The park [Friday afternoon]

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory had heard a little about what had been going on on the island.

Well, okay. She'd heard that Anakin's first wife was visiting. The dead one. The dead mother of Rory's stepchildren, who were older than Rory herself in one of the timelines to choose from.

So, you know. Typical Skywalker fun.

But Rory herself, as much as she wanted to hide at home and not meet Padmé, was drawn to the island. She took Juliet with her, and got an iced coffee from the Perk before settling in the park. As much as she wanted to meet the first Mrs. Skywalker -- the one who had been married to Anakin, since she'd known an unmarried Padmé before -- her nerves kept her stalling a bit. She fiddled with Juliet's shade on her stroller, she checked her text messages, she even wrote an email to her mother on her phone.

Because honestly, Rory didn't even know where to look. But she didn't want to say she hadn't tried at all, either.

[yeah, if you didn't guess, Rory's going to run into someone. But it's open for anyone who wants to run into Rory and the baby, or Padmé!]

Padmé had been doing some exploring on her own, but found herself being drawn back to the park.

She spotted the young woman with the baby and smiled. "I'm not interrupting, am I?"

Luke, having received Leia's message, managed to get to Fandom as quickly as the X-Wing could get there (and having tweaked it personally, that was pretty quick), parked on the beach and made his way into town.

He stopped at the edge of the park at the two familiar figures, then the third he'd seen only in holos and dreams.

He forgot how to breathe.
