The Scent of Lavender

[hadthehighground]

Who: Obi-Wan Kenobi & You
What: Obi-Wan got a reward! With a very distinct smell.
When: Day 17
Where: Residential Area
Warnings: None atm.

The whole testing experience had been rather trying, and it wasn't just the test either. Anakin was getting more difficult to deal with, and his presence only seemed to make it worse. Despite the Sith Lord being sent to... wherever it was he want, his demeanor had not improved in the slightest. 

Obi-Wan knew he was the main target of Anakin's rage, and someone else had gotten hurt trying to help him. 

Thus after the testing was done, the Jedi decided to hole himself away in his room again. The man rarely being seen for a week aside for coming out to eat or use the fresher. And that was typically done when he knew Anakin, and probably most everyone else, was asleep. He spent the time in his room meditating for the most part. Rarely even logging into the network. 

However, around the 15th or so, some might catch a whiff of a different smell. One that some might recognize as lavender.

Obi-Wan had discovered he's been gifted with a host of cleaning supplies, for personal hygiene and otherwise. He decided to first try some of the personal items. Thus there would be hints of lavender lingering in the men's bathroom due to the Jedi's late night excursions. Using the lavender shampoo, soap, even toothpaste. 

However, on the 17th he will be seen in the common areas again at a decent hour. Though before he's seen, anyone coming into the room he's in will be hit with a wall of lavender odor that is exceptionally strong. Yep, he's back to cleaning, and using lavender scented products. Wiping down surfaces with cleaning solution, the bleach if its especially nasty, and so forth. It's really handy having these, but it seems there is a price to pay in one's nose being assaulted.

The whole place stank!

Anakin was drawn out of his room at an unusual time for him by the mere fact that this smell was creeping into his room and was disturbing his nap meditation.

Understandably irritated, he stepped through what was considered the living area only to spot a rather familiar face. And he made a face in return, adding an expression of disgust to his usual glare.

"You STINK, Jedi." he announced with a snarl. At least he didn't outright attack.

Unfortunately, Wesley's sleep schedule is not consistent. Mostly because, well, that would require him to get a healthy amount of sleep at night. Normally he spends this time brooding in his quarters, but tonight, he feels the need for mental occupation.

So tonight, when Obi-Wan comes out to fetch food, he finds Wesley seated at one of the tables, with a peculiar assortment of playing cards- of mismatched decks and sizes, all face-up- laid out in front of him.

He's contemplating them deeply, but he glances up at Obi-Wan as he enters. "Oh, sorry. I can move these if they're in the way."

Aerith had noticed the loss of the older man, but she's smart enough to comment on it. Even though she's not afraid of the one called Anakin, she doesn't want to cause any trouble for the rest of the people with them. And while sleeping in their rooms is safest for everyone, she doesn't really like the fact that Obi-Wan has all but locked himself into his room to avoid Anakin. On the 17th day of their captivity, she walks into the common rooms and sees him. She can't help but smile as she walks closer to his table. Yes, the smell of lavender—something she's very well acquainted with—is everywhere and has been for a while now. And it gets stronger the more she moves towards him. "I take it that you got some gift from LACUNA? In the lavender variety?"

Yuna coughed when the strong scent of lavender filled her nose. She had nothing against flowers but it had felt as if a field of lavender had slapped her in the face. It stung her nose and she wanted nothing more than to be rid of the scent.

"Hello?" She followed it to Obi-Wan. Yuna knew him, had seen him around at least, but she hadn't spoken to him. He had nearly disappeared after the testing and she wasn't sure if something had happened to him. It was good to see that he was safe but the aroma was a little too much to ignore.

"What is that smell?"

Yuna was trying to shard not to insult it but it was awful.
