"We'd appreciate whatever you can give us. It's hard to move the world while you're standing on the edge."

Permalink

"A familiar feeling."

(Her son chooses that moment to toddle over closer to Luc', staring at her intently.)

Permalink

"Hello?" she says to the boy.

Permalink

He considers this. "Hello," he says, solemnly.

His mother smiles again. "Sorry - Jacen likes your alts quite a bit. I can have Luke hold him, if he's bothering you..."

Permalink

"Ah, it's- fine? I don't have much experience with children."

Permalink

"Jacen tends to like just sitting quietly, fortunately. Fairly easy to entertain, especially next to this one." She bounces Jaina - who is presently occupied with trying to undo her mother's braids - demonstratively.

Permalink

(Wyld leans over, making faces at Jacen, and completely fails to get any of his attention.)

Permalink

"That's very cooperative of you," she says to him. "Is that why you like us, we also sit quietly?"

Permalink

"Ah," he says, nodding and then squinting suspiciously at Wyld. "...Loud Granny."

Permalink

Luc' sporfles.

Permalink

"Hey!" Wyld says (loudly), then giggles.

Permalink

"He's," laugh, "he's got you there."

Permalink

"Not a Granny."

Permalink

"Close enough, apparently."

Permalink

She laughs, then, to Jacen: "Can your Granny do this?" She stands...

Permalink

And turns into a tiger.

Permalink

Wow that is so suspicious. He squints.

"...Weird Granny."

Permalink

"Not Cat Granny?"

Permalink

Jaina looks up, notices the giant kitty, and promptly abandons her mother for giant kitty pats. "Cat Granny!" she says, happily, while Jacen makes a face at her.

"Weird Granny," he repeats, stubbornly.

Permalink

Wyld laughs, purring.

Permalink

"Secretly, I agree with you," she stage-whispers to Jacen. "She is weird."

Permalink

Wyld snickers, tilting her head so Jaina can scratch her ear better.

Permalink

Jacen nods and climbs up on the couch beside Luc', sitting and looking around a bit but apparently done with all this nonsense.

Permalink

And, with the children sufficiently entertained, Wyld returns to talking to Luke and Leia (mostly Leia, though Luke promises his help as an individual Jedi) about world problems and potential ways of solving them.

Permalink

Luc' contributes some clarifying details where needed and fills in gaps about the world-at-large.
