"Why hello there! I'm afraid you just missed me! But oh, don't fret, I'll be back soon and return your message promptly. Bye bye now!"

[Anakin is going to get a message over the amulet not too long after she receives his gift.]

Oh, Anakin! What a wonderful name for such a cute little droid. I've never had... or even met a droid before now.

He really won't mind doing so many things for me?

[ He chuckles briefly, but nods. ]

I'm glad you like him. And don't worry, he doesn't mind. Droids don't sleep, you know? And they can get restless and feel useless if they have nothing to do. They like to be appreciated for their good work and can make great friends. He will like you, I'm certain of that.

Oh ah, no I didn't know. [Seriously this is her first droid ever, Anakin.]

He really doesn't sleep?

No, they don't sleep. But you can ask him to go into sleep-mode, which is... Well. It isn't exactly sleeping. But it'll stop him for a while to roam around. Normal droids can recharge their batteries that way, but I couldn't quite rebuild those here.

[ Local technology and all. ]

You'll figure out what he likes and what not. They're all unique in their own way.

[ What with this one's AI and everything also being vastly different from the droids he knows back home. ]

If you want, I can stop by with Artoo from time to time. He's my astromech droid and he helped me build this little guy. I'm sure they will gladly meet one another again.

Maybe I'll have him come to the bakery with me! We always need help with sweeping, sugar and flour always get everywhere no matter how careful we are! Mouse will be perfect for that! I'm sure of it! And he can even help carry the trays throughout the bakery. Then he can rest at home with me!

Oh! I would love to meet another- ah droid! I've never met anything like them!

[ Anakin chuckles. ]

Then we'll come visit you and Mouse

And you would be surprised, Snow. While droids are very common in my galaxy, most societies see in them little more than tools. But you'll soon see that they're much more than that.

Oh that's terrible, the poor dears. Well I'll see to it that Mouse is treated as one of the family. Oh, but I don't speak droid, he'll still understand me though?

He'll understand. And I have no doubts that with a little time you'll figure out his beeps and whistles yourself.

Oh he whistles? Oh I love to whistle! [She has a rather nice whistle, actually.]

Give it a try if you like, maybe you'll get close enough to binary for him to understand.

Binary? What is binary? [Hey super duper advanced space tech, meet a princess from the 1500s.]

That's what droid language is called. It's all zeros and ones with them, but don't try to give it too much thought.

Well, I'll let you know how things go with Mouse, and then I can't wait to meet R2!
