Summary
For many years, C-3PO has served as the unofficial housekeeper to Jabba's Palace. Droids don't exactly last long within these walls, and those that do aren't much for friendly conversation. Loneliness and boredom have long since seeped their way under C-3PO's plating, not unlike the sands of Tatooine itself, but with the introduction of a new droid to the master's collection, everything is turned upside down.

Summary
“So. There’s also something else I wanted to talk to you both about – well, all of the family do, really,” the Joxling said. “We’d love you to come to the wedding. But um…”
She trailed off. Both men stared at her blankly. Oh dear. She had been rather hoping they would connect the dots themselves, but it seemed that wasn’t going to be happening.
“Well,” she said. “It’s just. It is on the mainland. And we think it might be…difficult for you to get back.”
There was a wary glint in Moominmorfar’s eyes, and he pressed his ears back against his skull. Before he could say anything, however, Snufkinmorfar interrupted:
“Now what would make you say that? Is there a squall on the way?”
“No, no, it’s just…” she said, swallowing. “You’re both getting on in years, and the journey isn’t easy. And – you know. We worry about you out here by yourselves.”
“Worry about us?” said Snufkinmorfar with a careless laugh. “We’re your grandparents. I believe we’re meant to be doing the worrying.”

The year is 2016, and Snufkin and Moomintroll return to the Valley for the first time in a long while.Bookmarked by Tallestred

Summary

Summary
YOU — You fidget with your fingers for a moment, and then look back at him. “Are you okay, Kim?”
PERCEPTION [Easy: Success] — He blinks twice, surprised. Then he looks away, turning his gaze to the violet and blue sky.
EMPATHY [Medium: Success] — He feels uncomfortable, sometimes, having such raw concern and sincerity pouring out from you with only him as recipient. You’re… intense, on a good day.
KIM KITSURAGI — “I’m alright,” he says. His fingers twitch, like he’s itching for a cigarette. “It’s been… a long week.”
ELECTROCHEMISTRY [Trivial: Failure] — Oh, it’s been long, and it’s been hard. Makes you itch for the neck of a bottle in your hand, neurotransmitters firing wild, fireworks behind your eyes.
(or; Kim has a rough week. Harry helps, in his own way.)

Summary
C-3PO supposed it could be worse.
If he were organic, he'd probably be experiencing what they called "pre-wedding jitters".
