A Kalluzeb ‘Meet the Family’ fanfic
Chapter 1: An ill-advised rendezvous
Oh, now it's 'hard work'.
Before it was 'overkill', Alex 'allowing' his 'paranoia' to get the better of him.
Stars forbid he be paranoid about a visit to Coruscant's Underworld where they intend to parlay with one of the oldest, most cutthroat crime families in the North-Eastern quadrant! Obviously he was just being silly, and paying for current charts of the 2k and 1k levels was uncalled for. Paying for recon of the meeting place and surrounding neighborhoods was simply outrageous. Raising his alcohol tolerance, practicing his Old Tongue and corresponding accent in Basic, notifying their friends and family of where they'll be and when to expect corresponding check-ins, where any deviation thereof should be considered a big red sign that he and Zeb are In Danger and in need of an Extraction, and then establishing extraction protocols that take Coruscant's garbage innards into consideration– All a waste of his time!
It's not as if he knows his own family and what they are capable of.
Chapter 2: Just like in the Holos 
"The truth is that he saved my life," Alex says quickly, as to get out ahead of whatever nonsense Garazeb wants to spin to entertain the girl. "And challenged me to question what I thought I knew. It is, admittedly, romantic in hindsight."
"It was plenty romantic at the time, too!"
"Oh yes, my heart was all a flutter while I was hanging upside-down by my own rifle's bayonet, after you'd tossed me like a rag doll–"
"And I caught ya again, when ya fell, didn' I?"
"And threw me, again. Out into a blizzard."
"And then y'did the sweetest thing," Zeb says, propping his chin on one paw as he gives Alex an obnoxiously adorable look, "You didn't shoot me in th'face with my own bo-rifle. That's when I knew, doll. That's when I knew you were 'the one.'"
"...really?"
Oh no. Oh no, she believes him.
