While I sure do love having my precious moments spread around the ship like an episode of Dawson's Creek, I can't help but think most of you aren't making the best of this - admittedly awful - situation. Sure, it sucks, but it has its perks.

Which is to say: nyah, nyah, guess which one of us got to fly the Millennium Falcon?

[ Also Chewbacca is dead, but he's not letting it harsh his vibe. Here's to fulfilling boyhood dreams. ]

[Jaina snorts then smirks at him. Is she a touched worried about what might be said? Yes. Is she going to voice that fact? Most definitely not. She'll stick with appearing nonchalant and deal with the fallout, if any, later.]

When my dad shoots you, you brought it on yourself.

[ Casey is a little sheepish, because hey, they aren't his memories. But on the other hand, they've made a frankly awful month a lot better for a guy who has all the secrets, and no way to keep any of them. ]

I'm already on his hit list, to tell you the truth. I've been pretending it's no big deal, but you're right. He's going to kill me.

[ And for just a day Han Solo was his dad. Frigging A! ]

[theswordofthejedi]

[A chuckle.]

Nah, he won't kill you. He might maim you a little but there's at least a seventy percent chance he'll let you live. [A pause then, only partially teasingly.] Unless you start bad-mouthing the Falcon. Then you're a goner because if he doesn't get to you, I will.

Are you kidding? Best thing I've ever flown. The TIE fighter wasn't bad, either.

It helps that you're a damn good pilot.

[Jaina might not be one to fish for compliments but she likes them when she receives them. Her grin shows as much.]

Yeah, I am pretty good, huh? I'd say it's a gift but [a beat] actually, no, that's it. It's a gift. [Jaina having an ego? Never.

After a second, she does grow a touch somber.]

Just, you know, be careful what you talk about with some people on board. [Like her parents. Talk to your friends about things all you want but her parents are practically infants and don't need to know stuff yet.]

[leaps]

What's so great about the Millennium Falcon?

[ IT'S SURE NOT BETTER THAN HIS BABY DON'T EVEN ]

[sugarbear]

Don't let Solo hear you say that.

[ Sulu don't you know anything? ]

Look, the Enterprise is great and shiny and stuff, but space travel is about grit, not sleek supercar spaceships with polished exteriors and plump lounge fittings. Nobody goes into space to be comfortable.

[leaps]

He's aware of my opinions.

[ this is an ongoing debate casey, you don't understand. ]

Nothing's plump. It's outfitted for discovery, not for black market trade.

GENTLY TJ LET ME KNOW IF THIS ISN'T OKAY

[carbonite]

Hey, hey, hey - who said anything about black market trade.

NO IT'S UNACCEPTABLE.

[leaps]

Are you telling me your interests lie in exploration and discovery?

[sugarbear]

[ Casey suddenly breaks into a grin. ]

You mean you two have been arguing about this for a while? That's even better.

[leaps]

Better how?

Why is the Millenium Falcon so special?

[Guess what didn't make it into space somehow...]

[sugarbear]

You people don't know anything about anything, do you?

[ God how do you live without Star Wars? Everything is so tiring when nobody knows when you're talking about. ]

Alright, let's put it in a way you might understand. You know how Serenity is a piece of flying go se and we all know it? Well, just imagine that she had laser canons and a hyperdrive that usually worked first time, and better yet, she didn't fall apart and leave you to suffocate in the middle of nowhere for no reason at all.

Now wouldn't you love to fly a ship like that?

Re: Video

[dino_zarf]

Go se? You are powerful lucky Kaylee isn't aboard to hear that. Wouldn't say it again though. She might just leap across dimensions or what not to throttle you.

Video

[sugarbear]

Mmph. What Kaylee doesn't know won't hurt her. You can't pretend you don't secretly agree with me, anyway.

Re: Video

[dino_zarf]

Serenity is a damn fine ship, 'specially with how Kaylee keeps her running.

[Hasn't anyone ever told you not to insult a man's ship?]

(1/???)

[carbonite]

What did you say about the Millennium Falcon?

(2/????)

[carbonite]

Don't spread lies, buddy, no one likes it.

[carbonite]

We both know that the only way you're touching my ship to fly it is that I have gone out of my freaking mind and I'm delirious enough to think you're me.

DONE.

[carbonite]

And since you're obviously not me, and I am obviously not delirious, you're going to have to understand that it is impossible for you to even touch my ship.

[no reply 1/2]

[sugarbear]

[ Quick, get in the car! It's Han Solo!

Casey considers not replying for a moment because these conversations usually go so well, but what has he got to be afraid of, really? It's a memory, that's all. It's not like he actually had his paws all over Han Solo's wife the Falcon. ]

[sugarbear]

It's fine, you can untwist your panties. It's not like they were my memories. I'm pretty sure I'd remember if I'd actually flown your precious baby.

[ Flying his precious baby. Oh, the irony of that statement. ]

[carbonite]

Really, tell me who they are so that I can personally wring their neck.

The only reason why you're safe is that I find your opinions on the Millennium Falcon interesting and I tend to agree with them.

[sugarbear]

I'm pretty sure you already know all the people who've been at the controls of the Falcon. And if you don't...well, I don't want to drop them in it.

[ Okay, so the second part-- ]

Well she's not just any Corellian Freighter.
