More than two years, now. You weren't even trying to pick me up, and I still haven't left. You've changed - for the better, I think. Keep at it.

Okay, I support the plan to adopt my clone in the game, but we have to find another name for him. You're running out of mythological names I know about, and anyway I don't think another human should be named the same way as a dæmon.

"Jinn" is great on a meta level, but would I even think of it?

Why not ask him? Plenty of the clones I know chose their own names.

[he might suggest something, but there's no guarantee he'll be back in time...it's making him impatient, but he's trying not to let it show.]

This one's not quite as together as most of the clones you know. Well, you met him; he's better than he was, but still. The possibilities I've heard floated past me... I don't care for them. [Said so, so mildly.]

An issue here is that I'm just more imaginative than my mundane, when it comes to names. [There is a comic where Darth Vader hallucinates what might have happened if he hadn't gone to the Dark Side; Padme is Supreme Chancellor and they have a single child named Jinn Skywalker.]

He...was like a youngling.

[it made him uncomfortable, probably because it made him remember that most of his men were ten standard years at the most. Even with accelerated growth and flash-learning, could they really be considered adults? His Padawan was still a child as well, but she was a Jedi. It was different. He'd seen his first battle younger than her.]

[to be fair, some species with short lifespans reached maturity at such an age, but humans and near-humans didn't. And the clone's daemon still changed, like a child's. Anakin shifts his stance a little, betraying that uneasiness.]

I'm not really the right person to ask. About names. [you're lucky your mom's the one who named you, Luke.] Neither is she. [a one-shoulder shrug meant to indicate his mun.] She still gets intimidated by her lack of knowledge.

[When he's not distracted, Luke is perceptive. Gently:]

He is. Don't worry, I'll make sure he's taken care of, and... I'm not without resources, anyway. One of my students, X2, is a Kamino clone. He's a Master now. He will help.

Ah, well. [Faint smile, mostly suppressed.] I'm more inventive than mine usually credits me as being. There's no shame in lack of knowledge. Most people start with nothing.
