happy birf to Eri-Xin Kenobi-Bridger!!!! born Relona 9th, 13 ABY!!

Jey-Min’s oldest daughter and Myrrine’s older sister! and as with both her mom and grandma Ora-Lin, i decided to keep w/ the hyphenated first name theme. b/c why not. and arguably it might be my favorite, but don’t tell the others.

she’s definitely the more active/sporty/athletic of the two sisters; she’s also more active in the sense of wanting to be part of the bigger picture too. in fact, at some point she runs off to join the Resistance, and the reason i say “runs off” is b/c idk what her parents are up to at that point. otherwise, she’s more than welcome to join in the fight at any point, b/c frankly that’s how she was raised. she wants to help and fight the good fight; that’s why she’s practically always training, be it on her own or w/ her father--which is why she’s more of a daddy’s girl than her sister, and why the shape of her lightsaber actually matches her dad’s Rebels s1 lightsaber. she opts for a design that can be easily mistaken for just a fancy blaster b/c if she can hide the fact she’s Force sensitive, that can really work in her favor.

and as for the rest of her family, of course she’s close w/ her mom and sister too, but she absolutely considers Ihme to be an older brother, regardless of blood relation. Celia and Torren are also like the closest she’s got to grandparents given that all her biological ones are dead, and even tho both her parents are only children, Tähtien is still w/e gender neutral term for aunt/uncle you wanna use. not to mention just a lot of people their parents know are basically her extended family in some way or another; not to say she was like some sort of prodigal child or anything, but she was definitely well-loved when she was brought into this world.

edit: a post for her son!

~one year later...

i had at least one idea for her son’s dad, but now i’m just super on the fence about it, leaning more towards it prob not being him. but at the very least, it’s highly likely someone she met in the Resistance. for now, i’m resigned to the idea that she just ends up a single mom b/c frankly i really don’t know what direction i want to go w/ her in terms of romantic relationships, ghsjkg. and i’d have to check my timeline, but i’m sure Cai-Lan is born well after the events of the sequel trilogy, so like. on one hand it’s not like it’s super important but given i already wrote her son into her story, tbh i just don’t wanna take that from her.
