Awww. BD was getting snuggled, too. All the kisses and snuggling, just for adorable droids.

"Found family is one of my favorite tropes," she said, voice falling quiet as she glanced towards the screen of the TV, expression soft and wistful. "Where you have a group of outcasts, loners, weirdos...and usually external forces end up putting them together. Usually they're strangers, sometimes they're even enemies, but over the course of the plot, they end up becoming family. They love each other and trust in each other and it doesn't matter that none of them are related by blood, because family is family. Theirs was just found, not made at home, you know? Other folks call it 'forged' family, because it was forged by circumstances, and also, like...you didn't just trip over it. You worked at it. Maybe even fought for it and bled for it..."

She shrugged and looked back up at him. "Whatever you call it, it's good having a trope out there that acknowledges that family can be more than just biology. That love isn't just romantic, familial bonds are just as important and valid."
