Did he have enough guts left to lurch? He doubted it but it felt like they jerking around to tie themselves into some impossible knot while the dragon's jaws snapped and his head battered at Vader's heart.
No.
No.
No.
It's not quite screamed in the Force. But it's not far from it.
But he does move, sitting up to take each of their faces in a hand. Gently for a moment, before his touch get just a tad firmer. Vader looked both of them in the face, making eye contact between them.
"He lies. He will never share power. Never." It's snapped. "He'll attempt to use you against each other, he'll be afraid of you. Of your bond and of your strength. Do. Not. Let. Him. He's done it before. Successfully." He doesn't mean, mentally kicks himself and jerks his head back to them, but he definitely looked in Obi-Wan's direction, walls and space be damned. He knew where he was. "I suspect but I cannot prove, that he has the ability to influence the visions of other Force Users. To twist what they see so they cannot completely read their visions. He did that, I believe with Padmé and I. He attempted to assassinate Obi-Wan many times. He." Vader's muscles pulled at his face, twisting the scar tissue and pulling it painfully tight in places. "He knew I'd never let Obi-Wan go. Never let go of him. Kirff whatever my master said, Obi-Wan is mine. He will try to do the same to you." It's a slip he hasn't made in over a decade, speaking more like Anakin Skywalker than Darth Vader. Palpatine hadn't been wrong in how the hooks of the past effected him.
"Trust in each other, never him. The Force bound you to one another. Trust in the Force."
