"They've been in the bathroom for some time." Kenobi seemed to have developed a nervous tick by bouncing his leg up and down.

"So?" Qui-Gon was still trying to figure out what it was that was bothering Kenobi.

"So… nothing. Nothing." He'd put on a pseudo-calm voice. Qui-Gon raised his eyebrows.

"Nothing?"

"Nothing." Kenobi confirmed.

"Then why are you so nervous? Remember, I know you Kenobi. You're definitely nervous. Don't even try to deny it."

Kenobi squirmed uncomfortably. "You know I've forgotten how much of an arse you were." He told Qui-Gon irritably. Qui-Gon just chuckled, mildly amused.

"But it's nothing. Just that I know myself, and how I react to things, and I might be reacting… badly to this… thing."

"How so?"

"I said it's nothing. Nothing you need to worry about anyway." It was most definitely something that Qui-Gon should have been worrying about, but Kenobi really didn't want to have to have that conversation with him.
