[Savage staggered out from behind the sarcophagus, and one end of his saberstaff was lit. He was breathing hard, his eyes wild and glowing, and he stared at Obi-Wan for a long moment as if trying to decide to attack or not.
There was the distinct smell of something burning not far away, but the mist covered the fence he had attacked and lit on fire.]
You! [He leaned on the sarcophagus, shaking his horned head as if to remove the cobwebs from them. He was pale and shaky.] Next time, I'll get him. He keeps laughing.
[ obi-wan had a modicum of doubt because this was deerington but now that he's finally arrived, there is a whiff of anyone's presence, much less palpatine's. unless palpatine can mask his living signature completely (which is a terrifying thought to consider), obi-wan is going to chalk this up to a lack of sleep. ]
[He bellowed and moved in front of the sarcophagus as if proving he was guarding it. He very nearly thought it a good idea to let Maul out, to help defend his position.]
[At least his saberstaff was at his belt and not in hand. He seemed more willing to fall back on hand-to-hand if he did decide to charge. His head swung around, tilting as if he listening for that laughter which haunted him.]
I won't fail again! I can't... I've failed so many times before. Every master I've failed....
[Savage growled, but he was either too sleep deprived to realize he had his saberstaff or he was wise enough to realize wielding it as he was probably would end with him cutting off one of his own body parts.
[He snorted and moved away from the sarcophagus to cover the distance between them. He had longer reach, but against a skilled fighter, that had limitations. He blinked his eyes rapidly to focus them and then shot out a quick jab to Obi-Wan's chest while the other arm swung up and around to try to smash against the side of the human's head.]

One, two, three... [He might be counting his fingers. Then went silent again.] It doesn't matter. You need to hide. He's coming.

Savage. No one is there.
Here, I got you something.
no subject
He is. I saw him!
[He eyed Obi-Wan suspiciously.]
I don't want anything. Just to kill that Sith.
no subject
Well, you can't do that and protect Maul at the same time.

[ obi-wan takes the yelling without missing a beat. ]
But you need rest. A stiff wind could topple you over at this rate.
no subject
[He was very serious about this staying until literal collapse scenario. He snorted from his nose again, then growled.]
I cannot rest when he is out there, waiting for an opportunity to steal my brother way. I will not allow it!
no subject
He is not here and you're going to fail in your duty if you don't pace yourself.<
no subject
I won't fail again! I can't... I've failed so many times before. Every master I've failed....
no subject
You will not fail again if you take care of yourself.

[He set a hand on the sarcophagus to assure himself to that it was still there, that his brother was safe if imprisoned.]

Are you working with him? Did he get to you? If you're his agent, I will kill you.
no subject
I'm sure you will. But no, I'm here to test your limits.

So, he raised his fists.]
Fine. I'll punch you in the ground.
no subject
Well? Get on with it.
