[Shockingly, Maul was going to try to talk to the Jedi first. He's trying not to go and do anything impulsive.]
But if he will not listen to reason, we will need to force a confession out of him and record it on a video. I won't sit around and let myself be made into an eternal scapegoat.
[Which seemed to mean to him that Anakin was going to have to go up against the other Dark Side users sooner than later. There was going to have to be a hierarchy.]
He is. [Maul sighs.] He is a fool who is so blind he can't see where the path is taking him.
[The Sith Lord can see it though. He sees it far too clearly.]
If we must attack him, I cannot harm him without consequence to myself. [He really needs to work on finding a way to break this curse. It is becoming rather bothersome.] He is skilled with a lightsaber and we must work fast to overwhelm him so that he doesn't kill either of us in return. Our best course of action would be a surprise blitz attack. I shall draw him out, distract him, and have you knock him out.
[It had worked well the first time they fought Obi-Wan, so why mess with a good plan?]
Why don't you push him to the Dark Side fully, brother? His antics will take the heat off of you, especially if he's acting out and killing randomly.
[It wasn't ideal, and they were likely to come into conflict since that seemed a Sith basis of operation. Still, it would peel Kenobi away as well, leaving his brother to really dig in.]
He won't be the first or last person I've punched unconscious. Let me be the aggressor, brother, so you don't bring harm to yourself.
I won't need to do much if I decide to push him. He's practically there already.
[Maul wondered for a brief moment what Obi-Wan thought of his apprentice right now and then wondered why Obi-Wan had come into his mind at all. He shook his head and dismissed the thought.]
Very well. [He was grateful his brother was already 100% on board with this idea. Even if everyone else saw him as only a murderous monster, Savage was one of those that knew differently.] Give me a few hours. If he refuses to listen to reason, we shall go hunt him down.
He doesn't seem to be structured enough to be a rival to your power. He's in denial enough to fall without issue.
[Anakin was excellent with a lightsaber and as a Force user, but the human hardly seemed to care about power. It was more like a wounded rancor slashing and howling at anything that came too close at this point.
He grunted softly at the instructions. A few hours meant he could prepare and be at the ready should his brother need him.]
I will await your call then, brother. We should be prepared to overwhelm his omen as well, yes?
Very true. I shall consider it as a possible plan.
[Savage had a good point. If Anakin became the target of everyone's ire, that would definitely take the heat off of Maul and anything else he might be planning.]
If he has it out, yes. I'm sure Venge and Brute will be able to handle whatever he has.
I ended up on that boat adventure with him and Kenobi's body was there. He yelled a bunch about not being responsible. I believe Kenobi would be good avenue to push him if you choose to do so.
[He hadn't enjoyed that trip down the River of Regret. Only the one with Maul had seemed to be productive, and he liked to think it had brought them closer.]
[That just seemed to prove his brother's opinion that the Jedi were a bunch of sentimental idiots, right? It wasn't as if the Sith were much better, but at least they didn't tout silliness about peace while wielding a weapon.
Savage was growing rather fond of Brute, and Brute was definitely fond of Maul. There was a lot of gentle headbutting for pets.
He nodded his head, stepping in to knock their foreheads lightly together.]

Give me an hour or so. I will let you know our course of action by then.

Of course, brother. I am at your disposal always.
