imagine luke with a barista! gf . . . the two of you likely would have met in the shop where you work, one morning when he’s rushing to get to arena for practice but needs his caffeine fix to keep him from falling asleep on his skates. from the moment he sees you behind the counter, he’s entranced by your smile and your sweet voice when you ask for his order, so much so that he almost doesn’t remember what he came into the shop wanting to get. after you’ve made his coffee and given it to him, he could swear that it’s the best drink he’s ever had in his life, if only because it was made by the angel in front of him. he makes sure to compliment you on the drink, too, and does a little internal happy dance when you blush slightly and thank him. he also promises to be back at the coffee shop the next day — mainly to see you again, though he leaves that part out — and he definitely does come back, day after day whenever he can, and with every day and every coffee you make him the two of you get to know each other better and make more of a connection, until finally luke works up the nerve to ask you out. the question and confession of his feelings comes out stuttered and a bit awkward, with none of the confidence he showcases on the ice, but he barely suppresses a whoop of excitement when you still smile and say yes — and the rest is sort of history from there.
as much as you love your job, you love luke even more and want to be there to support him, so you make an effort to go to all the games you can, always making sure to wear luke’s jersey number and cheer as loud as you possibly can. you also bring coffee to the team and some of the staff during home games or send it along with for morning practices, which always makes the proudest smile break out on luke’s face when everyone comments on how good it is. and if the shop you work at happens to offer baked goods as well, you’re definitely in favor of giving luke, jack, and the whole team discounts on the cookies and brownies in your display case whenever they come into the shop, and you’ll also typically send luke into the locker room with a box or two of sweets that are just a day old, the stuff the shop would have thrown out anyway that’s still perfectly good to eat.
once you and luke start spending more and more time at each other’s apartments, you are also definitely put in charge of making all the coffee. the machine in luke and jack’s place isn’t at all the same kind as the ones you work with, so whatever coffee you make never tastes the same as what you make for a living, but luke still insists that every cup of coffee you’ve ever made him tastes like liquid gold. those are some of your favorite moments with him, standing in his kitchen in the early morning trying to teach him to make foam art or exactly the proper amount of milk for a latte, watching him smiling at you in the golden morning light through the steam rising from your cups, and giving him kisses that, no matter how bitter the coffee might make them taste, are always the sweetest things to ever hit your lips.
just imagine luke, who is so incredibly grateful to whatever higher powers that might be that he went into your coffee shop that morning, because it wound up bringing an absolute angel into his life — one who not only makes the greatest coffee he’s ever had, but who has the most beautiful smile he’s ever seen and the sweetest laugh he’s ever heard, and who loves him with a gentle intensity that sometimes takes his breath away. and he loves you, too, more than he ever imagined loving anyone.

Could i request luke skywalker with a gn! Kid that he rescues. The kid starts to see him as a parental figure? All platonic of course. The kid could be around like 12 or 13. I’d like if the reader/kid could be a togruta but I don’t mind if you don’t do that!
-🧛
ahhhh, thank you so much for making the first official request on my newly revamped blog !! luke is my absolute beloved, so this was a great request to get &lt;3 i really hope you like these headcanons !!
✩⡱ headcanons: luke skywalker x gn!child!togruta!reader !
Tumblr media Tumblr media
— you are one of the first young force users luke manages to recruit for his new jedi order after the empire's defeat - even if he doesn't actually mean to find you.
— during his quest to find children blessed with the force around the galaxy, the togruta's home planet of shili is one of his first stops, and it's there he finds you. you're an orphan with nowhere to go and no one to take you in, stealing what you can to be able to afford food and making your home in an abandoned warehouse in the city, all the while trying to hide the odd ability to move things with your mind you've always had - the ability your parents, when they were alive, always told you you had to hide for fear of the empire coming after you.
