Hello, everyone! I thought you all might want to read this. It’s sort of early-version Selay’uu… sort of. For instance, no portals this time… Bummer. And it doesn’t even have a title, even in My Documents, aside from “random stupidity.”
Anyway, I hope you enjoy! 😛
Thnap.
Obi-Wan looked up from his book to shoot a fulminating glance at Katniss Everdeen, who was instantly recognizable (don’t ask me how). She was sitting on the other sofa, chewing gum. Erin was typing busily away on the computer, seemingly not noticing the invasion of her mind palace by a character she had only heard about, never met in person. Katniss took no notice of the dangerous look, but at least she didn’t snap her gum again. Obi-Wan went back to The Silmarillion. He had always felt an odd kinship with Glorfindel and Beren…
Thnap, pop. Obi-Wan tossed his book down on the coffee table (which was covered in loose sheets of paper covered with Erin’s writings) and glared at Katniss. Suddenly, her gaze snapped up to his, as if she hadn’t even been aware of his presence before. She grinned at him, unapologetically, and popped her gum again. Obi-Wan could feel himself blushing, but he was more annoyed than embarrassed by the interruption, dangerously near to flirting as it was. Of all the cheek! he thought. He scowled at her. Katniss actually had the gumption to look over her shoulder, then point to herself, mouthing the word, Me?
I thought that was abundantly clear, Obi-Wan thought. He wasn’t bothering to mute his body language, either. Snap, snap. Not again! Obi-Wan frowned and put a finger over his lips. Katniss looked at him, raising both her shoulders and her eyebrows.
“You and I have very different notions of quiet, my friend,” he grated, dangerously low. Katniss looked offended.
“What are you talking about? I can be quiet,” she hissed under her breath.
“Then stop popping your gum!”
“I’m not popping my gum!”
“Oh, what do you call it, then?”
“Don’t you dare use sarcasm with me, mister!”
“Go flirt with someone else!”
Their little tiff was interrupted by a quiet cough. Both characters turned to see Erin, who had spun in her swivel chair and was now watching them both, her expression indecipherable and her arms crossed across her chest.
“Obi-Wan, I need your help, please,” she said after a long moment. Shooting Katniss a dangerous glance, Obi-Wan straightened his tunic and marched stiffly to the author’s side. He dropped on one knee to survey the computer screen. “And Miss Everdeen—how’d you get in here?” Katniss shrugged and vanished, off to plague Midnight instead.
Well, that’s that. What do you think? Stupid, right? 😛
Thanks for reading, and God Bless!
The Upstairs Archives 
That was actually rather funny. xD Though, having read THG, I think that an exchange between Obi-Wan and Katniss would turn out somewhat differently and possibly involve Obi-Wan telling Katniss to stop being so whiny because she sounds like Anakin. Still, I liked this a lot.
Yeah… I was just frustrated at the time, because siblings of mine were being pests. 😛 *bows* The author apologizes for defamation of an innocent character. 😛
Oh no, I don’t mind at all. Katniss is annoying. >.< I spend a lot of time wanting to smack her very hard. Sorry your sibs were being annoying.
😛 They do that all the time, I’m just about used to it by now. 😛
Very random and mindless, yes, but funny. 🙂
I agree with Sarahtps, it would have played out VERY differently.
But since you have no idea who Katniss is, you are forgiven for your portrayal of her. 😉
Jewel and Mom were both snapping their gum when this happened. 😛 ‘Nough said. 😛
Ah, that would explain that. ;-P
So annoying!!! I don’t chew gum much, myself.
Ahhh, gum-snapping, how we hate thee.
Indeed! I don’t even chew gum much.
I really liked it. A little mindless stupidity is always a good thing 🙂 (although, actually, I don’t think this is stupid at all!)
🙂 I’m glad you think so. 😀
*laughing* I never liked Katniss! Pulling for Obi-Wan the whole way. I think he should have used his lightsaber.
I doubt he would. He should have used a mind trick on her to make her spit out the gum! >:-D
Ah, but if he had, she has a strong enough mind she’d spit it out AT HIM! ;-P
That may be true… But I believe I was talking to the Professor. ;-P
So? The Professor doesn’t mind… do you Professor? 😉
*face desks, repeatedly* You little flirt. 😛
I like it. I’ve never read the Hunger Games, so, yeah… But I like it. 😉
;-P I’m glad you do.
