Some habits were just hard to break, and he couldn't help but wonder how long it will take him to settle after the war is over at last. He doesn't dwell on it for very long, as the mention of the orphanage perks him up a little.
"I stop into the orphanage every now and then," he said. "I like to look after the kids there."
no subject
He knows from experience. But he doesn't elaborate.
"I'm sure they-- and the other volunteers-- appreciate it."
He takes another bite of pastry. "At least adoption rates are pretty high."
Though the events that lead to the children being orphans and the scars they carry with them distress him more than a little. His sense of duty makes him want to fix it. But his common sense knows it's not that easy.

no subject

It's a thought that's crossed his mind. He wonders how it would feel if a niece or nephew of his showed up. Maybe even a child of his own. Or a padawan.
He thinks he'd probably love them as easily and readily as he loved little newborn Ben.
