	- Only Han could manage to destroy an entire washroom in less than five minutes flat. They say a girl marries a man like her father. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing that Jaina is marrying someone completely the opposite of Han Solo. -----signature----- Brain: Now, Pinky, if by any chance you are captured during this mission, remember you are Gunther Heindriksen from Appenzell.

	Jaina_and_Jag Leave it to Han to kill something while meeting the in-laws. LOL. Yeah, he really made a mess of himself. Loved the tension between him and Soontir. Thanks! dm1 Oh, Han, you're really making a fool of yourself! Funny that’s how it ended up, and he was trying so hard not to Loved how the ladies got right to business, at least they are getting along. Oh yeah. They’re going to have fun with this. Jag4Me Oh geez, wipes tears from eyes* this is about the most hysterical thing I have read in ages.* Why thank you! When he saw the photo and the buzzfish you knew it was going to be bad. Yeah, especially from his little snippet at the beginning. Your Han is a very believeable Steve Martin. Thanks!! I am hoping Threepio is not going to be the wedding coordinator. Ummm…no I don’t think so. But if what I have planned works out, you’ll probably wish it was Threepio. FlowerLady I'm laughing so hard that I can't even type....this has to be the damnest, funniest story I've read in a very long time... Wonderful!!!!!!! Thank you!!! So glad you like! Solo_and_Fel Got to love the awkwardness. Yep, there’s always comedy to be found in that. That is one of the best Han Solo moments. And then he turns around and runs the other way. I know I love that part!! Melissa_Fel13 This is just sheer brillance! lol. Thank you! Han is ridiculous and I love it! Han just shouldn’t touch things! LOL Father of the Bride is just like the perfect movie to base a Star Wars fan fic on, I mean like Han is the epitome of the overprotective father. I thought he would be the best choice for Steve Martin in this scenario. I can't wait to see your version of Frank or Franc or whatever. lol. Ohhhh…it’s going to be interesting. Looking forward to your next update! I’ll try to get something soon! JAGSGURL15 LOL only Han.... Amazing post! Thank you! ccp Oh poor Han. You can't win for losing. He’s having a bit of a hard time, isn’t he? Thanks! Jedi_Liz instead of looking at a bankbook, he knocks a wedding "photo" into a tank of dangerous fish....... Well you know, it still has to do with water, like falling in a pool. And dangerous fish=big mean dogs, LOL. Jainasolo101 That was so funny! Thank you! Han really messed up bad. Yup. But comedically, which is all that’s important here Could you explain what you ment by saying that Jaina doesn't finish anything like Han. That was a jibe at Han for finishing first at the academy and then just quitting, as well as Jaina for the things he would see as derogatory, like leaving Rogue Squadron, letting Twin Suns be disbanded, leaving Jag…stuff like that that we don’t consider that Soontir would. Can't wait to read part 2! Thanks, I’ll try to have something soon. PonyTricks Only Han could manage to destroy an entire washroom in less than five minutes flat. Yeah, and he wasn’t even trying They say a girl marries a man like her father. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing that Jaina is marrying someone completely the opposite of Han Solo. In many ways that’s true. But they have key similarities: they’re both great pilots, for one. And there was mention in one of the Force Heretic books about how both of them relying on intuition to guide them. They’re both stubborn, too, and adorable! . And they both love Jaina. -----signature----- Stories in profile 1st Peter 4:16 and John 3:3 Dubbed the Mistress of Cliffhangers "You can call me 'Great One'. Most people do." -Jaina Solo

	Oh my goodness, my sides are hurting. You had me laughing the whole way through. I loved Han's explination about his and soontir's dislike - and the little things like Leia doing her hair, really made this an enjoyable read. Then with the fish at the end - oh, that was priceless!

	I love your portrayal of Han, but the contrast between the men's tension and the women's excitement was the most enjoyable part for me.

