Not the Jedi Way

Wormie

A few days later Luke was out with Din getting his ship fixed while Leia and Han babysat Grogu. The Jedi and Mandalorian flew for a good second. "So why did you want to come with me again?"

"Just wanted to get out. Also wanted to meet your mechanic. My X-wing could use some work."

"You could use a new ship."

"Hey! He's my baby. We've been through a lot. I'm not getting a new ship." Luke pretend to be offended and got a small chuckle out of Din. Mission accomplished. After hearing him laugh yesterday while training he made it his mission to hear him laugh more often.

When they arrived Luke stepped out immediately regretting it.

"Wormie?! Skywalker! You kriffing bastard!" Peli stormed up to him.

Luke put his hands in the air backing up. "Hey, Miss Motto. Long time no see-" He put on an awkward smile.

"Do you know how worried I was when you just disappeared like that! Then I hear your uncle and aunt died. Suddenly you're a war hero!"

Din looked confused. "You know each other?"

"That little womp rat worked for me until he suddenly up and left to save the universe! Kriffing Bastard!" She hit the Jedi.

"Ouch-" Luke put up his hands protecting his face. "I meant to drop by but then I got wrapped up in politics and Jedi stuff and-"

"You'll sit down with me for tea now. You too, Mando." She told her droids to fix up the ship. After that she dragged them inside, forcing them to sit down. "You two have some things to explain. How did you end up together and where's the kid?"

"Well, the kid called me. I'm training him and I guess Din lives with me now."

"Well, I'll be damned, Wormie is a fully-fledged Jedi."

"Well, I wouldn't say fully-fledged."

Din interrupted them. "What's the Wormie thing?"

"Oh, it's his nickname on Tatooine."

Din chuckled finding the nickname hilarious. "Why Wormie?"

"Cause he was or is a scrawny kid and-"

"Hey! I'm not scrawny!"

"Sure." Peli laughed.

Din smiled to himself. "So, Wormie, you worked here?"

"Don't call me that Din." Luke looked at him frowning. "Yeah I liked tinkering with stuff so this seemed fitting. Oh by the way you don't have X-wing spares by any chance?"

While they looked for them Leia and Han put Grogu and Ben to bed. They sat down in the living room. "I'll get us something to drink." Han went off to the kitchen when he found the holovideo on top of the cabinets where Luke had put it after yesterday not wanting it in his room. "I can't believe her-" He grabbed it angrily. "Sweetheart, can you explain this?" He held it up to her being pissed.

"He had a right to know!"

"You took his father away from him! He's probably distraught."

"His father was a monster! He killed younglings and blew up my home planet!" Leia got up getting upset.

Han threw the holovideo on the floor. "Does your hatred for him justify destroying his picture of him and making him upset? You know he has a lot on his plate already. He didn't need this!"

"I can't believe you're mad at me for telling my brother the truth!" Leia looked at him pissed.

"I can't believe you went behind my back!" He raised his arms. "And I can't believe you would hurt the kid like that!"
