65, laugh
"Goodness, Obi-Wan, lighten up!"He frowns at me. Or just stares. It's hard to tell the difference. "I have lightened up."
I roll my eyes. "Smile! Laugh! We're kids. I may be fighting a war against my parents but I still know how to laugh at life."
And I can see his face struggling briefly with effort before he gives up.
"Life isn't meant to be funny," he says seriously.
It's a funny statement, but it's also sad.
"For Jedi, maybe," I say gently. "But for everyone else, we need to find the humour in it or we'll go mad."
