A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away.
It is a period of internet trend. The Facebook website, striking from an obscure part of the internet, has emerged to the surface and won a place among the hearts of the galaxy citizens.

Owen Lars : There's rumor about this empire thing ruling the galaxy, the leader is a man in black suit and mask or some sort. Wonder why people would go to such length to look scary these days!

Beru Lars : Be careful with what you're posting on social media, sweetheart!
Owen Lars : Don't worry, honey. They won't come to Tatooine anyway. There's nothing in here to see. Except sand…
Beru Lars : Let's hope this person hates sand enough to not come down here.
Owen Lars : Exactly!

Did you hear about the XP-38 thing? It's awesome! Can we buy it, pleaasee?
Owen Lars : No, your current speeder should be enough. And hunting womp rats doesn't need an XP-38 either.
Luke Skywalker : Aww :(
Owen Lars : Going to buy some droids from the Jawas today! Should be cheap or I won't buy anything!

Beru Lars : Darling, we need a droid that speaks Bocce, doesn't matter if it's a little bit expensive, we need it to help us, so Luke can go to the Academy :)
Owen Lars : But Luke is not going to the Academy.
Ben Kenobi : Owen, I don't think you should keep that kid in Tatooine forever. You should let me see him sometime.
Owen Lars : Shut up, you old man!
Owen Lars : Okay, so a golden protocol droid - which reminds me to a similar droid a long long time ago – and a red R2. Should be enough for now.
Luke Skywalker and Beru Lars like this.
Beru Lars : Does the robot speak Bocce?
Owen Lars : Yeah, the protocol droid does.
Luke Skywalker : Is that long, long time ago when my father was still around?
Owen Lars : We aren't talking about your father here, kid!
Luke Skywalker : k
Luke Skywalker ~ Owen Lars
Uncle Owen, This R2 unit has a bad motivator. What about the blue astromerch? The protocol droid tells me it's still in prime condition.
Owen Lars : Okay, we'll take that one. You take care of them, Luke.
Luke Skywalker: But I want to go to the Tosche Station to pick up some power converters :(
Owen Lars: OMG, I didn't raise you to be THIS whiny.
Luke Skywalker: k
Owen Lars : is waiting for my darling Beru Lars for lunch. Don't forget the blue milk, honey! ;)

Beru Lars : Of course, I won't :)
Owen Lars : The blue milk may be sweet, but you're sweeter.
Beru Lars : Aww :*
Owen Lars : is having lunch with my beautiful little family, Beru Lars and Luke Skywalker!

Luke Skywalker : Uncle Owen, I think that R2 unit might have been stolen.
Owen Lars : What makes you think that?
Luke Skywalker : He says he belongs to someone called Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Owen Lars : Just forget it. Tomorrow, take that R2 unit to Anchorhead and have its memory erased.
Luke Skywalker : Okay, so if those droids work out fine, I can go to the Academy, right?
Owen Lars : No
Luke Skywalker : Ohh, why :(
Owen Lars : Why does Beru keep telling me to let Luke go? His place is in Tatooine, it's obvious.

Beru Lars : No, I don't think so. He's not a farmer, Owen. He's like his father.
Owen Lars : A Jedi Knight? LOOOOOLLLL. No.
Ben Kenobi ~ Owen Lars
Where's Luke, Owen?
Owen Lars : He's fixing the droids, but it's realllyyy not your business. I told you not to come see him again.
Owen Lars : Now that I am alone, I can think and remember what that golden protocol droid reminds me to. Different plating, but same characters. But I ain't telling anyone.

Luke Skywalker : What does it remind you to? Is it my father?
Owen Lars : Can you please stop asking about your father all the time?
Owen Lars : Quality time with my love Beru Lars. Now watching rom-com 500 Days of Sand. Epic film!
Biggs Darklighter, Beru Lars, Boba Fett and 10 others like this.
Biggs Darklighter : Haven't watched any film for a while, very busy now. Is this good? What is it about?
Beru Lars : It's about a boy who grows up in a desert planet and ends up hating it so much. He then meets a royalty girl and falls in love with her.
Biggs Darklighter : Hmmm….
Ben Kenobi : *spoiler alert* The girl dies in the end and the boy turns evil.
Beru Lars : You've watched this, Ben? Didn't know you're into this kind of film.
Ben Kenobi : Trust me, I know :)
Beru Lars ~ Owen Lars
What should we watch next, darling?
Owen Lars : Let me see, we have The Bantha Ultimatum, The Gungan Games, and Earth Wars Holiday Special. You decide :)
Beru Lars : Really want to watch The Bantha Ultimatum, but I haven't watched The Bantha Supremacy. Also, I heard Earth Wars Holiday Special is quite dreadful.
Owen Lars : Just checked out the review. You're right, Earth Wars Holiday Special is a disaster, not as decent as the other six films in the series apparently. So, The Gungan Games it is. It's about gungans killing each other in an arena.
Beru Lars : Sounds good to me!
Luke Skywalker : Can I join in?
Owen Lars : Stop playing Facebook and go to bed, Luke.
Luke Skywalker : Okay, if you don't want me to join. You guys watch your films and I'll be outside watching the binary sunset.
Owen Lars : Good morning, Tatooine!

Where are you?
Beru Lars : He's out early this morning with the droids.
Owen Lars : I wonder what that protocol droid has been up to.
Owen Lars : I have a bad feeling about today… And why Luke hasn't come back yet? I am really starting to worry.

Beru Lars : You're right, what are those people wearing white I see through the window? They're shooting their blasters, but they can't seem to hit anything. What are those?
Owen Lars : LMAO, you guys can't hit me with those blasters. When did the last time you actually hit something? Wait, wait, what are those guys doing? No, not fire please…
Owen Lars : Okay, what did you say? Anakin was what? WHAT? WHAT? I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS.
Beru Lars : Let's get out of this place quickly, Owen! Before the fire kills us.
Owen Lars : C'mon, where are you?
Luke Skywalker : My father was what, Uncle Owen?
Luke Skywalker : Uncle Owen?
Luke Skywalker : Why are you not replying?
Luke Skywalker : Is everything alright? I think I should go home now.
Owen Lars : Hello everyone! This is Luke Skywalker, Owen's nephew. I have to sadly inform you all that my uncle and aunt, Owen and Beru Lars have passed. Rest in peace both of them :(

Luke Skywalker: But, I am going to have an adventure! No more rules for me! So don't mind me here.

A.N. Hey guys! Thanks for reading my absurd story. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I love writing it! I wrote Owen's story here because I think it's pretty short and it's fun to write. But I plan to write more from other characters' point of view if this gets a good reception. Enjoy!
