(no subject)
Characters: Ben (marrymarajade ) and OPEN, including to 4th-wallers! But specifically Luke (killukeskywalkr ).
Date/Time: Any time from July 20-23rd. ...Very backdated, due to LJ and Joys collaborating in fail. Sorry.
Location: Any of the more trafficked islands (Wellspring, the Bazaar, Captain Planet, Access Point) or the Second Floor.
Rating: Variable
Summary: Ben adjusts to his price, and to being back.
------
It was strange, being... being back. Ben could barely remember what it was like to be part of the Force - he'd tried quantifying it to himself, but couldn't get very far. He did feel like it had changed him, but he wasn't sure just how, or if it was permanent. Part of him longed almost painfully to go back to it, because what he had now was so much less than that had been, but he knew he had to keep on living.
Leia was here now, even if she was calling herself Alderaan. Something about that was unsettling, wrong... but it was so good to see her. Just knowing she was there eased the ache. Ben supposed it was a sort of counterbalance to coming back blind - no great ill without some good, as the saying went.
And being blind was an ill, all right. "Sight" through the Force was very different, and though he was fairly sure that he could manage, he had a long ways to go. He wanted to push the limits of what he already knew, and by going out of the house often, sometimes without company, he could do that.
