[the_child]

WHO: Grogu and YOU
WHERE: All over Tembra
WHAT: Catching up with friends and reconnecting with The Force
WHEN: post Hero City, throughout the rest of the month of June.
WARNINGS: None



Closed to Din

Since everything in Tembra got back to normal, Grogu has been worried about Din. Din had such a different life in that other world... and he showed his face. That had to bother him. He'd mostly left him alone for the first couple of days. But his concern grows and he seeks him out.

When he finds him, he walks over and makes a soft noise, reaching out to touch his leg. Are you okay, Dad?

Friends!

The past month had been a lot for everyone. Grogu might not be able to talk to people like others. At least, not in a way that most could understand, but he still wants to make sure his friends are okay. It just takes him longer to get to people... he's got little legs! If you're a friend, he's going to try to seek you out somewhere! At some point, a little green Jedi will come walking over, looking up with his giant eyes to see if you're okay.

Out and about

Other than checking in with people, he's going to be spending his time either chilling at the Deep End watching (and occasionally eating) the fish, trying to help with cleaning the Jedi Temple in progress, meditating by the fountain, or chasing some small critter... possibly to eat it.

((ooc: Out and About is also a wildcard. Hit him up wherever!))

Yeah, this alternate reality left everyone with a lot to process. Both good and bad.
Hell, some like Billy, had it worse.

It's funny how he fits so well, almost like he was made to be there. Din pauses when the hand touches his faceplate. Look, you're his kid. He worries about you. But he does relent with a sigh.

"Been changing the way I did things since Coruscant. Never thought it would be like that, though."

There are a lot of confused and confusing feelings around Temba these days. So much happened and so many people are hurting.

His ears lower. You don't regret how things have changed, do you, Dad?

I know why they did it in the show, but you can't tell me he doesn't wear a hood on his head, lol.

There really are. Hopefully things will work out, when people figure stuff out, and things settle back down. They've all had shock. It just needs to wear off. His life in the city had been almost the opposite of his real one. He'd still been an orphan, but other than that, he'd grown up in a more or less normal life.

"Then again." Speaking of things that changed, after a quick surroundings check, he reached a hand up and with a hiss of air release, slid the helmet off, leaving just the black hood on his head. "...I've not been this happy. In a long time." He's more relaxed here, Not having to constantly look over his shoulder. Be wary of him, or Grogu, being hunted. There were still dangers in Temba. But not like back home. He tilts his head at the droopy ears, and sets the helmet down.

"Don't worry, ad'ika. You were one of the highlights in that city." Even if it was strange. Fighting crime with the kid had been...almost like home again. It had just been the two of them. No Jedi or Jedi training. Just the Hunter and his kid. "Part of me wishes I could still hear ya." Even if it had been one sided. Hearing Grogu's 'voice' had been interesting, and something he remembers fondly.

Grogu watched as Din removed his helmet. It as still so new to him, it was something special. He knows how much it means for his Dad to do this, and treats it with the respect it deserves.

Once his face is revealed, Grogu smiles and reaches out a hand to touch his cheek. Being with him like that was the best part of the city for him, too. It meant a lot for him to be able to talk to Din, to actually tell him how he felt and what he was thinking. Maybe someday he'd be able to do so again. But for now he'd have to settle for a light touch and the happiness in his eyes.
