Who: Anakin Skywalker
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Paisley
When: Right meow
There are a lot of questions and interests about other worlds lately. I have one question that I'm interested in right now. [ Alright, Ankain you can do this. Forget about that scolding Obi-Wan voice in your head telling you that the future is always changing. ] Does your universe-- do you believe in fate?
[ Oh, great. It sounds like a load of bantha dung when he actually hears it out loud. Awkwardly: ]
Destiny.
[ That doesn't help, which is fine. It's fine. It goes against the Jedi teachings and feels wrong just saying it. Nevermind that things are different with each universe, so it can't be really applicable, right?
Whatever, roll with it.
He adds, without pause, a completely unnecessary definition. ]
That certain things needs to happen in the future.

Pleasure.

far from taking offense, however — really? this is anakin skywalker? — aphra prepares a little dig.
curiously, ] I have to say, I don't know what I expected from Luke's father.

Because he didn't exactly end things well with Luke before he left. And now this, this is happening. ]
How do you know Luke?

she trails off as she decides how to play it. anakin gives her the idea, and as much as the idea of it makes her roll her eyes ( she would literally never — ) ]
I think I'll save that awkwardness for Luke. No offense, but I haven't even talked to my dad. You know how that goes.
I can tell you that I'm an archaeologist, and he's — him. So we have dovetailing interests. Unfortunately, this cyborg abomination was tracking him down. Long story short, memorable first impressions were had.

disconnect.
But I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree, Skydad. I'll see you around.
