He takes a moment to look up at the sky, his fingers tightening a little as they lace together with hers. He hums noncommittally, then says, "You're right, it does look like it might rain." An honest reading of the play of the clouds above them? They do look a little heavy and gray, don't they? And who knows better about the weather and climate of Naboo than her? With that he looks back to her, smiling — knowingly, impishly, as though they're exchanging a secret — before he lets her lead the way to their destination.

It's not hard to locate the yawning mouth of the cave, and he helps her make the climb; she's tiny and nearly weightless that he can practically just toss her over his shoulder and carry her all the way inside like a sack of potatoes. He doesn't, of course, not wanting to insult her or rob her of the experience, especially since she's insisted that she's dressed in the appropriate cave exploration attire. As they traverse the rocks to the entrance, he uses the Force to clear the path ahead of them, making sure there aren't any predators lurking about or other dangers that might spring up on them and put her at risk. This might be an unofficial detour, and here and now they might not be senator and Jedi, but that doesn't mean he's any less her protector, her defender.

The sight that greets them after they cross the mouth of the cave is so stunning that even he stops to take a moment to breathe and take the view in. He's been to a crystal cave before — there's a one near Winterfell, behind a waterfall — but it hadn't been anything like this, as though the earth had swallowed up the night and transformed it into shards of moonlight. "Not black," he declares triumphantly, turning his head to grin at her, because he has to. This location had been his suggestion, after all.

It could rain – Naboo was full of surprises. The sky could open up and unleash a downpour upon them, or a quiet, gentle sprinkle could begin without warning. Thunder could crack and shudder through the clouds. Anything could happen. She hardly cares what sort of weather is going to serve as the backdrop for this expedition, anyway, trying not to stay stunned at the fact that their fingers are still laced, that they’re keeping this contact as if it’s ordinary and meaningless. Or as if its meaning doesn’t flout the code of formality they’re supposed to be abiding by. She’s not going to be the one to retract her hand first. Flicking a curious glance up to gauge his reaction, either to their comfortable intimacy or the weather, she’s charmed by that knowing, impish smile she finds, returning a cheerful smile of her own. “No time to waste, then.”

There’s the threat of the rain, after all, and the threat of this stolen time disappearing just as easily as they’d found it, so she takes her role as leader swiftly and surely. The cave they’re after is easy to find, thankfully, even if there is a careful climb involved. One that she’s not quite dressed for, but that has never stopped her before, and so she doesn’t balk now. He’s there to help her, anyway, with a steady hand and a gentle strength, and it does cross her mind that she could just as easily climb onto his back and allow him to do the clambering for both of them. But there’s something to be said for the light exertion it takes to reach the cave, and there’s no dulling her wonder when she bears witness to another display of the Force, even if it’s only to clear a safe path for them. Invisible energy that can be commanded by a human hand to lift physical objects; how could she ever not stand in awe?

The mouth of the cave is an invitation to things unseen, of course, so it’s with bubbling excitement that she finally crosses that threshold, not yet releasing his hand. She does release her astonishment with a gasp, however, because while ‘crystal cave’ calls to mind all sorts of vibrant imagery, it couldn’t have prepared her for the sight glowing before them now. Luminous crystals, exactly as she’d hoped there would be, but she couldn’t have imagined that they would look like this. Like the cave is made of night sky and the shining, softly burning crystals are made of moonlight. Captured flames of color, stones made of starlight, an incandescent hideaway right here on Naboo. She doesn’t have time to regret how much of her life she’d lived never knowing the cave was here, too infatuated with the fact that it’s here now, tugging her taller counterpart along and holding a speechless breath as if breathing might extinguish the glow of the light-infused stones. There’s only room for a dazed whisper. “Are these real?”

The mouth of the cave is an invitation to things unseen, true, but it's not the crystals that hold his attention. They do, fleetingly; they're startlingly beautiful, after all, like moonlight distilled into tiny, human-sized stars. He could stare at them forever... but he doesn't. Instead, his gaze flits to her face, easily, thoughtlessly, naturally, drawn by the excitement in her eyes and the happiness radiating off her like the warmth of a sun. She loves it here, as he'd hoped she would. And he made it happen. How strange, for him to feel this way, and more and more each day? He's found himself wanting more of that smile, more of that laugh, more of that wonder, and the thrill it brings him to know that he'd given her some happiness, that he can be more than what everyone back in his homeworld had said he could only ever be.

"They're real," he answers, grey eyes still not leaving her, even she tugs him forward, deeper into the cave. He won't let go unless she does. Because he wants to see if one of the crystals is calling out to her. Because he wants to keep an eye on her and make sure she stays safe. And simply because he wants his hand to remain in hers, fingers laced together, an impossible tangle that under ordinary circumstances should not be sanctioned. "I'm... not well-versed in crystal lore or science," he admits. "But I know that they are real." He does know something, occasionally. "Go on, you can touch them. You're safe."

He feels a curious ping somewhere further into the cave, a melody that's sad and haunting but eerily beautiful, and it surprises him not because he can hear it, but because he's not expected to find himself attuned to more than one crystal. Because that's what it is: a crystal calling out to him. Could it be possible, then? What she'd said, about having lightsabers in every color? She'd be delighted if that were true, and he can already see the changes to their flight plan, the detours taking longer, more roundabout, their stopovers growing in number. He also realizes the implication of that, as selfish as he knows it is. More time. Borrowed, stolen, however it is. But more of it.
