I - [Luke's head is tipped back, wavering a little. He's too new in the Force to get a reliable feel for the world around him with it, and he's still figuring out the different impressions it gives him.] - I don't think this will work out.

So... okay, you uploaded a full set of icons and found keywords. And I'm not helpless, I can still fight if I have to. A Jedi doesn't need eyes.

...That's what you named the journal? Isn't that a little -

Anyway, this isn't a good time. I messed up. Maybe now I can't do as much to try and fix it as I could otherwise, but I still have to do what I can.

A Jedi might not need eyes, but something tells me you aren't ready to do without them yet.

I know that voice. Leia?

Hello, Luke. Do I even want to know what you've gotten into this time?

[It's said with a great deal of fondness]

Leia - I -

I messed up. I messed up so badly...

[nonerfherders]

[She's suddenly all business; not that he can see that, but her voice goes serious; she steps forward and places a hand on his shoulder]

Tell me. What happened?

[Luke startles at the touch, but covers her hand with both of his.]

I'm such an idiot, Leia. It was a trap, but - we could've sprung it if I just stopped and listened.

[If she's from a later point... well, he came back from Jazbina with eye damage that took bacta to fully clear up and a report that an established Rebel pilot had sacrificed himself heroically, the king was dead but the princess/queen was basically on their side.]
