Ursa Major, Alcove D4 [all day]

[tatooine_doofus]

Luke was putting the last of his belongings into bags and boxes and trying not to be too upset about leaving Fandom forever tomorrow morning.

Outside his alcove, Artoo was selling copies of Fandom's Greatest Humiliations over the last two years for what he felt was a very reasonable price.

Whenever the melancholy threatened to overwhelm Luke, he'd look over at the little droid who'd begin to whistle "Doe, a Deer."

Artoo wasn't big on feeling sorry for yourself.

"And you better shoot straight and keep coming home, you hear me?" he murmured, holding on tightly.

"Won't be a problem," she promised, turning to kiss his cheek.

"And if Dad starts acting strangely," he whispered, trusting Jaina to fill in the details.

"I know," she assured him, nodding.

Luke leaned in to kiss her forehead. "The Force will be with you, Jaina," he said, blinking back tears.

"And with you," she said, smiling as she pulled away. "I'll see you later, Uncle Luke."

Luke gave her a little wave and turned back to his bed so she couldn't see the expression on his face.
