"That boy is our last hope," Obi-Wan said, watching Luke's X-Wing rise into the air.

"No," Yoda replied, shaking his head. "There is another."

The Force Ghost stared at his living great-grandmaster.

"You what," he said.

"...another there is?" Yoda tried. "See your problem, I do not."

"Who exactly do you think Luke was going off to rescue?" Obi-Wan demanded. "He said Leia was among those who were in danger of capture."

"Supposed to mean something, that name is?" Yoda asked. "Keep up with current events, I cannot. Terrible reception, this swamp has."

"Oddly enough, Leia is his sister," Obi-Wan declared. "It's not like I'd forgotten her existence. I said he was our last hope because he hasn't been captured yet, but she has."

Yoda frowned, clasping both hands on the haft of his gimmer stick.

"Buggered we are," he declared. "Tell me, you did not."

"I think we're all a bit too used to keeping secrets," Obi-Wan said, diplomatically.

"Too used to keeping secrets, you are," Yoda objected. "Going mad alone in a swamp for over twenty years, I have been. Blame me, you should not."

"I do apologize, but I've spent the last few years dead," Obi-Wan defended himself. "It really does a number on your schedule."

They both felt the flash as Luke entered hyperspace.

"...you know, I sort of hope that R2 tells him at some point," Obi-Wan mused. "Or perhaps distracts Vader at a crucial moment with an electroprod."

It's not like they're talking about Rey, is it?
