[ if you'd asked bodhi where he'd see himself after the war, he's not sure what he would have said. having grown up on jedha, under the shadow of the empire for most of his life, peace time always seemed so far off. but somehow he'd survived scarif, and the rest of the war to see it. not without scars, but alive.
while settling down and starting a family had been a hope of his, the fact that's a reality now is... something. luke is the last jedi, a hero of the war, sure, but he's also a wonderful husband, and sweet and loving father and bodhi couldn't be happier for the life they've built together.
he never thought he deserved anything like this, before. there are still times where he feels like it's a dream. thank the force for luke, offering support to bodhi when it's difficult just as bodhi does for him. they're a good fit, and it seemed right to adopt. jedha might be gone, but it's people live on and it only took one look at the twins to know.
in the meantime he's taken up some jobs, mostly mechanic work, things he can do at his own pace and also be home more to stay with the family. luke will have to eventually start his jedi temple, but not before he's ready.
bodhi is used to artoo's foul language and banters good naturedly as he works on fixing an internal jam, he hears luke leave the room at some point and return a few short moment with their son. he looks up, setting his tool down and giving artoo the all clear, taking rani and sitting him on his lap. ] Hello. Did you have a good sleep?
[ he brushes a hand over the unruly curls, ruffled with sleep, pressing a kiss to the top of his head before looking to luke. ]
All good dreams, [ luke answers for the still-sleepy child curled on bodhi's lap, reaching out to tweak little toes fondly. rani giggles a little, then yawns, pushing his face into bodhi's chest, free hand curling in his shirt.
luke, naturally, looks as utterly smitten as he does every time he looks at their children, soft and happy and so very grateful. jedi aren't supposed to have children, after all, or personal attachments, but.. here he is, and here they are.
he leans in, giving his husband a quick, adoring kiss over the top of rani's head, reaching up as he does so to carefully push a few loose strands of hair behind the older man's ear. ] I think Rani's just learned that if he wakes up before his sister, he gets Baba and Daddy to himself for a little while.
