"If Bail agrees to leave me alone with a datapad", Ferus answered, tone still quiet despite what would have been a lighter string of words. But he felt confident and didn't hesitate over the response. He was already running data through his mind, twisting and turning the code he'd have to navigate, systems he'd have to slice into.
He had just said the other day that he'd miss slicing. While he took no real pleasure in the idea now, for the reasons he'd have to do it and the traces he knew he'd unfortunately have to leave, at least it would be doing something that he knew he was good at. It would be helping, in another way.
Even if that was likely enough to be the last time he'd do it. Another link to Roan that he'd sever.
"I can connect you to other Kenobis, distant relatives. Plant others in the Outer Rim. Leave little reason to trace you back to Coruscant." He almost said that he'd rather give Obi-Wan a new last name altogether, but there would be no benefit to that. It was no longer an option. "And if I find anything on you I can probably get rid of it. Or at least anything that would lead people here."

Yet another step in that complete exile.
