A Matter of Perspective is a Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan story by Rushlight. It was first published in the zine Living Force volume 1 in August 2000.

Summary: Qui and Obi spend the night before their intended execution discovering what is truly important to them.

Recs and Reviews

While not as overtly sexual as some of my other recommendations, and, indeed, not nearly as much as some of Rushlight's other stories, this one always ends up touching me deeply on every reread. First published in the first Living Force zine, this story is a simple discovery of a love that may be almost too late. Vivid, emotionally intense, and all the better for the ambiguous ending.[1]

This is an amazing oneshot where Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon confess their feelings while facing an unknown future. It’s almost poetic with how well written it is and of course it is great to see the obi/qui relationship unfold.[2]
