[derriphan]

And I thought family was meant to look out for each other.

[androit]

A storm and only a toga?





Besides it was metaphorical of course I would idiot.

[derriphan]

Some sort of hazing ritual. That or Uncle's finally lost his mind.

[androit]

Hopefully that sort of thing isn't genetic. Can the force stop viruses?

[derriphan]

If it can't then the gallon of Kessel rum I'm planning on drinking once I'm back on the shuttle probably will.

[androit]

You had better be ready to share that. I'm overdue for a visit, anyway.

[derriphan]

Funny how you always seem to materialize whenever the rum's flowing.

[ Which is older brother speak for: Get your ass over here, it's boring without your stupid face hanging around. ]

[androit]

[ Oh, he's hurrying. ]

What other reason might I have to visit your boring training destinations?

[derriphan]

The fun times and welcoming atmosphere?

[ No, seriously. Please come and rescue him from these tragic, tragic people Junior. ]

[androit]

[ Keep your robes on, he'll be there soon. He might not be the second-coming of the Force, but he at least knows how to take shortcuts like their father. ]

Maybe once the rum already been involved. If you wanted me to come sooner you could have just asked instead of toga-trotting.

[derriphan]

But this way I get to spread the misery.

[androit]

Obligatory something something dark side something unbecoming. If you cough on me, I'm out.

[derriphan]

Please. If I'm coughing on anyone I'm coughing all over Uncle Luke. Who deserves it.

You know he tried to get me to piggyback him on a hike once?

[androit]

Was he drunk?

[ That's all he's got. Even if Uncle Luke doesn't get drunk, that has to be why. ]

[derriphan]

I wish. He was trying to pass it off as some sort of ancient training thing.

I think it just took it out of him.

[androit]

He's getting older. Maybe our side of the family got all the longevity.

[derriphan]

The longevity and the sanity?

[ Okay, to be fair, Leia seemed to be growing old gracefully. Which meant that it was just a male Skywalker thing. Which meant that they were probably still screwed. Kriff. ]

Should we be worried? It feels like we should probably be worried.

[androit]

The fact that we know to be worried probably means we have a better chance.

Maybe.

[derriphan]

Promise me that if I ever get it into my head to live out the rest of my days on some backwater planetoid that you'll smack some sense into me.

[androit]

Of course I would. I'll even drag you back to society, kicking and screaming. Although the alcohol on the backwater planets tends to have a certain kick to it...

[ He doesn't actually drink all that much, really, but he does find his brother's irritation entertaining when it's only so harmless. ]
