I thought you did not even like me.

In fact, I am pretty sure you described me as a "whiny fuckboy."

So what's this then? You start watching one cartoon and reading a few wiki pages and you suddenly like me? Listen, I don't have time to get jerked around by a questionable mun like you. Why don't you hurry along and go make a journal for that pilot you like or something. As long as it's out of my way.

It is, yes.

[ Anakin's gaze is suspicious, now. ] What is yours?

[shortforastormtrooper]

[Okay, that's a little weird...]

It's Luke. Luke Skywalker.

[generalskywalker]

I've never heard of you.

[ It's accusatory. Anakin is nothing if not confrontational. ]

I've only known one other Skywalker, and you're definitely not my mother.

[shortforastormtrooper]

[Yeah, he's getting defensive at that.]

And the only one I've heard of besides me is my father.

[generalskywalker]

Where are you from?

[ It has never occurred to Anakin that there might be more Skywalkers in the galaxy. Slowly, he is realizing it was a stupid thought, that no one besides his mother and he would ever have the name. It is not a particularly complicated one. And his mother came from somewhere, some family, who might have branches stretching far beyond what he knew.

Still, that does not mean he has to be comfortable with it. ]

[shortforastormtrooper]

Tatooine.

[A good question, really. Surely, he had to have more family somewhere. Even if that was just in a cemetery. Skywalker might not have been Antilles, but names didn't pop up from nowhere.]

[generalskywalker]

I'm from Tatooine.

[ Damn it, now he's starting to realize the similarities. They've got the same hair color, the same eye color... were they related?

Anakin had to take a deep breath to calm himself down. ]

[shortforastormtrooper]

[His eye widen just a smidge. Getting very strange here. Almost suspiciously so. And they do look a bit alike...]

Whereabouts? I'm from a moisture farm, between Mos Eisley and Anchorhead.

[generalskywalker]

Mos Espa. I used to work at a parts store.

[ His shrug is dismissive, and almost awkward. ]

But that was a long time ago.

[shortforastormtrooper]

Huh. That's pretty much on the other side of the planet.

I know the feeling. Don't know if I'll ever go back there.
