             𝙴𝙰𝚂𝚈 𝚃𝙾 𝙿𝚄𝚃 𝙰 𝙽𝙰𝙼𝙴 𝚃𝙾 𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝚃𝙾𝙽𝙴 𝙸𝙽 𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴’𝚂 𝚅𝙾𝙸𝙲𝙴: 𝙰𝙽𝙶𝙴𝚁 𝙵𝙾𝚁𝚃𝙸𝙵𝙸𝙴𝙳 𝚆𝙸𝚃𝙷 𝙸𝙽𝙲𝚁𝙴𝙳𝚄𝙻𝙸𝚃𝚈 , echoing the same righteous passion solo remembered from years past, when yavin 4’s rebel base thrummed with chaos and his looming debt to jabba took priority above all else, even as sky-blue eyes bore down on him, desperate to hold him accountable, to pin him in place.  an inexplicable emotion pressed up against his chest then, frighteningly close to his heart.
shrike, despicable and irredeemable bastard that he was, had a point when he spoke of camaraderie.  it was a transitory means of survival at best, a last-ditch effort taken up only during the direst of circumstances.  at worst, it was a burden heavy enough to put a man six feet under.  companionship was a luxury, not a necessity—that always danced on a precarious tightrope between desire and disillusionment.  han knew it was best to stay out of it all, and he’d kept his distance for years up until then, allowing no close involvements, nothing that could jeopardize independence in its most fundamental form.
those were the days when han solo was certain that his life belonged to him and he alone.
none of that changed when chewbacca came around, nor did it when han steered the ’falcon straight into the fray, shooting down the tie fighters hounding red-five.  it remained unaltered even when the kid all but leapt into his arms after destroying the death star, or when he damned the cowardice of those who would abandon a good man to die before plunging himself into the frozen desolate tundra of hoth.  it wasn’t until bespin, where all that he knew and would ever know came to an abrupt end, then emerging from carbonite, blind and helpless, that the seismic upheaval of change rocked his existence and flipped the world on its head.
solo had learned to weigh his battles since then, both the victories and the few crushing defeats.  told himself it was chewie who had blunted his acerbic corellian tongue, and it wasn’t at all because of a sun-kissed blond who cared for han solo like he was worth loads more than the bounty pinned to his head, or how those piercing blue eyes always looked up at han like he was — like he was a 𝑯𝑬𝑹𝑶.
han swallowed against that same growing tightness in his throat and settled luke’s gloved hand between them, gentle as his fingers coiled around warm synth-leather.
              ❝yeah, maybe,❞ he conceded at last. ❝y’know, the hospital they stashed me in felt off from the start.  nurses spilled that it’s ancient, from way back in the days of the old republic.  said they got some kind of system built in to ward off mystics…❞
Tumblr media
han shot a sidelong glance at the kid, noting an intricate mixture of emotions playing on his face—an indignant distinction tucked beneath a layer of contrition—before it vanished, smoothed away in an instant.  han wished he didn’t loathe seeing it.
❝kid, dampen down your power core, will ya?❞  yet his chuckle rang contrived, clipped by a hoarseness in his throat.  ❝look, m’sure it was an honest mistake.  someone frinked up somewhere down the line ’n now they’re as out of the loop as you.❞  it wouldn’t be surprising, considering the rebel’s entire communication network had been a tangled mess of outdated systems patched together with little more than wire and mesh tape.

The sudden wave of anger and bitterness took the younger male by surprise; despite his lack of direct contact with Han, he'd trusted palace officials to keep him abreast of the proceedings on Corellia and obviously, that intelligence was flawed.
"I've had one or two run-ins with a stubborn Corellian." Luke offered half-heartedly, much too concerned over the possibility that the updates he'd been fed were deliberately misleading. This wasn't some small, back-water planet; Corellia was vital to the New Republic's survival.
Han's recounting of the situation on his home planet further soured the occasion and Luke's shoulders once again buckled under guilt and remorse. "It's going to take a long time and effort to undo the damage that the Emperor inflicted on the galaxy; physical, emotional and psychological." Luke offered, not entirely sure his input would help anyone feel better about the situation brewing throughout the galaxy.
They entered the taxi, the pilot droid's request for a destination ignored in light of Han's revelation.
"That's impossible. I would have known."
Resisting the Emperor, and guiding his father to redemption; Luke considered his connection to the force and his skills in wielding the power it provided irrefutable. He was a Jedi. Yet, he had failed to pick up on the well-being of the only other person besides Leia that he loved.
"I-I should have known." his words came forth filled with confusion and guilt, "Through the force, through the people we trust, I should have known."
He turned in his seat, entirely focused on Han. Both hands reached out and encompassed the other man's as the cabin turned uncomfortably silent.

