[ It'd be good for him, though Ben isn't putting all of those eggs in one basket anyway. ]
I appreciate it
He's a good man underneath the prickly exterior
[ Is it hard to say that now, considering everything he'd been through these long years past? Truthfully, no. And perhaps that makes him the fool but Anakin and Vader are two very different people in his mind.

What's he done now?
no subject
I would not say he has done anything of note.
( what's a little attempted force choking between ... crewmates? )
He is terribly protective of you, isn't he?
no subject
Hmm
Yes I suppose that's an accurate assessment
[ Which makes him wonder how it all went so, so wrong. ]
Has he said something to you then?
Tried anything?
no subject
It is nothing of that nature. He has been at best mildly impertinent.
Is he aware I saw your memories?
no subject
My former pupil can be very spirited and I've come to expect such things from him, is all
But no he isn't aware
[ He'd be mad jelly if he knew, for one thing. ]
no subject
How experienced would you say he is with situations like our current mission?
no subject
[ He might need a few more specifics. ]
no subject
( you know. the murder. )
no subject
We haven't spoken recently
But I can tell you that unless he finds a reason to be invested in the people and their goals he likely won't take active part in any of it
no subject
He will learn very quickly that neutrality is nearly impossible given our goals, I suppose.
( ah, the feckless days of youth. we are ignoring that he is not so very far removed from similar behaviour, okay. )
I will do my best to ensure he does not come to harm.

They have to be. ]

( ha ha, haha... ha. )
May I ask how long you've known him?
sweet jesus this is old, just ignore if its too crusty i will not be offended
I raised him as though he were my own brother
