Star Wars Chat Pack: Which two characters should meet each other?

Welcome to Day 20 of my NaBloPoMo Challenge, where I randomly draw a card from the Star Wars Chat Pack.

Today’s question is: Choose two Star Wars characters who have never met. How would their first meeting go? Why would you want them to meet?

I want Luke and Ezra to meet. They’re the same age (both born on Empire Day), are both Jedi trained after Order 66, and both knew Obi-Wan (and Ezra met Yoda’s Force ghost). I’d love to see them meet and swap stories about their masters, what it was like to grow up under the Empire, being trained in the wild without the Order (Baylan’s “bokken” Jedi), their philosophies about the Force, etc. Maybe Ezra could help Luke with his school, or help him find Force-sensitives to train.

I think they’d like each other, though they have very different personalities. Ezra’s definitely goofier, while Luke has grown more calm and serious. I want Luke to have a Jedi friend, lol. Ezra at least had Ahsoka for a time, and had Kanan longer than Luke had either Obi-Wan or Yoda.

They could talk about their brushes with the dark side–not just in another person, but within themselves. I wonder if Luke would confide that Darth Vader–who Ezra had the misfortune of meeting and fighting–was his father. It seems a deeply personal thing that he wouldn’t mention to just anybody, obviously, but maybe as a story about the possibility of redemption. I don’t know, I just want them to be friends and to know each other’s stories.

Maybe they’d clash a little bit at first–Luke chides Ezra to be more serious; Ezra complains that Luke should lighten up.

Of course we don’t know where Ezra’s story arc in Ahsoka/the Mandoverse will be going, and I doubt this meeting will take place. I could be wrong, though; Luke has made his appearances in the Mandoverse, and perhaps their paths will cross. I would like to see Ezra train Jacen. Neither Ezra nor Jacen is at the school at the time of its destruction, but that doesn’t mean they don’t spend time there at any point.

If they meet at all, I’m guessing it will be brief, perhaps in a time of crisis with no time to get to get to know each other at all. But in my perfect Star Wars world, they’re good friends. Ooh, I sense a fan-fic coming on! Well, maybe not; but if anyone else wants to write it, I’d definitely read it!

What do you think? Do you think these two would like each other?

What two Star Wars characters do you want to see meet, and why? Let me know in the comments and we’ll talk about it!