             𝙿𝙸𝙲𝙺𝙸𝙽𝙶 𝙰𝚃 𝙰 𝙵𝙴𝚆 𝚂𝚆𝙸𝚃𝙲𝙷𝙴𝚂 𝙾𝚅𝙴𝚁𝙷𝙴𝙰𝙳 ,  solo peered up from the dashboard, one hand wrapping tightly around the hyperdrive lever as the ’falcon broke coruscant’s atmosphere, seamlessly weaving through tangled webs of repulsorlift traffic encompassing the planet.  hazel eyes glimpsed the onboard systems a final time, and when the passenger safety indication lights flicked on, he pulled the lever.  the jump threw han backward into his seat, the endless black sea beyond the forward viewport pulling and stretching until everything bloomed into stark white streaks of light, the visual echoes of star systems rushing past at an incomprehensible speed.
hells, he’d never get tired of that.
han’s grin held strong for the next few minutes he spent checking flight controls and his onboard communicator.  however, seeing his inbox had no waiting transmissions was… strange, to say the least.  chewbacca normally checked in at least once a standard rotation, sometimes twice in a single rotation if he was desperate for a distraction from malla and the rowdy cubs.  only two rotations ago were five messages waiting in his inbox, though three of the five were holoimages of the baby cubs and a newly seeded garden.
Tumblr media
the memory twisted down the corners of han’s mouth, just as the safety indication lights flickered off in his periphery.  although troubled by the unforeseen predicament, han unbuckled himself and stalked out of the cockpit in search of turner.  with the ’falcon hurtling through subspace, there was no way in hell han could broadcast a message without it warping into an incomprehensible mess of static, let alone attempt to get a hold of chewbacca in real time… carding a hand through messy brown locks, the corellian curbed the abrupt rise of panic from below his collar bones.
             fat chance the empire broke through the rebel starship brigade encircling kashyyyk.  chewbacca was just… busy.   yeah, busy. ❝need a hand with that?❞ han offered, hip cocked and arms folded over his chest as he leaned up against the threshold of the main hold.  ❝if not, let’s grab a bite.  i’m starved.❞
Tumblr media
His errands consisted of getting spare parts for his cameras and robots he needed to repair. Along with finding out information about the Emperor and his servant Vader. The man who had his face. Having used the Force to disgust himself while he was out on Coruscant, he also used the gift that Jinn taught him. To mask his Force signature. If he didn't, he would have been found out as soon as he landed here.
Carrying the bag of parts was not nearly as hard for him. He kept his strength up while on the desert planet. His routines consisted of his Jedi training exercises. Something he couldn't give up. While he was there on the Outer Rim, he taught the younglings in his care how to survive in this world. How not to be caught by the Empire and taught them how to control their Force powers so they could live a semi-normal life.
One of his stops had him near Padme's old apartment. He found it abandoned. Anakin was able to get inside easily. Controlling the cameras with the use of the Force, he was able to make it so he was never there. Skywalker broke in and found himself wandering until he found his old workbench. There he had left his wedding ring behind. A gift from his former wife before Order 66 occurred and before Vader took her life. He held on to it for a few moments before shoving it in his pocket and taking a few of the bots he needed for his homestead. It had been years since he stepped foot there.
Leaving the apartment and the ghost of his old life, he went to meet the man who would bring him safe passage. Rounding the corner, he emerged and saw Solo standing there wiping his hands off.
"I didn't plan too. Errands kept me longer than I thought. I'm ready when you are."

