starwars100Title:Good Grooming
Prompt:034a: Pet
Author:temve
Rating:PG
Characters:Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Master Tyvokka
Pairing:Qui-Gon Jinn & Obi-Wan Kenobi (I see this one as pre-slash but YMMV)
Star Wars Media Property:Prequels
Word count:300
Warnings/Spoilers: none
Summary: Pet Rescue for Jedi…
“Here. Throw that on it, give it a shot of the sedative if it gets too uppity, and make sure it’s decently groomed. Coupla extra strokes of the brush can get us a couple hundred extra. And this one looks like he’s rolling in dough, from the video comms. If you know what I mean.”
”Sure, boss.”
“No ya don’t. He has one already. Likely looking for a companion for it, and anyone who can afford to keep two of these in such nice shape is definitely seriously rich.”
”Oh.” A thoughtful pause. “Do you think he’s planning to breed them?”
Bergir snorted. “You don’t know anything about these critters, do you?” He leveled a pitying gaze at his employee. “The other one is also a male, you bunga. You can tell by their facial features. Anyway, go get the display collar on it, give it as much of a brushing as it’ll tolerate, and then make yourself scarce while I talk to the customer, will ya?”
”Sure, boss.”

Obi-Wan straightened his braid for the fourth time in as many minutes, watching anxiously as their transport approached the capital city’s upscale shopping district. Master Tyvokka had reassured him that good grooming and obedience was ninety-nine per cent of the role, and that Padawan Kenobi was certainly capable of displaying those characteristics in spades.
Which - yes, he had been undercover before.
He had not been undercover wearing nothing but an ornate collar, posing as the pet of a Wookiee Jedi confidently playing the part of the affluent collector of exotic creatures.
He had carefully not allowed himself to imagine what they would, hopefully, find behind those bejeweled doors.
They were here on a rescue mission. They were Jedi.
”Ready to find Master Jinn, Padawan Kenobi?”
”Yes, Master.”