I never caught this… Mira_Jade Oh my goodness, my sides are hurting. You had me laughing the whole way through. Thank you! I loved Han's explination about his and soontir's dislike Good! Those parts where he kind of has a monologue are my favs. and the little things like Leia doing her hair, really made this an enjoyable read. Then with the fish at the end - oh, that was priceless! LOL, thanks! Leave it to Han to do something like that. Good ol’ Han path-seeker I love your portrayal of Han, but the contrast between the men's tension and the women's excitement was the most enjoyable part for me. That difference between Steve Martin and Diane Keaton was one of my favorite parts of the movie as well. Can't wait to read more (and I think I might have to watch the movie again)! I had to brush up by watching it again, too Thanks for R/R!! jadesabre75 PMSL! OMG, this is so priceless! I can so imagine Han saying all this stuff. LOL Love it! Thank you so much! I’m so glad you all are enjoying it. Idrelle_Miocovani Han continues to be totally himself -- and completely hysterical! Thank you! Embarrassment is always good for humor LOL! Poor guy, he's really making an utter fool of himself. He can’t help it, he’s losing his little girl… willowbeecat Wow... I can't think of anybody but Han that would manage to get into that sort of situation. LOL, I’ll take that as a compliment. Dana-Skywalker < -- That's me right now. I hope those are happy tears!

