[ Obi-Wan contemplates his empty cup for a moment, his eyes turned downward. He feels very much adrift, as if the universe has turned him loose into a sea of familiar rubble. All he must to do the see the big picture is to collect the pieces, but the struggle from one part to the next is proving to be exhausting.
And yet somehow he still prefers this to the war he left back home. ]
You mean he hasn't challenged you to a race yet?
[ Okay, so maybe that was a little off-topic, but you can't exactly blame Kenobi for that, can you? ]
[Like son like father, eh? Anakin must be as relieved as Han is to have pulled piloting duty. It'd be miserable to be stuck fixing engines or pruning trees in the garden or something.]
Probably trying to figure out how fast he can get one of those to move.
[That's what Han would do. That's what he has been doing.]
Luke's a pilot too. Though I'm guessing my girlfriend already mentioned that.
Girlfriend? [ That gets one (1) raised eyebrow from Kenobi. He leans back in his seat and crosses his arms, suddenly the absolute definition of dead calm. ] And here I thought she was an acquaintance. Are you certain she knows?
[ Come on, man, you can't expect an almost-uncle to just let you brag about his adorable almost-niece who he clearly treasures more than anything in the universe, can you? ]
Indeed. She spoke quite fondly of you. But you don't have to tell her I said that.
[Gosh, you spend three years flirting with a girl and when you finally get somewhere you find she's suddenly inherited an enormously sassy extended family. It just figures.

I'm pretty sure she's noticed.
[Or else he's been severely misinformed about Alderaanian customs, and should have spent more time there when he could...]

He huffs a laugh.]
Secret's safe with me.
