Sorry it took so long to get back to this; flu going around the dorm. Woe.
I might be back home by now.
Okay, weird answer. Hear me out, though. There's a reason for everything that the Force wills, and the Force willed me here. (And everyone else says people come to the bar for a reason, so that's not just my imagination.) And I think the initial reason had a lot to do with my family needed to make our peace with each other. I think, at first, that's the reason I couldn't leave. But I've made peace with everyone, and I still can't leave. The reasons right now are complicated, but for a long while, I think it was because of what was building between me and Val. If I hadn't met her, then one of those times I tried opening the front door, it would have worked.

I wish I could spend all my time with Val. But people seem to make a point of reminding me that I've got responsibilities back home, too. If I'm going to rebuild the Jedi Order, I need to be much more in touch with the Force than I am now. I spend a lot of time outside, either meditating or exercising. I don't know when I'll be able to go home, but when I do, I want to be ready.
(Also, if I spent all the time I want to with Val, she'd get sick of me.)

There wasn't really anyone there, but someone definitely gave me blankets and drinks while I was sick. I'm guessing the system for that is like the Bar here, but even more advanced, so it can give you what you need without you asking it.
Furniture and stuff was a lot like here... big bar, a few tables, a lot of booths around the walls, refreshers around a corner. There was a little area with couches and vidscreens, too, which is where I slept, since the couches were longer than the benches at the booths. The food was pretty much all burgers, but it did make burgers out of lots of different meats, so I tried everything. (A word of advice: Bantha burgers, yes. Tauntaun burgers, no.) I was kept pretty well supplied with drinks, too -- lots of water and juice and tea. It kept giving me sick-person drinks even after I started feeling better, too. I think it didn't believe me.
[ooc: Val is staying in her nice character box, because she could ask whatever she wants to anyway, so I fear you get an over-logical bohemian]
Um. hi. So, you have a girl in the bar. How does that work? You're a Jedi from another world than she is, right? How does that work? Jedi aren't supposed to marry, and, well, can she go back home with you?
Sorry about taking so long to get back to this; flu going around the dorm.
Well... yeah. Jedi aren't supposed to marry. But at this point, I'm the only one left, and I didn't say I would rebuild the Jedi Order exactly as it was. After all, the Jedi Order as it was failed. I don't see any reason why the rules can't change, and I hope none of the other Jedi in the bar think I should follow the old rules.
And I hope she can go home with me. We've talked a lot about when I bring her home. We haven't really talked about if. If she can't go home with me, then either I'll try to go to her world or we'll stay in the bar. I won't go home without her. But if she can go home with me, I think it'll be all right. She knows a lot about my world from having seen those holovids, and I come from such a remote planet that it won't be a stretch for me to tell people that she's someone I knew growing up.

Luke says thank you for not letting Leia at him.
