Luke shook himself out of his thoughts, turning to give Obi-Wan a smile. "If I had one for all of them, I'd be able to buy myself a planet," he said.
Luke now understood why Obi-Wan had asked him before not to reveal much of his future. Learning that, in two short years, he'd apparently forged an alliance with a group--a group!--of Sith was disorienting enough. To know that their liaison was a girl who couldn't be older than Ben was even more so. And the fact that she was Ben's age opened up a whole separate set of worries that Luke had hoped to avoid until Ben was at least thirty.
"I think I learned more from Ben than I wanted to," he said, gesturing with his head at one of the empty couches around him. It felt odd for Luke to be sitting while the man he looked up to was standing, as though Luke was of higher status. Technically he was, but Luke would never be able to see it that way.
