Summary
Hawke watches the broken mage before her. Often she sees glimpses of who he was before he offered himself as a moral vessel for the spirit he once called friend. There was much laughter in his memories that surfaced between glances, a humour that shielded the hurt and fear and searing pain that ate at his soul. It hid the little boy once dragged from his mother’s skirts. Her brows knit together when he finds the strength to look at her once more.
“But I’m... still a man, Hawke,” comes the weathered confession as carefully laid bricks of fortification and refusal begin to waver. “You can’t tease me like this...” He swallows the thickness in his throat, the swell forming, choking him of his thoughts and his speech. “I can’t resist forever.”
A re-imagining of the confession after Questioning Beliefs. Dialogue is relatively untouched from the cutscene. Please note the Hawke in this story is asexual, therefore there will be no sexual intimacy.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world....--"The Second Coming" by W.B. Yeats

Ever since his disastrous attempt to leave Ryloth with Hera nearly ten years ago, Kanan has kept himself out of politics. He prides himself on the neutrality he's achieved with his smuggling company and the relationships he’s built with his fellow crew members, two damaged teens and Hera's old droid. But when an encounter with a dangerous foe upsets the delicate balance he has formed with his crew, he is forced to rethink his beliefs—for all their sakes.
Or; Kanan, in the past almost ten years since he and Hera have been apart, has somehow adopted two kids and started a smuggling syndicate plus renounced the Force.
