Timestamps, such as "Date/Time/Type of Action" would be great!

This sort of bond was something he was familiar with, though the term itself was not. A connection forged though battle and strife, absolute trust and the knowledge that no matter what they'd always have your back. It was common among members of the Rebel Alliance, particularly the officers and spies. Not to mention squadrons of pilots like the Rogues and Wraiths. Even Jedi, in a sense, had such a bond. And pirates, gangsters, and other groups too.]
I'd believe it, actually. I've got my own 'nakama' back home. People I trust with my life and feel I could put the safety of the entire galaxy on. Its not uncommon for pirates and gangsters to feel the same way at home. Nal Hutta is filled with 'families' of pirates and groups that take a similar stance among members.
Though the explanation is appreciated. Its a good, short way to put that connection into a single word.

I'm glad you do. I think more people in Luceti could use people in their lives like that, though, honestly, nakama isn't for everyone. And here, I can see why people would be afraid of it.
[Who hasn't experienced Luceti's brand of loss?]
But the conditions are right for it. Sure this isn't the traditional sort of ship or station either of us is used to, but we are all stuck together none the less. We can't escape each other, just like on any pirate crew, for better or worse, even though we have more room to spread out. So I can see nakamaship forming. Messily. We have such a hodgepodge of different values here, such differing senses of right and wrong and understanding.
[It's musing in general. He's not talking about the subject they both know they will talk about and he's thinking of other people at the moment. But the conversation is flowing in that direction as it will. As Law is letting it do so organically.]
Haa, very messily. It doesn't work without the mess, maybe. Perhaps that's a required factor for the forge.

Ami...is a little different I think.
[Luke laughs softly]
I think its certainly possible though, for something like that to form.