	Part 2 “So how did things go with the Fels?” Jaina asked that night at dinner. I looked at Leia, Leia looked at me, and in a split second we made a decision to lie to our daughter. Hey, don’t judge us. You try telling your kid you ruined her new in-laws’ refresher and killed their pet fish in the course of one brunch. “Great,” I smiled. “Tons of fun.” I rubbed at the bandaged spot on my hand, the phantom bite of that buzzfish still stinging. “They’re lovely,” Leia added, reaching out and squeezing Jaina’s hand. “I just adore Syal.” I thought about gushing over Soontir and what great pals we were gonna be, but decided that would be a little over the top. No one would believe that. “That’s so great,” Jaina said, and seemed really happy about it, which made me feel a little guilty. Guilty that it had happened, that is. Not for lying about it happening. “I was so afraid you all wouldn’t get along.” Leia, the politician and therefore the better liar in our conspiratorial duo, covered it masterfully. “Not at all! We had quite the exciting morning at their house, didn’t we Han?” Have I mentioned how much I love my wife? “We sure did,” I grinned, then stuffed some food in my face to keep from having to say more. “What did you talk about?” Jaina pressed, but thank the stars, she wasn’t asking to me. “Oh, the wedding. We came up with some great ideas, I just love that woman’s taste,” Leia raved. And that was probably the truth. I didn’t really know. I had been given a sound chastisement after my incident, and she hadn’t deigned to speak to me since. I had decided she was getting soft with old age. She was letting me off easy. “What do you think about a wedding coordinator?” Jaina’s eyebrows lifted skeptically. “For what?” “You know, helping to get everything we’ll need. Someone with the means and access to all we’ll require. A wedding is a lot of work, Jaina,” Leia advised. “A coordinator would think of anything we might forget, which is liable to happen at our age,” she laughed. I scoffed a little at the exchange, not at all convinced. “Oh come on. It’s just a walk down an aisle and a big party afterwards. Lando and me could throw a damn good reception if you wanted. Hey, we could have it at one of those casinos on the Errant Venture!” I suggested brightly. “Booster owes me a big one.” They both gave me a look suggesting that things would go much smoother if I locked myself in a closet for the next few months while they figured it all out. “Han, we’re not having our daughter’s wedding reception in a big red flying casino.” I lifted both hands in mock surrender, offended. “Fine, fine. I was just trying to suggest something where we could all have a good time.” They decided to ignore me. “Anyway,” Leia continued, “Syal mentioned she knew someone who would fit our needs. His name is Fasha Marsoo, and apparently he just took over a company from his aunt, who was a very well-known wedding planner. He has all the resources, and we don’t need much help in the actual planning.” “Whatever you think is best,” Jaina sighed. “You know I have no idea when it comes to stuff like this.” “I thought you’d say so,” Leia smiled. “So Syal went ahead and set up an appointment for tomorrow morning.” “That’s fine with me,” Jaina played around with her food like she always had as a little kid. I had a sudden flash of her, ten years old, flicking a spoonful of dessert into Jacen’s face. “Dad, you should come too.” “Me?” I pointed incredulously at my chest, shocked just to be brought into the female dominated conversation. “Why?” “Because I want you all to be a part of this,” she grinned at me. “I want it to be a family thing.” I wanted to point out that this ‘family thing’ would conclude with her leaving our family and becoming a Fel, of all people, but I didn’t think either of them would appreciate the insight. And, as much as I would have liked to decline, I never did find it easy to say no when she looks at me with those milky brown eyes. Besides, I needed to suck up just in case Soontir decided to rat on me. * * * Fasha Marsoo turned out to be one of the funniest looking creatures I’ve ever seen, and let me tell you, I’ve been around. He was tall and gangly, with eyes on short little stalks and an amphibian-like beak. He had big long, droopy ears, and walked awkwardly, like he was always trying to get his underwear out of a bunch. Immediately, I knew he wasn’t going to be one of my favorite people. And that was before I heard him talk. “So what wesa gonna do is order usa a cake,” he spoke to Jaina, Leia, and Syal, waving his arms for emphasis. “Wesa got lots o’ styles for usa to choose from. Now, lemme see, where is dat catalog?” He stumbled around the Fel’s living room until he found where he had left the pile of junk he had toted in. “Okiday, mesa found it. Here, taken a look at deez.” I slumped a little lower in my chair, and felt like covering my eyes. He was bumbling around all over the place, and I had no idea how the three women were putting up with it, let alone assuming he was going to help things. But they all seemed to take his strange behavior with a grain of salt, and far be it for me to speak my opinion. I was starting to understand how those Kuati telbun must feel. “Dad, look at this,” Jaina leaned over her chair and handed me a holozine. In it was a picture of a big white cake, covered in all sorts of decorative flowers that I sincerely hoped would be edible. Otherwise, there were going to be a lot of people gagging on plastic. “What do you think?” “Yeah,” I tried to sound positive, I really did. “Nice.” She rolled her eyes, then decided I was hopeless and left me alone. But to my horror, Jaina acknowledging me for that moment seemed to indicate to Fasha that I was someone to consult with. He gawked over to my chair, big goofy smile on his face, and said, “Oh, usa da fadder of da bride? Wesa gonna get you bombad tuxedo!” and then he shoved another catalog into my hands. I did a quick scan of the first couple pages and decided they were all a little too fruity for my taste. “Uh, no thanks pal. I already have a tux.” “Han, you haven’t wore that thing since our wedding,” Leia interjected. I sent her a foul look. Part of me was starting to believe this whole morning was one big event engineered for me to lose my mind. It had all the right ingredients. “What, it still fits!” Jaina snickered behind one hand, then tried to play it off like a cough. “Ahem. Oh, sorry, something in my throat.” “Now what’s that supposed to mean?” I scowled. “It does fit!” “All right Han,” Leia sighed, sharing a look with Syal that I didn’t like at all. It was like I wasn’t even there, I swear! “You dig it out of storage and try it on when we go back to the Falcon.” “All right, I will,” I declared, defiant. I don’t know what they were trying to say, but it was coming off like they didn’t quite believe I was the same size I was about thirty years ago, which is ridiculous. “Okay then,” Leia agreed, flippant. “Unless you want me to wear one of those telbun outfits, you know, just to go ahead and make it official,” I muttered, just to rile her. It was always fun to do that in public, because she was way too proper to slug it out in front of people. She would just sit there and stew. Of course, I would really get it later, but usually the make-up sex was well worth it. The look she sent me said I was insufferable. Inwardly, I smiled. Have I mentioned how much I love my wife?
