No, but I did spend a lot of time near the water, so they tended to get a little wet. Don't worry, I took proper care of them afterwards. I was a good toy mother, too.

A cactus, okay, that doesn't seem so difficult. With the both of us taking care of it, it's sure to flourish.

I'm sure she'd love that.

I never realized you had maternal instincts, Jyn. You keep surprising me with new skill sets.

At least it's unlikely to die from thirst. Hopefully. Maybe we should make it a particularly hardy cactus, just in case.

Mon Mothma would feel flattered, I'm sure. It's a great honor, us naming our firstborn after her.

I'm sure there are still many things that you don't yet know about me, Captain Andor. I endeavor to surprise you more often. :)

One would think! But, yes, I absolutely agree that we should choose a cactus that's exceptionally difficult to kill. Just in case.

Our firstborn cactus child. So beautiful. So ... prickly. Just like Mum & Dad.

If a desert world like Tatooine or Jakku can't kill it, neither should we. Or that's my hope, anyway.

It does come after us an awful lot. A truly worthy heir. I wonder how long till it fights its first Stormtrooper.

Your confidence in us astounds me. I'm sure that under our care, our tiny cactus child will flourish.

With parents like us, how could it not follow in our footsteps? It will be spectacular. 'troopers will weep in its presence.

Flourish splendidly. It'll be our pride and joy.

I wonder if there are poisonous cacti? This sounds like something I should research. Nothing would make me prouder.

Our prickly little family. I love it already.

... Poisonous? That's even better than I could have imagined! Well, now I am getting excited.

Just imagine it. You could first stab a Stormtrooper with it, and then the poison does the rest. Beautiful.

Baby's first kill. I'll be the proudest mum in the world on that day. Who do you think it'll take after more - me or you?

I'm a gentleman, I won't fight you for the title of the prickliest.

So very kind of you. She'll do well to take after her father, I think.

Thank you, Jyn, you make me proud. I'll strive to be a father she can be proud of.
