Momanon here! How did it go? Remember no matter what this was just one interaction of many you’ve had and will have with others, so don’t put too much pressure on yourself either way! This was NOT a litmus test of if you’re a good person. If you said one thing awkward, all that means is you said one thing awkward. It isn’t a metaphor for your whole personality! But if it went great, amazing! One of many great interactions in your life because you are great!

mom you’re back!! unlike my real mother

thanks for checking on me! it went all right. ben’s dad picked us up in his junk ship. but i was polite and i mentioned the kessel run and i think i saw han solo visibly swell with pride so thanks anon for that suggestion

for the first half hour we all just made fun of ben and his inability to wear clothes that aren’t sweaters. so that was fun. put me at ease. han and leia are surprisingly nice people. i tried to call them captain solo and senator organa at first, but they told me no, and then i went for mr. and mrs. but han was like “i’m not fancy enough to be a mister” and leia was like “please don’t do that it makes me feel old.”

so i was like “han and leia it is, then”

and i’m actually really proud of myself because i didn’t say anything offensive while i was there. granted i didn’t say much of anything while i was there, but. i’m still proud. i usually say at least five offensive things per day

leia said she remembered me. she said luke brought me to kashyyyk once for life day, before we had any other students. i don’t really remember...but i guess i kind of remember clinging to luke the whole time, and ben being an ugly whiny baby who vaguely resembled a potato and tried to yank my head-tails

we played truth or dare and i learned that ben solo used to eat live bugs as a child. i can’t believe i ever wanted to kiss that mouth

fannie covered me for most of the times we had to talk. the foster kid was asking a ton of questions and it was overwhelming so i let fannie answer most of them. and when we were talking to leia i let fannie do most of the talking too. but leia did nab me alone at one point and let me tell you i was anxious beyond all belief but i guess it was okay; she was trying to ask me about myself and about luke and how i’m doing and stuff but i was scared she was just trying to interrogate me to figure out what kind of hooligan her son is associating with...i didn’t dare believe she was invested at all in my well-being

leia bought some food for dinner but it wasn’t vegan because ben forgot to tell her. so ben made me a plum-tomato sandwich. and then he made fun of me for taking protein supplement pills; he was like “oh amalia you’re finally on meds thank goodness!” and i know he was joking but it made me wonder if he thinks i’m crazy or mentally wrong. but i didn’t think about it for too long because i knew he wasn’t thinking about it anymore and i didn’t want to be awkward

han solo isn’t as cool as i thought he would be. he’s kind of a nerd. he’s like totally obsessed with his ship. and i guess once you’re not a handsome young rogue anymore, and you have a teenage son, you fully embrace your new role as embarrassing dad. so half the time he was just making fun of ben and it was kind of amazing

speaking of embarrassing ben, at one point i went to the refresher to get some alone time because i was anxious. i really didn’t want to cry because of my makeup. but luckily i looked up and saw that over the bathtub the organa-solos have this holo of ben as a toddler in the bath. you can’t see anything of course because his parents aren’t that cruel but. it was delightfully humiliating. i nearly died it cheered me up instantaneously

anyway i guess i felt a little insecure at ben’s house. like i didn’t belong there. but not to the degree that i was afraid i might. i didn’t exactly feel like family the way ben promised, but that is all right; i wasn’t expecting to. maybe when you are a person who has never actually had a family, feeling like you’re part of one is not something that comes easily to you. maybe it takes time

but. i’m glad i went.

Ask Luke what he thinks.

luke says he sees nothing wrong with me going to ben’s house, as long as i don’t spend time with him alone

luke says his family is very nice and that i will like them a lot

luke says the foster kid is cute and that i shouldn’t be scared of her. he says the foster kid will think i am cool and strong and pretty

luke says that if i go, i should offer to cook because the organa-solos do not know how to cook.

he says that leia has never not burned something before, that han still thinks you can put foil in the microwave, that ben routinely eats nothing but plum-tomato sandwiches, and that the foster daughter grew up on military ration packs.

if i go, i will not let any of them cook for us
