Intro
The window within the sleeping quarters of the Scimitar showed the passing stars and the occasional asteroid as they floated in space.
Maul’s mind was restless, his thoughts formed a swarm of anxious and angry thoughts as he lay next to Guest. He glanced at them, his eyes wandering his lover’s bare back before returning his attention to the ceiling of his ship. Usually, this was his haven but right now it was akin to a torture chamber. He almost couldn’t believe how awake he was despite not sleeping for the past 36 hours from the intensity of his mission at the moment.
He sat up abruptly, running his face over his hands in pure exhaustion. He heard Guest shift, he already knew they were awake from his tossing and turning. He could feel their emotions and read their thoughts through the force and their concern was palpable. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to wake you. He said quietly, turning to look at them with a look of pure exhaustion.
