Reasons for recommending: This might just be the first humour story I read in this fandom that was funny without being ridiculous "ha-ha" funny. Dorky, considerate Obi-Wan and exasperated but amused Qui-Gon at their best. Definitely a light and fun read. And I guess I do feel slightly obligated to recommend something by Cassia, since she was one of those popular favourites. =P

"W-well," Obi-Wan didn't know how in the world to say this. "I, that is, I didn't want to

interrupt you, but they insisted I call, or they were going to send for you..."

Qui-Gon shook his head, the Governors were stirring impatiently and the 17-year-old on the other

end of the comlink wasn't making sense. "Who insisted? Obi-Wan I'm very busy..."

"The police Master," Obi-Wan mumbled it quickly and it took a moment for the older Jedi to make

out what he had said. "I've been arrested for vehicle theft and-and spice possession," Obi-Wan

plunged uncertainly ahead, realizing only afterwards that there was probably a better way to

have broken the news.

"YOU WHAT?" Qui-Gon forgot for a moment that he had an audience. Quickly regaining control of

himself he took several deep breaths, ignoring the blatant stares of the three Governors and

their staff.

"But I'm not guilty!" Obi-Wan quickly added. "It's all just a big mistake..." his voice trailed

off miserably.
