"Alright, what are your interests and hobbies?" you ask Kira.
"Dancing, I like dancing through I've only been taught the traditional Outer Rim dances as part of my education growing up," answers Kira, "I also like watching HoloNet shows and films. I like romances and action ones, but no tragedies. I like happy endings even if it doesn't work that way in the real world, but I watch them for entertainment. Otherwise, my hobby considered of making sure my ship was working right, but that wasn't so much a hobby as it was ensuring the continuation of my livelihood."
"I could try watching some of those with you some time," you suggest, "I personally prefer to read a book, but I sometimes watched stuff with family growing up. And if you want someone to watch you dance, I wouldn't say no."
"I would love to dance for you," replies Kira with a slight grin on her face, "I wouldn't mind teaching you either...though I totally understand if you don't want to learn any Outer Rim dances because you know."
"I'm from the Outer Rim you know," you inform Kira, smiling to show that you aren't embarrassed by her suggestion like she seems to think you are, "Telos is practically on the border of known space in fact. Even if I'm a Jedi, I'm no Core Worlder and neither are my parents for that matter. Both Mum and Dad came from the Outer Rim even if they got raised by the Jedi Order. Plus both of them know how to dance Outer Rim-style."
"Really?" asks Kira.
"Really," you confirm, "Dad picked up during the Second Sith War and Mum picked it up from him."
"Huh," mutters Kira, looking and feeling thoughtful.
"So, I take it that dancing and watching HoloNet is your idea of a relaxing day?" you inquire.
"Pretty much," replies Kira, "If I could afford it, I might get myself something nice to eat. That meant eating out or getting takeaway since my cooking skills are pretty basic as they weren't part of my training."
"I learnt basic survival skills as part of my training," you say, "All Jedi are expected to be capable of looking after ourselves and others."
"Sounds useful," says Kira with a sigh, "Me and the others were only taught what we need to do for our assigned jobs. They didn't exactly forbid us from learning other stuff, but they didn't provide any help either and they did crack down on anything that might distract from our duties. Still, I was able to get some extra knowledge here and there."
"You'll have plenty of opportunities to learn new stuff with Mum and I," you tell Kira, "So I was wondering, where would you go in the galaxy if you could do anyway?"
"I did have my own starship you know, but I suppose even then, I had limits on where I could feasibly go," replies Kira, "Coruscant because it is Coruscant and all capital of the Republic and heart of the galaxy. I had encountered enough Corellian stuff that I want to see the planet for myself, but the planet I would like to visit the most is Alderaan. The planet looks so beautiful and peaceful and I would totally take the chance to do there if offered. I also would like to go to Telos after hearing you talk about it."
"I can't promise anything about Corellia or Alderaan, but we are going to Coruscant next and I would bet good money that we go back to Telos at some point," you reply.
"Sounds good," says Kira, "I would also like to go Shili. I would like to visit my species' home world someday even if I don't know any Togruta customs or traditions."
"You could try learning some," you suggest, "Neither Mum or I will stop you so long as it doesn't get in the way of your job."
"And my job is flying the
Red Banner so that shouldn't be a problem," says Kira.
"Yes, it shouldn't," you agree before deciding to ask the biggest question on her mind, "So I've got a more serious question now."
"I'm listening," says Kira.
"I'm wondering if there is anything that I am doing that makes you feel uncomfortable," you ask her, "And if there is anything I can reasonable do to make you feel more comfortable."
For a few moments, Kira is silent as she processes your question and comes up with her answer. You are content to give her the time to figure it out as it is the most serious question that you are asking her and its answer should not be rushed.
"I don't know," admits Kira, finally speaking up, "Spend more time with me, I guess? You aren't doing anything that upsets me and the only thing I think of that I would like you to do more of is spending time with me. And you already agreed to do. Oh, you could keep me company when we visit places I've never been before. I would use your reassuring presence when I am going to somewhere completely new."
"While I can make no promises, I shall endeavour to be with you in new places," you reply, "I suspect that I would appreciate the familiar company myself in new locations."
"Thanks Luka," replies Kira, giving you a wide smile and you resist the urge to blush as you feel her infatuation for you though the Force.

"Coruscant, the Capital of the Galactic Republic and the Queen of the Core," says Kira as the
Red Banner comes out of hyperspace and all three of you are gathered in the cockpit of the freighter, "I never thought I would see this planet let alone land on it."
"You'll be getting to see some of the best parts of it," says Mum, "We'll be spending between a week and two weeks on Coruscant, long enough for Luka to finish recovering before we go off in our next mission. I will be dealing with politics for the most part while you find most of your time used up by medical attention Luka. Feel free to do your own thing when you do have the spare time. The same applies to you as well Kira."
"I have no idea what to do," mutters Kira, "I don't think I've ever been somewhere like this. Even Nar Shaddaa is going to be a whole different ship compared to kriffing Coruscant."
"I can provide you with some suggestions and places to go," offers Mum, "Now, we will be receiving our landing path any moment now. Don't worry about how much priority we will be getting or going into restricted areas. The
Red Banner has been registered a VIP vessel by the Coruscanti authorities."
What sort of prosthetic forearm does Luka get?
[] A nigh-indestructible prosthetic made using a cortosis weave.
[] An extremely life-like prosthetic that is practically indistinguishable from your old arm.
[] A weaponised prosthetic that has an inbuilt blaster and retractable vibroblade.
[] A high-tech prosthetic with advanced technology built into it for you to use.
[] A defensive prosthetic that has an inbuilt energy shield with effectively infinite uses.
[] Write-in. (Subject to QM veto)

Okay, the plan for Coruscant is for Luka to get a better replacement forearm and some proper medical attention for her injuries. Once that is done, you will have some chances to form some connections or pick up some new skills or gear before you get to pick Luka's next mission. Luka herself won't get to choose, but I will let you vote on what mission Bastila decides to take her on.
