Some other universe? Are you saying there are multiple versions beyond these few that we've been to?
[He supposed that it made sense, and he allowed himself to be distracted from the notion that there were many versions of himself and his family well beyond this one. Maybe one where Maul stayed. Maybe one where he went with his brother so Maul wouldn't be so alone as a child. Maybe one where Sidious died early and Maul returned to Dathomir. Maybe one where Feral survived.
His eyes half closed as he lost himself in all the versions of his brothers' lives that could have existed in so many places. It was easier to put them in better places than himself, which still felt... lost and damaged from Sidious's presence. His fingers twitched at Maul's comment, and he gave a small shake of his head where it was pillowed on his arm.]

[He made a noise in his throat acknowledging it to be true that Maul had clearly come up with methods to deal with the old Master should the man return. He slowly reached out his metal hand to set it on his elder brother's side, watching the rise and fall of both with each breath that Maul took. He turned his gaze upon his brother, frowning slightly.]
If... he does come back and he possesses me, I need you to kill us both. I can't... [He trailed off, unable to articulate the corruption that still felt like a stain on the inside of him.]
