[ He's tempted to reach out with his hand, through the Force, and find some point of connection to settle Anakin-
No. At this point it'd be making contact to settle himself. So much of this world being strange isn't that unfamiliar, many planets have strange governments and customs, systems that are entirely foreign to him but...someone he knows as well as he knows himself- or someone he thought he'd known that well suddenly standing in front of him and decrying him for actions he has not yet taken, but will?
For Anakin of all people to look at him with such distrust, such loathing?
As he cannot reach out, Obi-Wan's arms go around his own ribs instead, a self soothing gesture he hasn't made use of in...he's forgotten how long. ]
You've grown your hair out, for one. [ Because coping with the obvious and remarking upon it is easier than everything he does not know. ]
