#That it didn't matter what side Rutin supported he would appear to support whatever kept his baby safe

I saw the cutest Kalluzeb idea in a TikTok comment that I am 100% stealing, sorry random Tiktok commenter!!!!

So, the idea was just that when they get married, they use pieces of the Bahryn meteorite for their rings. Which idk how realistic that is(Can you set meteorite in rings) but 1000% it's possible. For my verse:

Which it's not the OG meteorite, that was lost when Kallus left the Empire, but they return to Bahryn after they agree to get engaged(Remember: An engagement should never be a shock. The proposal should be a surprise, but you should discuss engagement). Jump back into that crater, remembering about the first time they landed in it.

How they hated everything the other was. How that night, they stripped all that away and sat as just Zeb and Kallus, two beings. How in the dawn light, they laid in a tangle and Zeb woke up thinking My Warrior and how they were prophesized from so long ago.

And here they are. Looking for that same incandescent meteorite. Only when they find it and Zeb climbs them back to the surface, Kallus jokes, for old time's sake "The goal is not to fall," Zeb says well, they've failed badly at it and Kallus laughs into his neck. As a dutiful student whose first serious relationship was an alien professor in university, he's never tried to fail at a goal, but he's so thankful he's failed at that one. That he fell for the one who, at first, kept him warm on his coldest night, and then the memory of that night lit up his darkest nights when he wondered if he could be strong, like the lasat.

Unlike the first time, when they reach the surface, they go to a warm ship and they fill it with the sound of lovers whose lives before the first time they landed on this ice moon doesn't exist for an hour. Chopper grumbles that this was not why he kept the ship warm, and Zeb ignores him as he watches Kallus cradle the meteorite like it's the most precious jewel the galaxy has ever known. For Kallus, it's his entire life.

Zeb crafts the jewelry himself. A ring for his lover and whatever lasats wear as a form of proof they are taken. They don't have a proposal but a formal exchange because their agreement is that they'll only marry when-if- they get Ezra back.

They are very well aware they could only wear these the rest of their lives. Neither need anything more, because their commitment is solid. But they want a proper ceremony with their family. It'll never be completely full again-both have lost so much. Kallus' first love will always be a death he can never fully heal from, it led to losing a best friend in an argument where things were never forgiven. Lasan. Kanan. But they have a family, that is theirs, warm and loving and full except for Ezra even if it's not complete. They want to celebrate with them and their closest friends.

They keep the meteorite in hopes of fancier rings and trinkets, pray to it silently. Bring him home to us. And one day, Ahsoka and Sabine does. Older and battered, but it's Ezra. And he's ecstatic they waited for him.

The wedding jewelry is fancier, but neither gives up their engagement ones, fashioned from the second meteorite. Both are a commitment and a reminder of that very first night.

I love the idea of them returning to Bahryn so much????? Why did I never think of it before.

(EDIT: Apparently the idea belongs to @iftheresaproblem-whatever. It made my night when I was terrified to go home(I was overreacting from a stressful situation with my sister), you're a genius. I really hope you don't mind me taking it over/adding to it? If so I apologize/can delete???)
