Can you write something vaderwan (but not emperor vader verse) where ter order 66, Vaderkin kidnaps obi-Wan and keeps him as a prisoner, and is basically fully ready to stockholm/gloat/try to turn/dubcon the hell out of him – and Obi-Wan just ignores him. Won’t give him the time of day, or answer any of his baiting with bantering back – and Vaderkin starts to realize that he may have lost something irreplaceable.
The Jedi’s back hit the wall hard enough to smack his head against
it, a sound crack resonating through the entire room as it impacted.
And yet, yet after blinking stars out of his eyes, Obi-Wan firmly
kept his eyes to the side.
“Damn it Obi-Wan, LOOK at me!” Anakin snarled, hands digging into
the others shoulders, his mech hand digging hard enough to bruise he
knew.
Except for a slight tensing, Obi-Wan made no outward reaction. He
never did, not even when Anakin hurt him.
He knew that his master wouldn’t be happy, knew that he would
reticent when captured and contained in the mansion that belonged to
Darth Vader, hand of the Emperor.
But he hadn’t expected him to stop responding to him at all and
never say a word to him. He hadn’t expected the man to become a
shadow of his former self that never spoke.
Anakin snarled before taking note of the smear of red against the
wall behind Obi-Wan, dragging the other forward against his chest to
check on the back of his head, running his fingers through the others
ginger hair to find the wound he had cracked open.
“Blasted Obi-Wan, stop this. Talk to me. Look at me.” He growled
quieter, pulling bacta of his belt to treat him.
He had started carrying a bacta tube on himself after the first month
of Obi-Wan capture when everyday ended with Obi-Wan bleeding or
bruised in some manner.
He didn’t mean to, not usually but Obi-Wan always managed to make
him mad, even without saying anything. This wasn’t what he wanted
when he had managed to subdue Obi-Wan on Mustafar, he hadn’t wanted
a shell of a man who never spoke and never looked at him.
It was just a ghost with Obi-Wan’s face.
“Damn it Obi-Wan…talk to me.” Anakin whispered, cupping the
back of the others still bloody head to tuck him against his
shoulder, burying his nose in the others hair to take in the familiar
scent. He caressed bloody strands of hair as the bacta worked on the
wound. “I can be gentle if you just…look at me?” He murmured.
Once again there was no reaction.
All Obi-Wan did was remain still, breathing against his black
clothes.
“Obi-Wan.” He whispered, a tinge of desperation entering his
voice.
Someone knocked on the door and Anakin pulled away with a snarl.
“Enter!” He growled, eyes glowing yellow as the door slid open to
reveal Appo. “Yes?”
“Sir, the Emperor is calling for you. He is requesting your
presence sir.”
“I…see.” Anakin grumbled, glancing at the Jedi by his side and
the smear of blood on the wall. “Tell him I’m on my way.”
Appo gave a salute then marched away.
“…I’ll be back once the Emperor has given me his orders
Obi-Wan. Eat something while I’m gone.” Anakin turned back to the
Jedi, cupping his chin and raising his head. Once again Obi-Wan
focused his eyes anywhere but on him and the blond growled a bit
before desperately reigning in his emotions, leaving in a swirl of
black robes and anger.

In the room Obi-Wan gave a shaky breath before slowly reaching up to
the back of his head and touching the sticky hair, wincing a bit.
‘Shower…I need a shower…’ He moved through the rooms, the
Force suppressor collar almost unnoticeable now with months of wear.
He could still access the Force, could feel it move around him and
the galaxy but could no longer utilize it. Any attempt left him dizzy
and confused.
He’d once almost fallen from the balcony when he attempted and only
the clone checking in on him grabbing him by his tunic had saved him
from splattering on the ground far below.
Obi-Wan still wasn’t sure if he was grateful or not.
He carefully undid his clothes and threw them in the hamper, touching
the red marks on his shoulder where Vader’s mech hand had grabbed
him, rubbing the marks carefully before sighing and stepping into the
shower, opting for the water instead of sonic.
Only then did he give a proper reaction, breath stuttering carefully
as he cried under the warm spray of the shower.

Asleep, that was the only time Obi-Wan responded to his touch.
Anakin knelt by the couch and continued slowly stroking the redhead’s
cheek, smiling when he leaned into the touch, subconsciously seeking
more of it.
This was the only time he got to see the softer and needier side of
Obi-Wan anymore.
Not the unwilling glances to the side and the inaction when Anakin
hurt him.
When Obi-Wan wasn’t aware.
The Sith gritted his teeth at that thought, hand stilling.
He thought that by sparing Obi-Wan, he could keep at least the other
man in his life. But it seemed in trying to save those he loved the
most…he had lost it all.
