Because Han Solo lives to give Luke and Mara a hard time...




KID CONSORT

by JediMara77

Han hadn’t wanted to come to this gala. He had much better things to do at home, like watch shockball. And bond with his children. While watching shockball.

Leia would hear nothing of it, of course. But the evening took a turn for the better when Mara and Luke—the Empress and her Consort—arrived almost an hour late to the festivities. Judging from the rosy glow on their cheeks and the goofy smiles they were trying and failing to hide, Han had a pretty good idea of what had caused their tardiness.

Han approached his brother-in-law while he was distracted, hungrily perusing the hors d’oeuvres table. “How’s the food, Kid Consort?”

Luke’s head snapped up when he heard Han’s nickname, a telltale blush already spreading across his neck. “Uh, hey Han. It’s good!”

“It should be, I’m missing shockball for this,” Han grumbled.

“What?”

“Oh, nothing. So, kid…you and the Empress showed up pretty late. Airspeeder problems?”

Luke took a big bite of one of the pastries, chewing slowly so he could regain his composure. “Uh, no,” he stammered after he’d finished swallowing. “We…um…lost track of something at home.”

“Right,” Han drawled. “Let me guess what that was—the time?”

Luke’s eyes widened comically. “What? No! No, it was, um, Mara’s dress.” Realizing how that must’ve sounded, he grimaced. “I mean, there was a problem with her dress! It needed, um, to be hemmed.” He took another bite and glanced around frantically, most likely looking for his wife, who was busy talking to some moff.

Han couldn’t help but grin at the kid’s obvious discomfort. “Don’t worry, Luke. You were just doing your royal duty, right? Gotta keep the Empress happy or the galaxy might break out in another civil war, ya know?”

Luke groaned. “Han…”

“I don’t blame you, kid; if I had your job I’d be smiling just as much.”

“Han, you’re a stay-at-home dad.”

Han waved his hand. “That’s not important! I bet she’s wearing one of those corset things under that dress, isn’t she?”

“I am not going to answer that question…”

“I remember the first time I saw your sister in one of those. Man she looked gorgeous—”

“Too much information, Han!”

“Right.” Han slapped Luke on the back. “Just let me give you a piece of advice, kid—ask Inga to get the kind with the hooks. They’re easier to rip open.”

Luke’s face turned beet red. “Um. Right. Sure.”

Han patted Luke on the shoulder one more time, then turned to leave. “Oh, one more thing!” He turned back to his brother-in-law and leaned in conspiratorially. “Next time something like this happens…make sure you check your fly before leaving the Palace.”

Well, if we're honest, we realized that we probably placed this too early in our doc. LOL. So this is probably a little later on. We've established enough of the universe to be fluid now. Right? ;)

Thank you! Han is just too much fun to write.

LOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love, love, love, love this one. I love Han making Luke there at the end... or was the Consort really unzipped? haahahahahaha Mara's hands were busy wandering in the limo.

I love Han's voice here. You write him so well. And you know that he would love to make Luke blush... and Mara, too. LOL!!!!!

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Was he unzipped, or wasn't he? That's for Luke to know and us to speculate. :D

Thank you! :)

That's hilarious! Best - last - sentence - ever. :D

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much! :)

Hehehehehehe. Oh Farmboy. He truly is the worst at making excuses on why he is late. And the last like just about made me fall off the chair, laughing. They totally had more fun in the limo (poor Serge).

Thank you for the humor today... the EC readers are going to need it for my semi-angst tomorrow. BWMUHAHAHA!

*the last line NOT like.

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Hehe, they probably did. They just can't get enough of each other. :D

Too funny! Of course Han wouldn't miss an opportunity to tease Luke. But at least he gave Luke good advice too. ;)

How far down the timeline is this?

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Probably two or three years. We figured that Han and Leia probably had kids early on, while Luke and Mara waited a while. Well, MARA waited a while, Luke just went along with whatever she wanted. ;)

Hahaha! Han just can't help himself around those two)))))Love him)

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Yes, he's great! :D Thanks!

ROFL! Han lives to tease.

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

You bet he does. You know he has the kids come up to Uncle Luke later on and ask him embarrassing questions.

[valeria057.livejournal.com]

This is definitely my favourite)))

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Awww, thanks! :)

He's such a Man! LOL
And unfair by pulling the "your sister in corest" card - but who ever said things are fair? ;-P

Adorable Han &Luke moment and adorable viggie!!!

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Thank you!! I love writing Han. And he loves teasing Luke and Mara. :)

[rarobin.livejournal.com]

Hahahaha, how fun. I adore Han and their banter. It would be amazing and horrible at the same time to have him as brother-in-law I imagine.

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Haha, that's probably true! You laugh when he makes fun of everyone else and groan when he turns his attention on you. :)

[jedi-lover88.livejournal.com]

Stang...you gotta love Han. He probably would say the same thing to Mara and not worry about being put to death. He is just so cocky. And the fact that Luke didn't zip up his pants is priceless. Love it!

[jedimara77.livejournal.com]

Yes, Han says whatever he wants and doesn't care. :D And Luke was preoccupied. ;)
