How does he and C3PO fit in? I feel like we could all agree they should remain.

Its funny because I've always seen the whole Star Wars Saga as the lives and adventures of those two droids and everything happens around them. They were there when the galaxy changes and changes again.
One thing that I didn't much enjoy was they worked way to hard in the prequel to make them primary characters. in the originals they were more background character who were there to add character and the rare heroic moment.
I would absolutely have them both there in a new story. I would have R2D2 still with Luke. I would have him witness the death of Luke as well and cry as well as droids can cry.
I'm not sure with C3PO his rightful place is really with Leia, but I think killing him off harms the spirit of his character. I firmly believe that they should have still been around in the Legacy series 140 years in the future which R2D2 was in aiding Cade Skywalker. I believe they actually have shown the abandonment and death of C3PO in a comic called storyteller
It would be kind of funny if C3PO ended up on the Falcon after the death of Chewy, the dynamic between an older cynical slightly bitter Solo and a chirpy C3PO would have some good sincere comedy moments.
