Plo Koon: One day? I already am a father.

Mace: That's a clone commander you picked up from Kamino.

ABILITIES  MEME        @buirr​​  sent:    [ TEN ]  for receiver to collapse in sender’s arms after using their abilities. 

    HE  HAD  FELT  IT  CREEPING  UP  ON  HIM .      a  familiar  feeling  from  the  earlier  days ,    when  he  was  still  so  new  to  this .      learning  his  strengths ,    weaknesses ,    and  limits .      exhaustion .      he’d  gotten  better ,    stronger ,    and  more  resilient  in  the  near  ten  years  since  he  first  started  down  this  path .      no  one  could  last  forever ,    though .      not  even  him .      something  he  struggled  to  admit .      when  others  lives  were  at  stake  Luke  knew  he  had  to  keep  going .      Din  and  Grogu  were  right  there  and  he  could  feel  the  fright  coming  from  the  child .      the  Jedi’s  limbs  trembled  though  as  he  grabbed  the  last  TIE  from  the  sky ,    boots  skidding  across  the  ground  as  the  force  of  its  resistance  drug  him  a  few  inches  before  it  relented  and  came  wailing  down  to  the  earth .      a  gasp  left  him  as  he  released  his  hold         ---         and  his  body  surprised  him  as  he  went  down  with  it .      but  he  didn’t  hit  the  ground .      arms  of  beskar  were  there  to  catch  him .      Luke’s  chest  was  tight  as  sweat  glistened  off  his  temples ,    gloved  hand  curling  around  a  vambrace  as  he  forced  himself  to  take  slow ,    even  breaths .        ❝      ------    i’m  okay .      ❞

Comet: No, not a father figure. The father figure.

Plo: Excuse me?

Comet: There's no one else in my life I can tell really fits the role. You have no competition. You're the father figure in my life, and I'm pretty sure everyone else in the battalion feels the same.

Plo: ...

Comet: ...

Plo: Yes, I looked it over, nice work.

Sinker: Good. Thanks, Dad.

Boost:...

Comet:...

Wolffe:...

Sinker: Why is everyone is staring at me?

Boost: You just called the General 'Dad'. You said, 'Thanks, Dad'

Sinker: What? No, I didn't I said 'Thanks General'

Plo: smiling Do you see me as a father?

Sinker: No. If anything, I see you as a bother figure 'cause you're always bothering me.

Wolffe: Hey! Show your father some respect.

Sinker: I didn't call him Dad.

Plo: I take it as a compliment, my son.

Comet: It's not a big deal, I called my ex 'mom' once.

Wolffe: You've never had a girlfriend.

Comet: I have a life outside this battalion, commander.

Sinker: Guys, jump on that. Comet has psycho-sexual issues.

Comet: Old news. But you calling Plo 'daddy'

Sinker: Hey, 'daddy' is not on the table here.

Comet: But you did call him 'dad' dude.

Sinker: You shut up, you've done nothing but lie since you got here.

Comet: Alright, alright, I was lying about the girlfriend, but that other thing did happen.

Sinker: So you admit it was a lie, all according to plan.

Plo: I believe you.

Sinker: Thank you.

Plo: ...son

Sinker:...

Plo: You wanna talk about it later, over a cup of tea in my office.

    ARTOO  BEEPED  GRUMPILY  AS  LUKE  USED  him  as  a  stand ,    one  gloved  hand  planted  on  the  dome  of  the  droid  as  he  balanced  himself  above  him .      rocks  floated  around  the  pair  and  further  unsettled  the  droid  who ,    as  he  stated ,    was  tired  of  being  dropped ,    whacked ,    and  magicked  away .      Luke  had  shook  his  head  with  a  bemused  grin  and  promised  him  none  of  that  would  happen .      the  droid  was  barely  under  any  strain  as  the  Jedi  used  the  Force  to  hold  himself  and  center  himself ,    letting  it  flow  through  him ,    feeling  it  in  its  entirely .

    Grogu  was  off  having  some  time  with  his  father ,    a  break  from  his  studies  to  unwind  and  relax  or  do  whatever  the  Mandalorian  had  planned .      Luke  chose  to  use  that  time  for  his  own  routines .      down  to  the  sleeveless  undershirt  he  wore  under  his  tunics ,    the  humidity  of  Yavin - 4  clung  to  his  arms  and  temples  yet  went  ignored  as  he  concentrated .      the  rocks  of  various  sizes  formed  three  loose  rings  that  rotated  at  differing  degrees .  

    he  was  meditating ,    his  mind  and  heart  calm  and  at  peace ,    his  awareness  stretched  across  the  planet .      every  living  thing  breathed  and  he  felt  it ,    the  cycle  of  life  and  death ,    rot  and  decay  feeding  new  life ,    the  harmony  in  which  all  lived  in ,     he  could  feel  it .      he  focused  on  it  .  .  .    perhaps  a  little  too  hard .      so  much  of  his  attention  away ,    Luke  missed  his  pupil  and  the  Mandalorian  returning .  

    Artoo’s  beep  in  greeting  had  him  opening  his  eyes  out  of  surprise ,    the  rocks  faltering  in  the  air  before  he  caught  them  again  and  lowered  them  and  himself  back  to  the  ground .      giving  the  droid  a  fond  pat  as  he  pulled  his  legs  to  him  and  crossed  them ,    Luke  smiled  at  the  pair .        ❝      how  long  have  you  been  standing  there ?      ❞

@buirr​​  sent :    ❝  i’m not here to ask you for anything.  i just wanted to make sure you’re okay.  ❞