             𝚆𝙷𝙾𝙴𝚅𝙴𝚁 𝚃𝙾𝙻𝙳 𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 𝚃𝙷𝙰𝚃 𝙽𝙴𝙶𝙾𝚃𝙸𝙰𝚃𝙸𝙾𝙽𝚂 𝙷𝙰𝙳 𝙶𝙾𝙽𝙴 𝚆𝙴𝙻𝙻 𝚆𝙰𝚂 𝙴𝙸𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 𝙾𝚄𝚃𝚁𝙰𝙶𝙴𝙾𝚄𝚂𝙻𝚈 𝙼𝙸𝚂𝙸𝙽𝙵𝙾𝚁𝙼𝙴𝙳 𝙾𝚁 𝙳𝙰𝙽𝙶𝙴𝚁𝙾𝚄𝚂𝙻𝚈 𝚂𝚃𝚄𝙿𝙸𝙳 ,  and solo would’ve said as much if luke’s arm wasn’t coiling around his waist like it belonged there.  unexpected for sure, but certainly not unwelcome, han thought for all the ten long seconds it took for his brain to quit stuttering.
❝sounds like skewed reporting, or they might’ve gotten their wires crossed,❞ han said after clearing his throat.  at least he didn’t trip and fall flat on his face.  ❝you ever try changing a corellian’s mind about values they ain’t been spoon-fed their whole life?  you’ve got better chances at sweet-talkin’ a rancor.❞
initial discussions had been a nightmare to navigate, and patience and subtlety were not among solo’s most renowned characteristics.  under the oppressive grip of the empire, corellia had descended into a state of perpetual decline on all fronts, and the consequences of ceding control to powerful mega-corporations backed by corrupt politicians, acting as puppeteers on behalf of imperial interests, proved detrimental.
❝politicians made sure we hit every bump in the road, even started pointin’ fingers near the end of it.  accusin’ me of turnin’ my back on my own people?❞  the corners of his mouth pulled into a sneer.  ❝rich, ain’t it?  comin’ from a buncha damned imperialistic dogs…❞
Tumblr media
pollution had hung thick in the air, blanketing the capital's skies, reminiscent of the noxious smog choking the lowest levels of coruscant that officials refused to clean up, which wasn’t exactly new to see, though the stinging pain that soon developed in his chest ultimately was.
the discomfort went ignored for the first few days, han having chalked it up to being under the weather.  hell, he even reasoned it a symptom of acute stress, considering this entire planet sometimes unsettled him for reasons he’d rather leave alone.  much as he loved his homeworld, he’d left corellia for a reason.  there were too many memories, too many incessant reminders poking at the blackened hatred for a man that still lived beneath his skin, under the mental ramparts he’d spent his life constructing.  but as the weeks passed, the ache unwound into sharp, stabbing pains, intensifying with each labored breath he took.
a quick trip to the medcenter awarded him with the grim confirmation that his hunch had been spot on: corellia, once a thriving industrial hub, had fallen victim to the clutches of corporate greed.  unregulated mega-corporations had ravaged the planet, turning every city into a breeding ground for pollution.  corellians bore the brunt of the consequences, as industrial-grade chemicals that drifted from the industrial sector of crescent city clogged the lungs of citizens, leading to sickness and death amongst populaces.  the economy had been in shambles for years—and still was, though with the recent resolution of the power vacuum, there was a glimmer of hope.  with the aid of the new republic, there was a chance to revert the damage done and save not only his people but the planet itself.
han’s dark glowering soon wilted into a plain frown as he followed behind luke, ducking into an airtaxi and settling beside the younger man.
❝if you missed that, then i reckon you didn’t hear ’bout my ‘extended vacation’ at the medcenter.  chemical burns to the lungs.  bacta supplies are still at a record low, so i got the old-fashioned treatment.❞  good thing chewie had taken the ’falcon to visit malla, otherwise the wookiee would’ve whisked them away and popped off the arms of anyone who protested.  ❝couldn’t breathe without a machine for a couple of days.  nurses kept me chained to the cot,❞ han added with a chagrined grimace.

"Well, we're less of a guerilla outfit these days and more of an established institution. It's amazing what we've been able to salvage from Imperial tech."
Luke referred to the basic advantages of infrastructure and manpower of course, not wishing to lay the darker revelations of Palpatine's regime on Han's shoulders just yet.
"For a moment, I expected the Falcon to have been rebuilt from stem to stern back on Corellia," Luke mused; the idea that Han or Chewie would drastically modify their carefully curated modifications seemed silly now considering the veracity with which both his friends defended the freighter.
"Well, you got here in one piece, that's all that matters." the shorter man agreed, delighting in the weight of Han's arm resting on his shoulder. Would anyone think him crazy if he admitted that this very moment made him feel safe?
Allowing himself to be guided towards the main complex, Luke offered their honour guard a small nod of appreciation, his lips forming a smile in response to Han's discomfort.
"You're a General of the New Republic, remember?" Luke whispered, instinct once again manoeuvred his arm around Han's waist, "I can't count how many times I've been asked about you and Chewie and even 3PO."
They weren't the only ones who made sacrifices in the fight against the Empire leading Luke to wonder if their notoriety was simply a byproduct of their relationships with Leia.
"I've had my moments. Everyone thinks a lightsaber is the answer to everything. I heard your business on Corellia went better than expected. How did it feel being back home?"

* OPTIONAL ELABORATIONS :
SONG: i have several 'theme songs' for han, but this has to be my favorite. the second i heard this on the radio all those years ago, i knew it was perfect for han!
the s.truts - could have been me: don't wanna live as an untold story / rather go out in a blaze of glory / i wanna taste love and pain / wanna feel pride and shame / i don't wanna take my time / don't wanna waste one line / i wanna live better days / never look back and say / could have been me
PROTEA: stands for change and transformation. signifies daring and resourcefulness. it is symbolic of diversity and courage. primary symbolic meanings are strength, courage, and resilience since the plant survives in extreme climate conditions. also symbolizes diversity, due to the hundreds of variations in color and shape found within their genus.
and since it's a bit difficult to read :
GREEN FLAGS: loyalty comes first, cheating is all but incomprehensible to him, will never turn his back on you, your material conditions/class/wealth are irrelevant, witty but knows when to get serious, charismatic but authentic about it, mundane isn't boring if it's with you, is far more observant of / attentive to your thoughts/feelings/body than you'd think, will readily risk his life to save yours again and again and again.
RED FLAGS: severe trust issues from childhood physical/mental abuse, prone to verbal/emotional outbursts (not always anger), very confrontational (not always in anger), will sooner chase you from room to room than give you space to breathe, has no patience & won't wait for answers when angered, has a hair-trigger temper if you push the wrong buttons, will not drop you and instead act like you don't exist because bad options are still options.
tagged : @sgterso thanks libby, i bet you knew i'd love this one!!!
tagging : @techniiciian @tapalslegacy @alootus @debelltio @desiccation (teshin) @duelfated (luke) @mnolith @oflightsbeam & anyone else who wants to do this!!
