Reasons for recommending Stories of Clone War Era Obi-Wan looking back upon happier times are few and far between and 'Lion creates one that is compelling, sensual and a bit angsty all at the same time. Ben relays the story of how he and Qui-Gon became lovers with such love in his voice that you can almost sense him wrapping himself in the happy memory and being transported back to that happier time.
Quote from the story "Yes and no. It happened so gradually -- falling in love, that is -- I can't really say when or how it happened. I was in love with him for a long time before we actually became lovers, though." Ben reached over and picked up one of Bail's boots, running his fingers over it as he spoke. "Qui-Gon's boots were definitely the catalyst for our first time together."
"I wish I could have seen you then," Bail said. "I can imagine you, young, beautiful and so very passionate."
Ben laughed quietly. "Young, yes. Passionate, too. By all the little gods, I was on fire for him."
"Tell me, Ben," Bail whispered. "Tell me the story."
