fh_trips | Endor [Monday, December 29]

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."

"You miss me that much, you have to tackle me?" Gavin asked, trying to wrestle Luke's hands to the ground in an attempt to pin him not dirty.

"I didn't miss you at all," Luke lied as he was happily pinned not dirty.

"You know you missed me," Gavin said, smiling widely. "You pine for me!"

"I do not," Luke ~~giggled~~ laughed. "You're the one that writes poetry!"

"I do not!" Gavin said, reaching to muss his hair. "You're a girl!"

"No, that's Leia," Luke corrected, trying to tickle Gavin.

"She's more manly than you!"

Which.

"Don't tell her I said that."

"Since you want to live to see your next birthday," Luke assumed, reaching for Gavin's hair.

"Do you want me to make you eat dirt?" Gavin asked, trying to get out of Luke's reach but not really succeeding.

"Like you could, sand rat," Luke scoffed.

"I'm bigger than you!" Gavin said. "And stronger!"

"And not a Jedi," Luke said.

"I don't need to be a Jed to kick your ass," he said and reached to pinch Luke's arm.

Luke reached into the Force to hover Gavin just a little bit into the air.

"Luke ended up naked in public a few times!" Gavin called, kicking his legs in the air.

"You big gay German magician!" Luke cried back.

"You had a crush on the kriffing tiger!" Gavin shot back.

"I vud nevah cheat on you, luff moffin!" Luke said, laughing.

"Oh god," he said, unable to not laugh. "You're such a dork."

Luke let Gavin down. "This can't be a shock to you."

"It's not," he said, getting his balance back after his lift in the air. "It's okay. You're in good company."

"It's a great comfort to me, knowing I've never fallen off a horse," Luke teased.

"Shut up!" Gavin said. "I didn't fall, I was thrown."

"Wild, vicious creature, huh?"

"You know, I might have fallen off a horse but I never woke up with one," Gavin said.