Meep meep meep. Oh so funny.
……
Sorry… did I offend you? :’-(
What? Oh, not remotely! Au contraire. I think it’s hilarious. Srsly.
Thanks… I was rather bemused by your comment. :-S
Oh. Sorry. meepmeep would be laughing. “hahaha” gets so boring.
Ohhh… I see. 😛 I haven’t heard that one before. 😛
I suspect I made it up. I should probably stop doing things like that.
It’s possible… Don’t stop! It’s cool! 😀
Like thrilleratin’ and unfivetunately?
^_^ Yes indeed! (I think “unfivetunately” was originally a part of Victor Borgia’s “inflationary language.” I don’t watch Borgia much, but my dad does. 😛 )
That said… well, I got it from my grandfather, who was a great fan, so… you’re probably right. Only it’s Borge, not Borgia. The Borgias were Spanish. He’s Danish. Slight difference.
Oh. Whoops. *blush* I misspell things like that all the time. Once I even misspelled “Skywalker.”
Whaat? Not possible. Now… Ae’enn Narshala, or even Kenobi, I can understand misspelling. But Skywalker’s practically English.
I was in a hurry and hit the wrong keys. :-S
That’s a typo, not a spelling mistake. A spelling mistake is when you do it in manuscript.
Well, I have been really dazed and out of it and wrote the letters in the wrong order. That mostly happened right after they took my wisdom teeth out and I was still a little crazy from the drugs.
Again, definitely not a spelling mistake. That would be like expecting said misspelled Skywalker to spell Chu’unthor correctly in the middle of a podrace. Or anywhere, actually.
Hmmm… you’re probably right.
Have you read GP Ch54 yet!? Wowee. baulding living up to her reputation with a vengeance.
Poor Obi-Wan. :’-( Who would’ve thought that he’d end up… 0_0 I guess it might be partially true that brilliant people are unstable on some level. But it was… 0_0
Ohhh… I was in agony. It was AWFUL!
Yeah. Self-harming?! It was disturbing. I think that there should have been a warning to up the rating for the chapter at the top. 0_0
Disturbing?! Holp. Still… I don’t think it was remotely OOC!
Yes, and that’s the scariest part. 0_0 Though, I should say this: after TPM, if Obi-Wan was suicidal… Anakin was his poison of choice. 0_0
True. 😦
😦 I should really send you the dark lullaby I wrote about the two of them. It’s kind of creepy and… oooh. I just thought that since Palpacreepy is doing Morgan singing Mordred’s Lullaby (sort of) to Anakin, I should add something about how helpless Obi-Wan feels. (Because, really, in the end I think Obi-Wan was just caught in the crossfire–like Padme. Since he tried, but it was just too little too late and he really didn’t know WHAT to do. Poor Obi-Wan.)
You really should. Better yet you should post a few of those! And the John-and-Sherlock scene.
oooh, yess!!! I think I already posted the “How to Save a Life” with John and Sherlock, though…
Oh yes, so you have. Silly me.
😉 It’s okay. 🙂
BTW, Iris and I are sharing her fanfiction account now. 😉
Okay, hint taken, I’ll go look.
I haven’t posted anything yet. I’m still working on it. Trying to get my debut piece up to standard and all… since Iris has been boasting. *head keyboard*
Iris? I thought you wrote that part. 🙂
No… Nothing I’ve written has gone up on there yet. She was boasting about my talents. *sigh*
Well… they’re boastable.
You’re just saying that. *puts head in hands*
Now you’re fishing for compliments.
No, I’m not… I’m serious… 0_0
I’m not even going to answer that.
People are flattering me, I’m not sure I can handle this…
Erin: The sincerest form of flattery is imitation. I use your background on Obi-Wan. I use your Shendi language and culture. How much more obvious does this need to be?
I’m freaking mental. *sigh* It’s not my fault. :-S
But thanks anyway… 😛
You’re welcome. You know that is the usual response to a compliment? Not, “Oh, no, I’m not”?
…… I’m not normal.
😛
