Second floor common room [morning]

[momslilassassin]

Ben hadn't exactly been getting a lot of sleep these days, so he finally gave up on trying and wandered into the common room barefoot in search of coffee and something other than the list of Fandom students and alumni who hadn't made it back to the island by yesterday evening to keep his mind busy.

He flipped the television on...and found that it was showing a gremlin-bite tape of his father and Gavin Kriffing Darklighter thinking they were gay German magicians.

"Poor Artoo," Ben murmured, a small smile playing across his lips.

This was certainly distracting, but Ben might not be so pleased the next time a Skywalker gremlin bite came onto the screen.

"Please make sure he comes back dressed in all-leather," Peter said, snickering. "I need this. I beg you."

"I'll do my best," Ben promised, while on the television screen, floated serenely by.

Merry Christmas, Peter.

... Peter stared at the television.

"This is the gift that keeps on giving," he said, awestruck.

"Kill me," Ben whimpered, sliding down in to the sofa.

"Sorry, kid," Peter said merrily. "Need me to carry you back to sea?"

"Think I'll pass," Ben mumbled. "Kriff, that was so long ago."
