Your son

"Hera fought in the battle of Endor, as did Commander Rex.
By that time, there had been a new member added to the crew of the Ghost. Spectre-Seven, Jacen Syndulla.
Born to fly, just like his mother.
And, well, we all know what his father was like."
I need to be honest here.

Of all the characters introduced in tv shows, books, and movies, Jacen is, by far, the one I am the most curious to read about.

Sure, I would pay good money for more insights about Eli's Ascendancy life.
But while my headcanon is able, somehow, to supply answers for Eli, in the case of Jacen, I have soooooo many open questions.

Son of a Rebel General and a Jedi, grandson of "The Hammer of Ryloth".
Big shoes to fill.
Did he have dad issues? Mom issues?
Was he force sensitive?
Did he have his father's heart? And his mother's soul?

Would he bond with the older Luke during the years in the Rebellion, given that they were both -curiously- sons of "supposed not to be fathers" Jedi?
Did Rex tell him epic stories about his very handsome dad while roasting space marshmallows in the Yavin summer nights?
Was he with his mom when the Ghost appeared on Exegol?
Was he Ben's childhood friend? Were they playing with marbles in a corner of the situation room while their moms were fighting the lasts year of the civil war? Or against the First Order?
Was he friends with Poe, then? Did he meet Rey or Finn? Were they karaoke buddies?

So many untold stories.
His network so vast and fascinating.
Such an unbelievably huge potential.

Aren't you curious?
