Think I can get my own cigar, thanks. [Well, this has definitely shaken him, if he's calling instead of texting at a reasonable (for him) time and his own casual demeanor sounds deeply strained.] Stang. Never thought I'd see the day.
With those eyes? Yeah, couldn't be anybody else. [Oh, kriff, Leia. This would break her heart.
Wait, Kylo's Force-sensitive, which means:] Hey, did she ever do something weird around you? Things like Luke does, I meanβimpossible shots, being able to just feel somebody?
You know, finding Luke hanging off the bottom of Cloud City was a one in a million chance. At the time, I figured it was just him letting us know where he was somehow, but... maybe it was a two-way thing?
Maybe. It explains some things, at least, thoughβ
[A tired breath.] Still a lot that it doesn't. Why he's mad at Luke as well as me, for one thing. [Because Han can't actually fathom Luke doing anything that would warrant such anger and hatred from Kylo.] And he said something before he told me he was my kid. Something about me dying.
From how he was going on about it? I'd say it happens much, much later. [By Kylo Ren's hand, he's certain. But he doesn't want to say that, doesn't want to accuse his son of his own death, just wants to know why.] I'm. Shavit, this is a bad idea, but I'm gonna try and talk to Luke's father. [aka Darth Vader. And when Han thinks it's a bad idea, it's probably a horrible one.] Way Luke tells it, he's on the same ship.
[He does not sound happy about this. Not at all.]
Just thought you should know. [A second's pause.] Wait, did Luke tell you?

[ In multiple ways. ]
He's Leia's, I'm assuming?

That's a long way off, I hope. He didn't say anything about you dying when he was still young, did he?

Be careful. If you need someone there when you talk to him-- someone more impartial who isn't going to say the wrong thing... Let me know.
