They always will.

Brin will trust that about her.

"You'll have to put some effort in too, lovely."

"I'll do what I can. But I don't think I could have blown up half the Academy."

Kiss! "That's what training will be for."

"I suppose. Not sure I want to be able to explode buildings, though."

"You'll be dangerous in another way." 

"Perhaps like a blade in the dark..."

"That sounds more like me."

Kiss! "It does. My pretty blade."

"And I'm not usually the blowing up buildings kind either..."

"Only when you get angry."

 - Kiss.

"I wasn't angry. I was scared."

"I'm sorry."

"Not your fault."

"You shouldn't have to have been scared, though."

Snuggle. "I was - really serious, when I said I'd rather just kill myself than be forced to fight you."

"I don't want that to happen. Ever."

"You said."

"That's - why I summoned the - thing. I got desperate..."

Hug.

Such hug.

"Do you... know what it is? The summoned thing?"

"Yeah. I - I'm it, or as much of it as could fit into this reality."

"I'm - it thinks of itself as one of the - beings? That drive the Force in its universe. But here - the Force here is weird. Empty? Or not that, and not static, but it's like - it feels like clay. And the Force is supposed to - does in its universe - feel like... It has currents? And I'm - either I'm one of those currents or I'm one of the things creating those? And I can - it could - interact with - I guess normal people reaching for the Force in a way it could... Click with? And it could help them more if their wants aligned with its, or like - they directed it and it worked through them? And it could influence people who got - close enough while not having good enough boundaries, to want and do the things it wants, because I'm - it's - want. It doesn't have a form in time or space, it's just - desire."

"That sounds- really dangerous."

"It's - powerful."

"Yeah."

A shift -

And kiss.

"But you make me feel like me."
