Lothal, in Ryder Azadi's tent, 2132 pm

     Ezra had cried himself to sleep on Kanan's lap, drooling on Kanan's thigh. He looked at Ryder, pleading for help, but the older man smiled, and sympathetically stated, ''You're on your own, Kanan. Might as well get comfortable, my friend. Besides, he's had a long day.'' Kanan carefully maneuvered himself to where he lied behind Ezra on a sleeping mat, sending comforting thoughts through the Force. 

     The only reply from Ezra was a slight shift and a mumble that sounded like, ''Stop it, Chopper. I'm trying to sleep.'' Kanan snorted in amusement which caused a bleary blue eye to open. ''Kanan?'' 

     Kanan whispered, ''Shh, Ezra, I'm here. Go back to sleep.''

     Ezra closed his eyes and mumbled, ''Okay...Dad.'' Ryder left to keep watch while Kanan fell asleep, Ezra snuggled up to him.

I DO NOT SHIP KANAN AND EZRA WHATSOEVER. THIS IS A FATHER-SON MOMENT.
