Summary
Jango and Obi-Wan hijack a freighter and go on a galactic road trip to kill a man.or;
Montross is a little cleverer on Korda VI. Jango ends up tossed into the cargo hold of 'The Stryker', a slaver freighter taking him to parts unknown and well out of Montross's way. Melida/Daan, weakened by its infighting and the Young suffering catastrophic losses, are raided by opportunistic slavers, resulting in Obi-Wan captured as a prize to be sold to a 'special' client - Force sensitive slaves are, after all, valuable cargo (and there is a dark shadow in the galaxy always on the look out for forgotten, powerful Force sensitives).
By sheer luck - or maybe the Force - they're locked in cages beside each other. They plan, they escape... and the future shifts.AO3 Summary

Thank you so much for writing this, it's absolutely amazing! I love Obi and Jango relying on each other, and Jaster and Feemor in pursuit. You do a really good job of balancing the facts that they are competent, and in their culture, adults or nearly adults with the fact that they are still children who are lonely and need help. The fact that Obi hasn't come clean about being a Jedi is KILLING ME that CANNOT go well. Aaaaahhhh!! I can't wait to see what happens next!
I am absolutely loving this story. Everything from the characterization to the descriptions and the interpersonal relationships is so well crafted.I love watching the characters slowly start to trust each other more. Jango and Obi-Wan's friendship in particular is delightful to read.
Though my favorite character in this might just be 2-1B. Their delightful attitude combined with their awful history makes me both feel bad for and adore them. I've wondered if their dedication to the kids health is because these are the first patients that they're actually allowed to help. It's never been something I've thought of before but it would make sense if droids processed trauma in their own way too.
I don't know why but every time Obi-Wan hisses or growls it cracks me up. It also makes a bit of sense considering that he was raised with other species during his formative years who might have used similar verbalizations to communicate. It's an aspect of Jedi culture I never thought much about before but that this fic has made me interested in.
The lack of knowledge that the Jedi council has regarding Obi-Wan's actual situation is stressing me out but I am patiently awaiting when those revelations come out.
Thanks again for writing this story, it's incredibly enjoyable to read.
