Recs and Reviews

what happens tomorrow? by mali wane. qui/obi, nc-17, sw:tpm, angst, sentimentality. i have to rec this one with great hesitation. i have strong issues with characterization of any jedi as as silly, childish, or mopey as qui and obi often are, and qui is particularly weak and foolish in this one. if you accept that premise, however, i think this story is important, and even powerful, at its center. it's a story about an obi-wan who is serene and calm and totally determined and confident about what he wants on the day of his knighting, who comes to qui-gon to take it, speaking no words, and discovers that qui-gon isn't as perfect as he has believes. he becomes angry--possibly too angry, and with some poor dialogue--but i think his anger is believable. he's perfectionist, a man of principles, even among the jedi. there are indubitably outward flaws, but i think deep down this characterization is insightful.[1]
