Luke Skywalker:

How they react to you flinching during an argument:

Luke's heart shatters the moment he sees you flinch, his anger and frustration evaporating almost instantly. He had never meant to frighten you, and the guilt that sweeps through him is like a tidal wave, overpowering any lingering irritation from the argument. He freezes, his bright blue eyes softening as realization dawns on him, the weight of his Jedi training pressing down, reminding him to stay in control of his emotions. His hand instinctively twitches, halfway reaching out to comfort you, but he hesitates, unsure if you'll want to be touched in this moment. The flinch plays on a loop in his mind, reminding him of the galaxy's cruelty and the last thing he ever wanted was to add to it, especially when it comes to you. His breaths slow, grounding himself as his resolve to be better deepens. Guilt gnaws at him as he takes a small, cautious step closer, his expression now gentle, filled with a silent plea for forgiveness. Luke knows he has to rebuild that trust, slowly and carefully, and he'd spend the rest of his life making sure you never felt unsafe around him again.

How they react to you having a nightmare:

Luke's always had a soft, gentle presence, and that's exactly what you feel when you wake up from a nightmare in the middle of the night, breath catching in your throat and skin damp with sweat. His arms are already around you before you're fully aware, pulling you into his chest as his voice murmurs softly, "Shh, it's okay, I'm here." His Jedi training makes him sensitive to shifts in emotion, so it's no surprise that he sensed your distress before you could say a word. "Was it a vision?" he asks, his tone serious but soothing, concerned that it might have been something more than just a bad dream. You shake your head, unable to speak just yet, and he presses a kiss to your forehead, his fingers stroking your hair. "Whatever it was, it's not real. You're safe now, with me." His words are laced with the kind of hope and reassurance that only Luke can bring, and slowly, the anxiety gripping your chest begins to loosen. He stays up with you for as long as it takes, listening if you want to talk, but mostly just holding you tight, the rhythmic beat of his heart grounding you in the present until the terror from your nightmare fades away.

How you sleep:

Luke sleeps with a peaceful aura, his body instinctively curling towards you as though he's subconsciously protecting you, even in sleep. The farm boy in him emerges as he pulls you close, his arm draped over your waist, his breathing soft and even, like the gentle rustling of Tatooine's breeze through moisture vaporators. He is a restless sleeper at times, shifting positions as if he's unconsciously facing the battles and doubts that accompany being a Jedi. When you stir, his hold tightens briefly, as if reassuring himself you're still there, anchoring him in a reality that offers something more tangible than the Force. There are nights when his dreams become turbulent, and you can feel the faint tremor in his fingertips against your skin, his expression contorting as the weight of expectations settles in, only for him to relax the moment your hand brushes through his hair, grounding him back to the present, back to you.

How they react when they are jealous:

Luke's jealousy is quiet but noticeable in his demeanor, like a subtle shift in the Force itself. The easy warmth in his eyes dulls just slightly, his usually gentle smile strained as he watches you interact with someone who seems a bit too interested in you for his liking. He doesn't act possessive or confrontational, instead becoming more introspective, his gaze flickering to you often as though seeking reassurance. When the two of you are finally alone, there's a hesitant protectiveness in the way he stands close, his touch lingering on your arm or back as though silently asking if you still choose him. His voice, when he does speak, is a little softer and lower, and the sincerity in his eyes speaks volumes about his need for reassurance without him having to utter a word. Luke's jealousy is more about his fear of losing you than any desire to control you, and in the way he treats you afterward, it's clear that he's just trying to convince himself that he's enough for you.
