"I don't want you to put yourself at risk. If just like to not involve them if possible." Ideally not at all but that was not going to happen with Obi-Wan already being involved.
"I don't want validation." He washed understanding. Palpatine offered it, even if something that had learned to be very very quiet in his mind was uneasy about it.
"I just can't. Not being attached to people. My men - they are all such unique people but you have to get to know them to see it, most like to be seen as a group at first. Obi-Wan and I can almost read each other's thoughts at times." Something that drove others mad - battle planning with Kenobi-and-Skywalker often meant getting had sentences at best. "I want to do well for them. I don't see it being Dark." It had taken him to Dark places, sure. But it didn't have to.
