Who: Legacy AU Imperial Luke and Thrawn
What: Luke accompanies Vader in the aftermath of the Battle of Poln to hear Thrawn's report.
When: Sometime after Yavin.
Where: Governor Ferrouz's palace
Rating/Warnings: TBD
The adrenaline rush from the battle hours ago had yet to wear off and Luke hurried down the halls of Governor Ferrouz's palace, near running to keep up with his father's long strides. He was aware of the agreement he had made with the man they were going to meet: assistance against the thorn that was Nuso Esva in exchange for the capture of Rebellion leadership. It was a tall order to expect of any Captain in the Imperial Navy, and Luke didn't expect anyone to actually fulfill it. After all, they did not, in fact, want the Rebellion's leaders to be captured; the Rebellion being successful was essential for keeping Palpatine distracted as Vader built his force -- gathering those loyal to him that would have no qualms about unseating the Emperor from his throne.
Yet, even despite the impossibility of such a task, knowing that Leia and the others had managed time and time again to slip the grasps of Imperial forces that were actually trying to capture them, his father seemed worried.
That worry seemed to be for nothing the moment they set foot in the governor's offices, however; there was not a Rebel in sight. Just the governor himself, a human he didn't recognize, and a blue skinned alien, and it was an actual effort for Luke not to boggle at the fact that he was the one in an Imperial uniform. Thankfully, Vader channeling his relief that there was no Rebellion leaders here into rage for the sake of playing his part made him near invisible, at least for the moment. He took a step back, almost like he was hiding in Vader's shadow, observing the others as his father became a cold fountain of rage in the middle of the ruined office.
