from here:

Esfir leads Cal into to her room and shuts the door behind them. Her room has changed from the last time he was here - she's been building bookcases, and even though one is incomplete with tools and pieces of wood on the floor, the room looks more homey.

On the wall is pin-up board, complete with both black-and-white and colour photographs of her old life, but the model aircraft are gone from her desk.

"Um, mind the mess."

Cal glances over the floor. "Okay." As long as he doesn't trip over anything, he doesn't much care.

Cal nods. "Thanks," he says, taking a seat. A brief, distracted smile crosses his face as he remembers the last time he was up here. Mickey Mouse doesn't really seem like quite such a big deal anymore.

"Yeah," Cal says. "Beats being dead." That's a given. ". . . Where does your door go?" If she's living in the Star Wars universe now, does the Bar know? Does her door open there now? Or does it still take her home?

". . . That would be the god?" Cal asks, surprise crossing his face. He hadn't thought of that.

Maybe he'll find out where it was he woke up after all.

Shit.

"Part of it? Part of your deal, you mean?" He really is trying to hide his sense of relief, even if he is failing spectacularly. He squeezes her hand, though, saying genuinely, "I'm sorry."

"That's good," Cal says, then smiles. "You're a perfect fit for Star Wars, anyway." Much easier to talk about Esfir right now.

"Oh, god, definitely. Running all over the place fighting bad guys who can't aim for shit, anyway? That's perfect." He pauses. "Just don't piss off Darth Vader. It's really not worth it."

"Good," Cal says firmly. "Keep it that way. He's not a henchman, though. He's the bad guy. He goes around blowing up planets."

"Oh, yeah." Cal looks sheepish. "Uh. It's been a while since I watched the movies, and I only watched them high. If I say something that sounds wrong, it probably is."

"Well, what do you know?" Cal asks. It'll be easier to try to fill in the holes. Probably.

"Probably more like Nazis, yeah," Cal agrees quickly. "Blowing up an entire planet definitely sounds like genocide to me. Yeah, that was Leia's planet." He thinks for a moment, then nods. "That all sounds pretty much like the outline for the trilogy. I'm not sure how many details I can really fill in. I mean, there's a bunch of stuff with the Jedi and the Force, they basically got wiped out but they're coming back, the Jedi I mean, and shit how much of this should I even be telling you?" He knows what happens in these scifi worlds when you fuck with the timeline.

"Yeah, Leia and Luke, uh." Cal hesitates, but Esfir isn't stupid. She knows what's best kept to herself. "They're twins, but they might not know it yet. I, uh, can't remember when they find out. Second movie? At least the second one, because the first one had a thing with them that turned out to be kind of incestuous. But then Leia hooked up with Han, and Luke - I dunno, I always figured he was a virgin. He's kinda whiny."

There's something about her response, as careful and even as it is, that makes Cal pause warily.

"Yes," he answers cautiously.
