Kaidan caught the grin and waited until he could catch Kanan's eyes. "Hera's the captain of the ship you're from. You're her crew. You're not, uh. Anything other than that. You're used to staying on a ship where there's no space, thus: one bed." You were a weird ascetic Jedi mofo who didn't believe in furniture and probably really enjoyed having Hera's weight in the bed and there was zero chance Kaidan was going into any of that.
He would apologize to Kanan on Monday for glossing over the importance of 'Captain' and 'Crew' but he figured his friend would understand.
Kaidan laughed a little, "At least some things never change, buddy. I kind of expected the questions. You hit me with a constant string of 'em every time. I don't know why it skipped me. It doesn't always affect everybody and I guess this time it's my turn to sit it out. Jack, too. She's another friend of yours. Short bald woman with lots of scars and tattoos. Lives upstairs in #8 and she'll help you out if you need it too."
He ruffled Stance's ears. "Stance eats dog kibble. You should have some in the apartment but if not, we can hit up a store and get some more. Don't give him people food, I'm not sure what-all of that he can and can't eat. He's a dog, buddy, not a wolf. This is his adult size. You've had him since he was a puppy because you found an abandoned puppy somewhere and brought him home with you. I'm not sure of the details. You've got nothing going on today, it's Saturday. Tomorrow you work at Luke's Diner but, uh, I don't think anyone'll give you flack if you don't go in so that's up to you. Hera owns the scrap yard - Syndulla Scrap - but I don't know what her hours are or if she just goes in when she feels like it." Paused. "She might want to go over there at some point to reassure her astromech, Chopper, that she's ok. I'm pretty sure that's where he lives."
Kaidan looked up and caught Kanan's eyes again and nodded firmly. "You're safe. There's a lot of people who are mighty confused today but it doesn't seem to have made anyone dangerous. Stay on the island for the weekend and everything'll be back to normal on Monday."
