As Anakin predicted, the peace negotiations were rather boring. But it seemed that the younger Obi-Wan was rather bored as well, which interested Anakin.

"So," Anakin whispered to him in the middle of the meeting, "You think this is boring?"

"Yeah. You don't?"

"Oh I think it's really boring too, it's just that your older self seems to think it's rather interesting."

It was true. Obi-Wan the senior seemed to be having fun, giving a grand speech about why peace on the planet would be for the best. Younger Obi-Wan seemed disappointed with himself.

"Trust me," He said to Anakin, "I hate negotiations just as much as the other Padawans do." Anakin grinned. "You know, I think I might kind of like you now." He whispered back at Obi-Wan.

For whatever reason, Obi-Wan's ears turned ever so slightly red at that.
