20 Years Reunion Brainstorming

A suggestion was made in the original info post to provide a brainstorming post for everyone to rattle off ideas, plan futures, coordinate relationships and whatever else might be needed for the plot!

And thus, the brainstorming post has been birthed and lo, we present it to you for all the storming of the brains you might need to do! Have fun planning!

Name: Ben Skywalker

Age at Reunion: 36...ish. He travels fairly frequently through the multiverse, so it's possible he's missed count on a birthday here or there.

Backstory I've worked out so far: After writing to Ender weekly for five years with no reply (DAMN YOU, ENDER), Ben finally got the hint and moved on (ish) with his life. He became a member of Karla's Court in Glacia, is something of a wingman for Tony Stark (though he fails miserably at chatting up hot Russian models) and still has time to head home for various Jedi adventures. He works closely at home with his cousin Allana, doesn't like to talk about the thing he almost had with a Sith named Vestara and generally uses his jumping between universes as an excuse to have not had a meaningful relationship in about twenty years.

So he's still an expert at repressing.

He's kept in touch with the various versions of his family members (and Tahiri) and is currently trying to grow an Obi-Wan-esque beard. It looks fairly stupid, not gonna lie.

How he could fit into your character's backstory: If you've spent time in Karla's or Tony's universe in the last twenty years, you'd have run into Ben. You'd also know that Ender is a sore spot.

Not all of us can work the stupid goatee look, Tony. God.

Beard envy hardly becomes you, Skywalker.

In completely unrelated news, Karla's thinking about making a rule that says all members of her Court must be clean-shaven. La.
