kinky-space-nerd:

if he’s trapped at a fancy dinner party somewhere with gross politicians? like imagine qui gon and a table full of really awful senators

qui gon: oh, yes, absolutely [launches into an explanation of the galaxy’s main child slavery and human trafficking markets, in excruciating detail, with stomach-turning examples of things he’s witnessed]

(full disclosure, this was 100% lifted from my dad, who has written books on 1) a serial killer 2) the death penalty and 3) children who died because their parents refused to get them medical care on religious grounds. many a well-intentioned “so what are you working on now?” has led to some really gruesome topics during cocktail hour)
