    Summary

    “Are you the Jedi?” the Mandalorian asked, his helmet tilting in assessment. Mandalore’s sun glinted brightly off the beskar, making the armor almost glow. Luke was surprised to realize how well that image complemented the man’s muted Force signature.

    “Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight,” Luke bowed, remembering his manners, “On behalf of the Council, we were honored to receive your invitation.”

    -
    Mandalore requests a teacher for their growing population of Force-sensitives and the Jedi Council sends Luke.

    Summary

    Din Djarin has been travelling between Tatooine and Grogu long enough to start noticing a few things about Boba Fett and Luke Skywalker. He isn’t sure what happened between them but he’s starting to piece the rough edges of it together; and every new thing he uncovers makes the picture it’s forming looks less like hatred and a lot more like something else entirely.

    Luke used to work for Peli Motto between seasons. Boba used to be a customer, perhaps too frequently. These facts are completely unrelated.

    Summary

    As it turns out, no one ever taught Luke how to tie a little green baby to his back one-handed, but Luke thinks he's pretty gods-damned good at problem-solving under pressure, thank you, and the baby is at least semi-cooperative. When he's sure the kid is strapped in as tight as he can get, Luke pauses, and reaches back. His fingers graze the wide point of the baby's fuzzy ear. "Well, kid," says Luke, and his voice is a little rough, but not bad, all things considered. "Carrying you on my back while getting the absolute banthashit kicked out of me, at least this feels familiar."

    The baby coos in his ear, and then kicks him hard in the kidney. Yoda used to do the exact same thing. Somehow, it's a lot more endearing now.

    Or: Luke Skywalker solves a number of life-or-death problems, makes some new friends, falls abruptly in love, and gets shot into space, all in the same day.

    Summary

    You learned the rules before you could speak, before you could walk, before the desert had the chance to take anything from you but those first few months of your life. There were two—always two, on Tatooine, for the suns, for the sand and the sky. First: the desert will kill you if you let it. Second: you are never alone on the sands.
