Ben couldn't help but smile. "Everyone was young once, Luke, even me. Come, let me show you –"
Luke turned back to him, looking affronted. "You were sex on legs!" he accused.
"Luke, really –"
"You're swaggering! Look!"
Ben peered across the salle floor at the young man making his way toward the rack of practice sabers, passing the occasional word with agemates along the way. "I did not swagger."
"Did you walk like that in front of your mother?"
Sighing, Ben resigned himself to letting Luke rant himself out. "My mother didn't live on Coruscant."
"Because if I'd walked like that in front of Aunt Beru she would have flayed strips out of my hide and grounded me for the rest of my life."
Hee, poor Luke.