— but your parents are gone now, and the warnings they gave you when you were younger aren't enough to stop you from trying to steal luke's lightsaber as he walks down the street by levitating away from him. of course, it doesn't quite work, as luke can sense your use of the force, and the lightsaber doesn't even make it all the way out of its holster before luke is grabbing it out of the air and turning to lock eyes with you, somehow knowing exactly where you are despite the fact that you've hidden yourself in the shadows of an alley.
— you're absolutely terrified you're about to be beaten or hauled off to prison, but to your surprise, all this strange man asks you is how long you've been able to do things like that, and if you're able to do other things, like sensing a particular air around people or being able to influence people's minds to be more agreeable with what you want.
— when he tells you that he understands, that he can do that as well, and that if you would like to learn how to develop these abilities, you can come with him and be a part of the new jedi order, you finally realize who he is: luke skywalker, the man who saved the galaxy from the empire's rule and, though he's clearly not the last remaining force user, the last remaining jedi.
— you're completely shocked that the savior of the galaxy is even interacting with you, a togruta orphan thief, much less that he's saying you have special powers and offering to train you as a jedi. but what can you do but accept? this may be your only chance to get off the streets of shili, your only chance to actually make something of yourself.
— by the end of the day, you and luke have boarded his ship and are flying away from the only home you've ever known, the place where you were born and where you lost your parents to sickness, where you had to scrounge in the back alleys and steal and fight for scraps to survive.
— shili will always hold a lot of memories for you, both good and painful, but you find that you're happy to be leaving it behind, to start embracing your purpose as a force user and becoming one of the galaxy's new jedi saviors.
— it isn't long before the two of you have been to illum to get your kyber crystal, and before you know it, you have your very own lightsaber and are ready to officially begin your jedi training.
— it isn't the easiest process - much like luke's father, you've started your training much later than the younglings of old, but thankfully your species are one of the galaxy's strongest in the force, so it isn't long before your control and fighting skills have greatly improved.
— but even better than these newfound skills and control is the bond you start to develop with your master.
— luke isn't always the most patient teacher - unbeknownst to him, a skywalker trait - but he is understanding of your feelings and struggles, and completely dedicated to helping you become the best jedi you can be. even as the two of you continue to travel around looking for more students for his jedi school, luke's primary focus remains training you, the first padawan he's ever had.
— of course, luke has little idea of the jedi's former pattern of masters and padawans forming familial-like bonds, having only been trained for a short while by both obi-wan and yoda, so when he finds himself starting to see you as something of his child, to want to protect you and make sure you were always safe and happy, it comes as a pretty big shock... but not an unwelcome one.
— and over time, you start to see luke as a parental figure as well.
— he always does his best to take care of you and make you feel good about yourself, he always takes the time to talk to you and provide comfort if you need it, and though your situations aren't quite the same, he does understand being a child without parents, and he'll always stay up at night with you to talk if you're missing your parents more than usual.
— after you lost your parents, you'd given up hope of ever having a father again, but as time goes on, you start to feel like luke might be the closest thing you'll have to getting another one.
— but neither of you are quite ready to voice these feelings for a while - not until one night almost two years into your training, when the two of you are taking advantage of a quiet night on ossus to sit on the roof of the new jedi academy and watch the star-filled sky.
— the whole thing is incredibly calming, and you've already had a bit of a long day, so eventually, you lean against luke's side and rest your head on his shoulder, your lekku dangling over his shoulder, and with your filter crumbled into dust by the pull of sleep, you finally mumble the words you've been thinking for months now.
— "thank you, luke. for saving me, and for being my mentor, and for being my... my father."
— you drift off into the comforting darkness of sleep almost immediately after speaking, so you miss the shocked look luke gives you that eventually spreads into a soft, loving smile, and you especially miss the small kiss luke plants on top of your head, and the whispered words that, though he'll make sure to repeat them to you tomorrow morning, he feels he needs to say now.
— "you're welcome, padawan. and thank you for being my child."
