Dealing With Loss [Friday, October 1, after classes]
When the students came into the room, they would see Ben and Anakin talking quietly with an older blond man who resembled them both rather closely.
Ben turned around and smiled at the assembled group. "Hey. I'm betting the next few days might be pretty tough on a lot of you," he began, "which is why I want you all to meet my dad." He waved his hand towards the older man. "This is Luke Skywalker, the Grand Master of the Jedi and, even if this totally blows all of my teenaged disdain out the airlock, a pretty astral listener."
Luke gave his son a slightly bemused look. "Thank you, Ben."
Ben ran his hands through his hair. "So, yeah. I don't want any of you to feel alone on this weekend where we kind of get beat over the head with family time." He smiled. "So you can borrow my dad." He looked around at the rest of the students. "Anyone got something they need to talk about?"
