Endor [Monday, December 29]

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke, a tall golden droid, and the Ewok chief Chirpa, were waiting for the volunteers when the portal finally deposited everyone on Endor. "Welcome," Luke said, giving them all a smile, "and thank you in advance for your help."

He gestured to the Ewok. "This is Chief Chirpa, the leader of Bright Tree Village, where we'll be staying for the next few days." Chirpa bowed to them, then spoke a few words. The droid shuffled forward to translate. "Chief Chirpa welcomes you to Endor," he said, words coming out pinched and precise, "and requests that you make yourself at home. If there is anything he or his warriors can do while you are assisting their neighbors, please let him know."

There was a brief conversation between Threepio and the Chief. "Or tell me and I will convey it," Threepio said. "I am C-3PO, human cyborg relations, and will be serving as translator for you during your stay here. Do watch out for the bugs, and the large drops, and the variety of creatures found in the forest..."

Luke shook his head at him and Threepio stopped speaking. "He worries a little too much," he explained with an easy smile. "If you'll follow me, you can drop off your stuff in the visitors' quarters and we can get started building some huts."

"I like guys who aren't my grandfather," she said pointedly. "...The blue flame of literal fire?"

"Your grandfather? Dude, those are some good genes," Toby reasoned, considering her and wondering how she got all short. "It's the hottest kind of fire. I saw it on TV."

"Can we maybe not refer to my grandfather as... anything relating to fire? In public? With me around, at the very least?"

"Huh, does that make you from here? Growing up with adorable Ewoks would be totes awesome."

"Not with the Ewoks, but this galaxy," she nodded. "In an alternate universe."

"Aww, that's too bad," Toby felt sorry for her. "They'd be even better than dogs."

"We had Noghri. Better guards than dogs," she replied.

"Ooh, do they snuggle better than dogs?" Toby wondered.

"You'd generally not want to snuggle with them," Jaina said. "They're the throat-slitting type"
