[armd]

You're only thirty-eight?

(he conducts himself with the wisdom and common-sense of somebody much older than that, in abby's opinion.)

[jedies]

What were you expecting?

[armd]

For you to be older than thirty-eight, obviously.

[jedies]

Yes, but by how much?

[armd]

Hmmmm

I don't want to say

[jedies]

Now I'm a little concerned.

[armd]

I didn't think you were 60 years old or anything, don't worry

[jedies]

What a relief.

[armd]

Would that actually have bothered you?

(has she found an unexpected weak point)

[jedies]

Perhaps a little. I'm not immune to vanity.

[armd]

Well, it was more because of your... attitude, than because of what you look like. Just so you know

[jedies]

I thought it might have been.

[armd]

Not the first time you've heard it huh

[jedies]

It comes along every now and then.

[armd]

Can't imagine why.

Do you think the war will end soon

[jedies]

It should. I was on my way to capture the last general before I came here.

[armd]

What a time to get interrupted

You want to go home too, then.

[jedies]

. . . I'm not sure.

[armd]

Oh.

(well. abby's just shown her hand so it's time for a bad joke–) I've heard that pros and cons lists work pretty good in these situations

[jedies]

You make an excellent point.

[ a deliberate pause. ]

I miss my galaxy. My people. The Jedi. I have duties there. But I also have a feeling I have unfinished business here.

And I don't think Anakin is ready to go back just yet.

[armd]

Yeah. Lev doesn't want to go back so I'll probably see you around here for a while longer yet

What do you mean by unfinished business?

[jedies]

I'm not sure how to explain it. Just that I get the feeling my time here is not yet complete.

As if the Force is urging me to stay.

[armd]

Kinda sounds like you could blame any old feeling on the Force if you wanted

[jedies]

We could. But I try not to.

[armd]

Would that be unethical where you come from or something
