[Luke sighs. This is all so complicated, and he wishes he wasn't the one to give the news to this poor girl. Someone else would probably do a better job.] It's something to do with time. Anakin came here when the Clone Wars were still going. As far as I know? They've been over since before I was born.

[would have been nice is SOMEBODY had WARNED HER. But they didn't. So here she is, learning this for the first time.]

I heard that time isn't the same for everyone, but that's-- wow.

[But it's not just that that has her in so much shock. It's the whole idea, that Anakin has a family-- That wasn't exactly something the Jedi approved of. And that begs another question entirely: with who? Even before she asks, she has a feeling she has the answer already.]

If it's alright to ask-- who's your mother?

[t65]

[Luke shrugs awkwardly, a little self-conscious.] I don't really know her. [It seems wrong to mention someone when he has so little an idea of who she is. Like dragging her into something against her will. A name isn't enough to go on.]

But... how do you know my father?

[He says it hesitantly, tentatively. In truth, he's a little afraid to hear the answer.]

[divagated]

Oh. I'm sorry. [There could be a million reasons why he didn't, many of them sad and terrible. She doesn't push it, but she feels like she should at least explain why she asked.] I was just curious if I knew her, is all.

[But now it's her turn to get asked a question. She picks up on just how hesitant his words are, and she doesn't really understand why, other than maybe just the fact that it's weird speaking to someone from his father's past.]

Anakin is my Master-- I've been training with him for about two years now.
