Potential for The Force Awakens in comments (voicetesting/bandwagon jumping)

[shortforastormtrooper]

[Have a A New Hope-era Luke Skywalker, people.]

Mun? Mun? What are you keeping from me? I should be celebrating! We just blew up the Death Star!

I mean, yeah... we lost Ben. I still miss him. But things have to be looking up. We hit the Empire hard!

...Mun? Why do you keep looking away?

[abovedeception]

[Why not complicate things further? Ben is the name he has chosen for himself while he watches over Luke, yet this must be some coincidence.]

How did you lose this...Ben?

[shortforastormtrooper]

[Huh. This guy kind of looks familiar...]

[Luke shakes his head, replaying the scene in his mind.]

He sacrificed himself fighting Darth Vader, so the rest of us could escape.

[abovedeception]

[Clearly he never loses his selfless streak. Not that he can blame his older self.]

You must be Luke, then.

[shortforastormtrooper]

[Okay, getting weird...]

Uh... yeah. Have we met?

[abovedeception]

Yes, though you could hardly remember. I know you only as an infant.

[neverjoinyou]

[Do you mind doubles?]

[shortforastormtrooper]

[Don't mind at all! C'mon down!]

okay so for contrast, have a post-ROTJ Luke despite the icons

[neverjoinyou]

Yeah. You should be celebrating.

[They're the same man, all right, but this one's got a sadness in his eyes the other lacks.]

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Just be prepared. It's not over.

[shortforastormtrooper]

You... you're...

[But he can see the sadness that weighs the other Luke down.]

I... I guess some part of me kind of thought it was. It all seemed to simple, for a minute.

[neverjoinyou]

I know. I remember.

Yeah, this is weird. I know. It's weird for me too.

I just... I want you to know. It's gonna get weird. A lot weirder. But it'll be okay.

[captainpike]

[Empire? Death Star?]

I take it...you're in the middle of a war?

[Pike is only guessing, but he's had enough experience fighting to make an educated guess. Is this kid really old enough to be fighting a war?]

[shortforastormtrooper]

Smack dab in the middle of it. We just blew up their big new weapon, but there's still a lot more of them out there than us.

[captainpike]

[Pike gives him a scrutinizing look.]

Aren't you a little young to be fighting a war?

[shortforastormtrooper]

I'm nineteen.

[He shakes his head.]

Nothing left for me to do but fight them anyway.

[captainpike]

[Arms crossed.]

You look 16.

[Sad situation, when kids had to go to war. Pike's seen enough fighting to last his own timeline, he had hoped the next generations would be better at getting along. However, if some Empire was trying to take over...]

Have a Nine?

[agooddalek]

Losing people is hard, but it's always great when you win the day, isn't it? Those days are fantastic.

Certainly!

[shortforastormtrooper]

It really was. Felt like I was walking on air.

[No, he doesn't get the near-pun he just made.]

[agooddalek]

You have to remember those moments when things start to look bad. We can't win all the time, but it is fantastic when it happens.

What was it you said you blew up? A death star?

[shortforastormtrooper]

Yeah. The Death Star. This giant space station the Empire built... for destroying planets.

[agooddalek]

[On a scale of one to Dalek invasions that was definitely up there. The Doctor's eyebrows shot up.]

Saving the galaxy? That is fantastic. What's your name?

[neverbeenajedi]

Glad to know my "death" did something good for the galaxy.

[Starkiller can sense something familiar about this guy, but he can't quite put his finger on it.]

Have we met? You seem really...familiar.

[shortforastormtrooper]

Your death?

I don't think so...?

[neverbeenajedi]

A couple of years before you and your friends destroyed the Death Star, I put together the people who started the Rebel Alliance. Bail Organa, Garm Bel Iblis, Mon Mothma. I nearly died when I had to rescue them from the space station you destroyed.

["Nearly", considering he was suspended in bacta for six months after fighting Emperor Palpatine.]

I don't know. Have you ever been to Kamino? Or Dagobah?

[shortforastormtrooper]

You helped start the Rebellion?

Definitely not. I'd never even been off Tatooine before now.

[neverbeenajedi]

I did, yeah. Not that any of them'll admit it. The senators were all too scared to go public with how they felt about the Empire. Until I gave them a reason to rebel.

[That reason being the destruction of the Star Destroyer factory over Raxus Prime. Starkiller can still remember General Kota shouting "Pull it out of the sky!" at him, when one of the Star Destroyers broke loose from the station, and began to fall to the planet's surface. Starkiller had managed the impossible that day, literally tearing a Star Destroyer out of the atmosphere, so it would crash into a metal ore cannon on the planet's surface.]

Tatooine? But that's where....nevermind.

[Where Darth Vader is from, he wants to say, but he holds his tongue. Now he knows why this guy feels so familiar. He's Darth Vader's son.]

What's your name?
