❛ It’s so dark in here, makes the place feel all the more intimidating and mysterious, ❜ but he couldn’t let it get them down, turning to his companion with a warming smile. ❛ I am sure everything will be fine. Hopefully, soon we can find out how to turn the main lights on. ❜

                     “ I know this is gonna sound like crazy talk -- but hear me out for a second. ”  With an exaggerated flourish, he switches on the autopilot and swivels his seat around to face her.  “ Have you tried, y’know, talking to him? ”  Sure, he knows that getting a certain taciturn captain to open his trap basically requires a person to do magic. But if trying means a little less sniping and a lot more peace? Hell, he’ll take it. Wash shrugs.  “ But what do I know, right? ”  he says, flashing her a teasing grin.

Amy Aine got lost daily when confined to a single city on a single planet, so she hadn’t been keen on taking a job that sent her far beyond her familiar stars. But the promise of a newly discovered, one of a kind manuscript, too old and fragile for interspace travel and in need of her assistance for translation, had been enough to sway her to accept. Stepping aboard the ship she’d found passage on, doubt needled at her. What would she really find, so far from home? Would it be worth it, in the end? Impossible to know until she had the artifact in front of her, until she’d turned its ancient pages and poured over the carefully inked words for long-lost knowledge and stories. That would be a while yet, too, considering the distance between her home and that of the manuscripts’ owner. She’d been lucky to even find a ship going that far, having expected to have to change somewhere along the way, which knowing her would have ended with her accidentally on the wrong side of the solar system.

“I’ve never been on a spaceship before,” she admitted, smiling at the woman who had given her a brief tour of the place. Inara, if she remembered right from the initial meeting. “Well, I have, but not one that’s actually going anywhere.” Some wing of Tony’s company built them, and he’d showed her around a few as they idled in docks waiting to be sold. Those had been sleek, the luxury car of the sky, and looking around the Serenity she decided she preferred its character. “What’s it like to live on one? I don’t suppose you can have pets. I’m already missing my cat.” Madeline, who normally went everywhere with her, had been deemed unfit for interstellar travel and left in Pepper’s care.

❝ You’re not comin’. It’s too    dangerous for a woman like you. ❞

The Doctor walked out of the TARDIS and began down a street.  He wasn’t quite sure where he had landed this time, but it looked like somewhere between the years 2500 and 2550, not that it narrowed it down much.  He walked the busy streets, looking around at the sights and enjoying the views when he accidentally bumped into someone.

“My apologies,” he told her, “I wasn’t paying any attention.”  He offered his hand to help the other up.

Luke couldn’t help but stare for a moment, dumbfounded.  This was not at all what he’d expected when he’d come back to his rooms on Coruscant-- and even less expected was her answer. 

Say yes, just say yes.  Only an idiot would say no. Some part of his brain kept telling him-- it seemed to be the only part that was working, and yet...  He quickly turned his head and averted his eyes.

“Inara-- I think there must be some kind of mistake... I didn’t--”  But if he hadn’t, then who would have? And who would know his schedule? Have access to his rooms?  He could think of half a dozen people-- Rogue Squadron included -- who might have motive or access but not both.  Wedge certainly wouldn’t have-- and while Han might joke and be tempted, Han had to answer to Leia and that generally stopped him from taking pranks on his farmboy brother-in-law too far which meant that there wasn’t anyone left.  

No, that wasn’t true-- there was definitely someone who would think to take advantage of Luke’s confidence, of his fondness for the companion, who would know where his rooms were, when they’d be occupied and, most certainly, would know how to get into them without arousing suspicion.

“I think this is the doing of a friend of mine-- mustache, opera cape, very smooth.  He probably thinks he was doing me a favor.  I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to waste your time.”  

As much as that part of his brain had been screaming at him to say yes, he wouldn’t-- not under false pretenses... and still, that didn’t mean it didn’t hurt.  For a moment-- just for a moment -- he would have liked to use his body for something other than making war. 

“At least let me make you dinner or something before you go.  I always make too much for one person anyway.”  It was the least he could do.

“I’m sorry, I don’t think we’ve met-- Luke Skywalker.  Are you one of Leia’s associates?” Leave it to Leia to be the reason Luke had to show up to fancy shindigs like this; it was easy, therefore, to assume that anyone in attendance knew Leia.

Luke smiled and stood up from where he’d set the table-- it wasn’t anything fancy, just the kind of home cooking he had grown up with and that his aunt had taught him to make years ago on Tatooine.  The place settings were simple as well, but he’d done his best to make it look nice as well. 

He wasn’t sure why he hadn’t been expecting a question as to why, but he did turn a little sheepish at it all the same, not entirely sure what to say.  As always, he fell back on the truth-- and tried to be open as well. 

“I was glad to hear you’d come back to Coruscant, and I thought you might want something other than ration packs.” Granted, he had no idea if the crew she traveled on had a cook or not; but that wasn’t really the point of the gesture.

“I wanted to see you. You know... while we were on the same planet.”
