Is anyone in town in need of maintenance or repair workers, especially for mechanical or computer-based systems? My droids are in need of jobs to keep them busy.
[Luke presses his lips together indignantly, as an indication that this has become a problem lately.]
One is an astromech, specializing in starship maintenance and navigation but he could probably do work on just about anything. The other might be tricky. He's a protocol droid and while he's capable of typical labor it's not his specialty. No one needs a translator by any chance, do they?
[Yeah, okay so it's a long shot but he thought he'd check. He's pretty desperate to get the droidsespecially Threepio out of the house without the guilt of begging someone to babysit them for him.]
Well, let me know. I'll have my comm on me all day.

I'm working on repairing the gardens in Salvation. They could help out and keep me company. Maybe the protocol droid can help water the plants. Or talk to them. They might be a bit lonely. And dead. Well, only some are dead. I'm working on it.
I bet I could talk to your protocol droid in new languages he could learn. Would any of that be at all useful?

That... actually sounds perfect. Why didn't I think of putting them to work on the ship? They won't be bothered by some of the side-effects we experience and they could possibly get some important systems up and running.
Yeah, I can't see any reason why that wouldn't be a great way for them to spend their time. And I'm sure Threepio would love to learn new languages. The more the better.
When are you usually over there?
no subject
I'm glad I could help out. I'm sure you had other things on your mind.
I'm usually at the farms from 5 am to 2, and then I'm at the ship for the rest of the time.
[why yes,she really does mean 'the rest of the time'.]
When would you like them returned? Or would you like to just stop by and pick them up when you need them?I'm sure I can find plenty of things to keep them busy. I'd be like entertaining Harper!

I think they can get around on their own. And there's usually a transport or two heading to and from the ship every day. We can try things out for a few days and see what works best.
And you're there until everyone usually goes home? [Yeah, he totally misunderstood her there.]
no subject
No, I'm there always. Unless I'm not. I don't sleep....Much.
