No. But I'm getting older. And I won't be here forever.

You'll outlive me.

[He's already dead in Luke's time and that's not long enough for Obi-Wan to have died of old age.]

Oh, Anakin.

That's not true.

What do you mean?

[ obi-wan shakes his head. ]

It just means that is unlikely.

But you're the strongest person I know. No one's beating you unless you left them win.

[And Anakin is Anakin, the same coward he's always been.]

You never know, Anakin. The world has changed.

But you haven't.

[At least not in any way that truly matters. At his core he is still the same Jedi he's always been.]

I have changed.

[He pulls back slightly, but keeps his hands on Obi-Wan.]

You still found your way back.

[He didn't take that from him as well.]

Yes.

But I didn't do it alone. No one can do it alone.

[He looks off to the side and mumbles.]

That's not what you've been saying.

Don't be obtuse, Anakin. You've known quite well what I've been saying. You just don't like to hear it.

There's a difference between asking people for help and needing them to be around you at all times for your own sake.

I never said that. [Luke had accused him of something similar, but it hurt more to hear from someone who had seem him struggle up close.

While he knew that for himself, he tried to only take what was offered. Maybe he was worse at this than he'd thought.]

I didn't say you had to be here.
