Rubbing his hand through Kenobi’s hair, Skywalker smiled wryly at
Cana. “I apologize for this. Most of Obi-Wan’s time goes into
therapy and recovery if we’re being honest so he still rests a lot
when he can. The time he doesn’t do therapy or play with the kids
are used for naps.” He confessed.

Lifting her hands, Cana shook her head with a warm smile. “Please,
don’t apologize. We understand that Master Kenobi saved many lives
during the attack Palpatine unlawfully initiated on the temple,
people are fond of both Jedi and clones and are grateful that he did.
Now we only wish to know that he will recover since he managed to
wake.” She peered at the bundle in Skywalker’s mech arm. “And
to know about your new treasures.” She confessed.

Skywalker laughed faintly, shifting a bit to glance between his husbands
head on his lap and the baby in his arm. “Treasures are a good word for
them I guess.” He offered with warmth, giving his chubby little one
a gentle nuzzle. “They’re names are Leia and Luke Amidala and this is Leia but
that’s all I’m going to say.” Anakin grinned wryly.

Cana nodded, understanding that for such prominent parents, they
wanted to give their kids privacy.

So she changed subjects. “Will you be retaking the mantle as Jedi
again or is it now the parental role you are staying in?” She
questioned.

Skywalker grinned at that. “I’m going to be happy as a stay at home
dad. Padme is still fighting for the rights of the galaxy and I’m
happy to give her the time and space to do that while I look after
the kids in the meantime but that doesn’t mean she’s not here.”
He looked up as the door to the fresher opened and the Senator
stepped in with the second twin.

“I’m sorry about that, Luke really needed a diaper change.” The
Senator offered tiredly, smiling at them as she rejoined them on the
couch. There was a little milky splosh the collar of her deep green
dress that she didn’t seem to have noticed but Luke seemed quite
happy to squirm in his blanket, looking around with big blue eyes.

Cana gestured for her camera crew to get a good shot of that.
“Please, don’t apologize Senator, family comes first.”

Amidala smiled at that before reaching out and gently stroking her
free fingers into the copper hair of her second husband. “Yes…yes
they do.”

Kenobi opted to open his eyes too at that moment, yawning before
focusing on the lady senator with half lidded eyes.

Drowsy and content, he was a far cry from the exhausted General they
had seen on the first episode as he slowly reached up to brush his
fingertips over Amidala’s cheek in return with a smile on his gaunt
face as Amidala continued slowly scratching her fingers against his
scalp.

It was a beautiful thing if Cana was honest

“So that is it then?” Cana questioned the circle of Jedi
master’s. “The Jedi withdraw back to their temple? War’s over
and done?” She smiled.

“Temporarily at least.” Mace offered, sitting up slowly while
waving his mech hand carefully. “We’ve lost some promient
members, we’re all sore and tired and while we will still do our
duty we…” He looked around the room before looking back. “We
need a break.”

Shaak spoke up, her hologram flickering a bit from where she was
stationed on Kamino still. “We will still do our duty, we will help
the clones settle into a life as they choose it and do recovery and
we shall start recovery and relief efforts but…as master Windu
says, we need a break. So many of us are injured or dead.” She
sighed.

Yoda tapped his cane on his chair, the camera focusing on him. “Much
torment the Order and the Galaxy has gone through, perhaps the Senate
help us all now will. Warriors we were never designed to be though
fight we can.” He offered, croaking a bit before his ears fell.
“Agree with the young I do, much death and injury we have
experienced in short time. Many bonded masters and padawans broken
apart have been. Tired we are… reforms we need to consider.” He
looked around the room.

“Reforms?” Cana questioned in surprise.

She hadn’t gotten the feeling that the Order changed lightly but…
three years of war could not be considered lightly at all.

“Internal this will be.” Yoda smiled to her. “To worry the rest
of the galaxy need not, Jedi we will still be, conduct ourselves
properly we will… but perhaps…” He seemed to hesitate.

The rest of the council seemed to hold their breath.

“Perhaps… unselfish love…not such a bad thing will be.” Yoda
finished.

Cana stared at him.

There were so many implication in that.

So many things it could mean, but perhaps… eventually… Knight
Skywalker and Master Kenobi would one day again walk these halls.

“…Thank you master Jedi, for allowing us into your home and your
lives.” She whispered.

As one, all the master’s stood and bowed to her.

“Welcome, the galaxy will always be.” Depa offered with quiet
warmth.

“We are Jedi, and now the galaxy knows who we are. It is us who
should thank you.” Plo continued.

“From the depth of our hearts, thank you Mistress Cana.” Kit
finished and Cana could feel the blood rush to her face as her wings
fluttered hard as the rest of the masters echoed his statement.

Stars light, what people the Jedi were.
