[ His voice softens. His gaze cuts down, away. Cal can have no idea how significant that information is, and Obi-Wan will not tell him. Not if he has a choice. ]
[ He relaxes, shoulders lowering. He's still not sure if he did the right thing, telling Anakin, but at least Obi-wan would've made the same decision. ]
It wasn't easy for him to hear. Was everything okay, when you saw him?
A fair few. Although I have the impression they simply like him. Anakin has always been good with younglings.
[ He glances away after he says this, the words catching up with what he had seen on the holo before coming here. But... he stands by the sentiment. His joy and fear over being a father, Obi-Wan's lived experience with Anakin, are both incongruous with what he has seen Vader do.
Looking back to the screen he slides neatly into another topic: ]
By the way, I had the thought that perhaps we should stick together. Of course I understand you have been on your own for some time and may not want the company, but the offer stands.
[ The complete irony of Cal and Obi-wan both being aware of Padme and her pregnancy, but neither being aware that the other is aware. Anyway... ]
Really?
[ He looks a little caught off guard by the offer, because yeah, he has been on his own. For a long time. But it quickly morphs into a smile, almost puppy-like in its eagerness. ]
I couldn't begin to tell you. I still cannot comprehend how this entire world is located inside of a train car without it being some manner of illusion, and yet here we are.
[ He pulls at his beard for a moment, then shakes his head — there just isn't enough information to try and hazard any further guesses than the ones he has already put forth. With a smile and an open palmed gesture: ]

Hopefully that didn't last too long.
I wanted to let you know I met another Jedi here. Anakin Skywalker.

[ More importantly... ]
It seems like he came from before us. Before the Purge.

I have come to the same conclusion.
no subject
I... told him what happened. He wanted to know.
[ Please don't yell at him, Obi-wan... ]

It's alright, Cal.
I wouldn't have been able to keep it a secret from him if I wanted to.

[ He's Worried about him. ]

Actually, he had gathered a following of Korogu. They seemed quite taken with him.
no subject
Oh. That's... good? I guess he managed to collect a lot of those seeds.

Yeah, I'd like that. Thank you, Master Kenobi.

Wonderful. We've set up camp here for the time being, if you'd like to join us.
Did you know that Happy Home application creates an entire dwelling? It's amazing technology.
no subject
So that's what that does?
Wait, how does it create an entire dwelling?

no subject
Actually, about these train cars—I think they are like entire worlds. At least, everything in them feels that way.

If this trend continues I imagine caution would serve us well in the coming days.

Patience will give us the answers we need.
no subject
Yes, Master Kenobi.
[ It's only slightly impudent. Definitely nowhere near Anakin's level, but baby steps. ]
I'll come find the camp later. See you then?
no subject
[ And with that he ends the feed. ]
