*hand immediately shoots in the air* I WANT TO HEAR ABOUT THE SPACE GIRLFRIENDS

Space girlfriends are the best girlfriends that’s just science.

Here’s a rough outline because I still haven’t figured out all the plot but Steela is back on Onderon where she’s desperately trying to avoid being chosen as the new senator (Lux is super dead in this) when word arrives that Ahsoka is on trial for treason and murder.

That is ridiculous, she tells Saw, who had the bad luck to be the messenger. Get me the king. I won’t stand for this.

Steela may not completely understand politics but she’s going to figure it out quickly.

Ahsoka is exonerated and leaves the Order, and she is alone. Or she thinks she is right up until Saw turns up on Coruscant to take her back to Onderon.

You always have a place with us, Saw says, as gentle as he knows how because Ahsoka looks almost small, stripped of her lightsabers and padawan beads.

Thank you, Ahsoka says, and then quietly, more to herself than him, I don’t have a home.

About that, Saw says, and tosses her a data pad. Steela’s got it all worked out.

It’s citizenship papers. Ahsoka is a citizen of Onderon.

How? Ahsoka asks, eyes wide.

Saw shrugged. She freed our people. They’ll give her anything she wants, and what she wants is for you to come home.

Steela is waiting for them when they land, and Ahsoka only has enough time to raise her hand her greeting before Steela is embracing her, hand steady and warm between Ahsoka’s shoulder blades.

I know we can’t replace what you lost, Steela says, but this can be your home too, if you want.

It takes Ahsoka a long time to reply, clinging as she is to Steela, but she says, Thank you, and means it.
