Third Floor Common Room [afternoon]

[tatooine_doofus]

Luke was not sulking about the fortune he'd heard earlier.

Really.

He was just in the common room eating an entire bag of chips and watching mindless television because he felt like it.

Yup.

The cookies were out of the counter and noticeably untouched. John had made cookies less appealing for the moment.

[OOC: It's a common room!]

Coming back from the park, Jaina was going to just go back to her room, but hey, she had limited time with Luke left. "Hey," she greeted him.

[tatooine_doofus]

"Hey," he said, still sulking a little. "Did you meet that crackpot in the park?"

[solo_sword]

"You mean the mysterious fortuneteller that just randomly showed up? Yeah," she said. "Didn't hear anything good, huh?"

[tatooine_doofus]

"I'm apparently going to take a break from my exciting rancor pit cleaning career to marry your master," Luke said, rolling his eyes. "That'll happen."

[solo_sword]

Guess which part she was going to ignore. "Rancor pit cleaning, huh?" she repeated, trying not to giggle.

[tatooine_doofus]

"Yeah," Luke said. "Guess the Jedi thing doesn't work out so well. What'd she tell you?"

[solo_sword]

She hadn't planned on mentioning the big thing, but hey, if it wasn't already obvious the woman didn't have any idea what she was talking about... "Apparently I'm running an Empire from Fandom. Or I'm Empress of Fandom. She wasn't too clear."

Luke burst out laughing. "If you start building a giant weapon, then I'll get nervous," he teased.

[solo_sword]

"With six kids. I wonder how I have the time for them with all the reigning I'm doing," she added.

[tatooine_doofus]

"Get Threepio to do it?" Luke suggested.

[solo_sword]

"That's what happened to me, and look how I turned out. Future Empress and all," she pointed out.

[tatooine_doofus]

"Excellent point," Luke said, laughing. "Were you ruling alone, or did you have help?"

[solo_sword]

"According to her, I marry John. I can't wait till office hours," she admitted.

[tatooine_doofus]

"How many times do you think his head will spin around?" he asked.

[solo_sword]

"At least three, I think," she said. "I'm wondering how high-pitched the What? will get."

[tatooine_doofus]

"If I can hear it from my room, I'll buy you a glass of really good Corellian whiskey," he promised.
