Chewbacca had finally gotten away from Luke, though it took about and hour longer than he would have liked. He was now walking to the princess's quarters to inform her of the current state of their plan.
He knocks lightly on the door. A few shuffling noises could be heard inside and then the door slid open. An expectant looking Leia stood there to great him.
"Well?"
He sighed and stepped into the room. He knew that the news he carried was to going to be what she wanted to hear.
"<The kid likes him.>"
"Are you sure?" Leia asked hestitantly. She knew as well as anyone that Luke could be fairly affectionate even in platonic relationships.
"<Trust me on this.>" The Wookiee said, sitting on a chair by the princess's desk. "<We'll never get a confession out of him though. He's too shy.>"
Leia began to pace. Chewbacca had come to learn that she did this when in deep thought.
"I suppose that's to be expected. Though it would have worked out so nicely if he was willing to tell him."
Chewbacca nodded in agreement.
"<So what do we do?>"
Leia paced a bit faster now. The Wookiee could practically see the gears spinning in her head. He was in the presence of a true diplomat.
"If we can't get a confession out of Luke, we need to get one from Han. The question is how. He's stubborn for sure. It'll take someone skilled to crack him."
Chewbacca cocked his head. Crack him? Were they trying to set them up or obtain a conviction?
"<What do you mean?>"
Leia stopped in her tracks and turned to face the Wookiee.
"I mean it'll take me."
Chewbacca laughed. He was Han's copilot! If he couldn't get a confession out of him then Leia certainly wasn't going to!
"<Apologies, princess. But you have to admit your relationship with Han is strained to say the least. I'm not sure you're the best person to do this!>"
Leia moved closer to Chewbacca, determination in her eyes.
"Well you certainly haven't done any better! I'm a trained diplomat, Chewbacca. I was born to do this!"
The Wookiee nodded. He wasn't going to argue with royalty.
"<Have at it then.>"
