercise. You have not. We will find another cahllenge for you to finish. Hmm. This one is good. Send it to that list you're on," Master Erbyé commanded, and Mar-Al sighed, doing as her Master commanded.

"Mar, where is Master Jinn?" Master Erbyé asked. Mar looked around and shrugged. "I have no idea. Maybe he went out to the store or something," she stated, not really caring. Obi-Wan sauntered in to give her advice on his actions in the story, and she accepted it thankfully, trying desperately to ignore the Ricky Mart'n music on repeat that was still coming forth from the bedroom. "I'll talk to him later then," Master Erbyé decided, and went to the bathroom.

"Mar, the door won't open. Is someone in there?" Master Erbyé queried, poking her head around the corner. "Why don't you bloody find out for yourself, use the damned Force!" Mar grumbled incoherently. Erbyé blinked and asked politely, "What was that?" Mar smiled brightly at her, and replied, "I said that I didn't know." Mar got up and dragged her food from the kitchen in to the computer area so she could continue eating. Obi-Wan had abandoned his kimch'i for less dangerous cereal, and so she added his rice and kimch'i to her own bowls of it, smiling at her favorite food.

"Why, it's Master Jinn!" Master Erbyé called out, surprised for some reason. Someone snickered from up near the ceiling, and Mar swung her head around to see who it might be. She caught a flash of long dark hair and a golden skin color, but her neck cracked and she whined in pain, healing herself. She cursed quietly to herself, and then, on a whim, caught Master Jinn leaving the bathroom as Master Erbyé entered. Master Jinn looked sheepishly at Mar, and explained, "It's the only place here that I could concentrate. You are always moving around, and that distracts me, the kitchen had too much emotional residue from failed cooking episodes, and I can't be around Obi-Wan without being distracted..." Mar nodded, and focused on her work again. Obi-Wan had finished his cereal, and was returning to the bedroom when he saw Master Jinn.

Mar peeked around the corner just I time to see Obi-Wan sneak up behind Master Jinn, and lick at his neck. "Good morning, Master," Obi-Wan whispered, his Master's reply a groan as they stumbled into the bedroom. "At least have the decency to close the door this time!" Mar shouted, and heard the door slam.

A soft laughter arose from behind her, and she turned again to see a dark, handsome figure sitting in the corner between ceiling and wall. "Ah, my favorite Muse," she glowered at him. He smiled sarcastically and answered in kind, "Ah, my dear Padawan Mar-Al Ekebri. How are you today?" She glanced at him, and went back to eating her kimch'i, mumbling, "Not so well, because of the PWP you made me write last night." She made a rude gesture towards the noisy bedroom, and sighed, "I'm never going to get those stains out of the sheets, am I?" He shook his head, and smiled, flipping down from the ceiling to the floor near the oblivious Tenpl''s back.

"Ah, my friendly writer Mar-Al. When do you get to publicly use your real name instead of that horrid screen-name that you chose?" he nearly glistened, with golden sparkles flashing across his yellow skin. The sun, if there had been any in the apartment, would have made him a blinding star of his own. "I happen to like the screen-name I chose. Engels Hasse. It means the one that is hated by the angels. And I get to use my real name when I become a Jedi Knight," she retorted. He bit at her ear and murmured, "How soon will that be?" "Not terribly, I have no control over my temper and hey!" she complained as he nipped her jugular vein.

He smiled and began whispering plot ideas into her ear. She typed some of them out, then pulled away at one he made. "I really don't think that-" she protested, but her Muse silenced her. "Just write it," he grinned lazily like a cat, a slow teeth-baring grin, impossible to fight, spreading across his face. She sighed, and typed it. A loud moan suddenly sounded from the occupied bedroom. "Use the Force, Obi-Wan, oh yes!" Master Jinn groaned. Mar-Al tittered and her Muse behind her giggled as the two occupants made vague sounds of confusion at the words, then returned to their previous activity.
