...And also these.

[ Calibration Rooms ]
( for N-Z characters )
Before you post your topcomment, please:
1. Check the first letter of your character's name as its written in our tags. A-M names go to the other post, and N-Z names comment here.
2. Make a note in your topcomment if anything especially triggering or graphic might show up in the Calibration. If you're not sure if something's worth noting or not, we suggest listing it anyway, just to err on the side of caution.
3. Put your character's name (it can be shortened or different from the tag, this time) in the subject of your comment. This will help visitors find you easily, and help us update the list below.
4. Post your comment! It's fine if everyone's Calibrations end up looking and reading very different from one another. As long as you're having fun and following our guidelines, you're good to go. :)
5. If you have any questions or concerns during Calibrations, you are welcome to send them towards the mod team at any time, as always.

    [Octavia nods silently, a full blown grin on her face now. She's had this happen before, but it never gets old.

    The butterfly flaps a little as if to leave... before two more come join it.]
    resnipstance: smiling (44)

    [Ahsoka grins.]

    I think they think I'm a tree.

    Should I get you some water in case it doesn't rain for a while?

    [Her voice is quiet, so not to scare them off.]
    resnipstance: smug, happy, content (93)

    [personal profile] resnipstance 2015-11-15 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
    Ha, very funny.

    ... You know, this would be a perfect date spot.

    [Octavia lifts her brows, head tilting as a smirk starts to form.]

    Really? All you had to do was ask, you know.
    resnipstance: smiling (44)

    [personal profile] resnipstance 2015-11-16 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
    [Ahsoka just laughs.]

    What? Oh-- no. Sorry. I didn't mean it like that. I don't think we know each other nearly well enough for that.

    [personal profile] grounds 2015-11-18 01:52 pm (UTC)(link)
    [She chuckles, too, quietly so as not to disturb Ahsoka's passengers.]

    Yeah but that's what the point of one is, right?
    resnipstance: eyebrow raise, smirk, smug (02)

    [personal profile] resnipstance 2015-11-18 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
    Well-- yes, but... Jedi aren't really supposed to get romantically involved.

    [She looks a little confused now.]

    Why not?

    "Attachment is the path to the Dark Side."

    [Her voice changes slightly when she says that, like she's quoting something rather than just being conversational.]

    The ideology of the Jedi is that to be one with the Light, we must act selflessly and for the good of the universe as a whole, not in our own interests. The more attached you are to someone... the more difficult it becomes to let go. And if the time comes when you have to choose between saving thousands of people or saving one person important to you... as a Jedi, you have to be relied upon to make the right decision.

    [Octavia's expression shifts into one that shows her disagreement with the philosophy. And she even shakes her head.]

    That's not right. I mean, if you do find someone you really care about like that, the other person should understand-- even want you to do what you have to. They can drive and motivate you to be better.

    [She's very vehement on this.] You do the same for them.
    resnipstance: wry (42)

    [personal profile] resnipstance 2015-11-18 02:39 pm (UTC)(link)
    Well... in an ideal world, sure.

    The real reason I suspect is more to keep us from creating Jedi dynasties. Back when Jedi were allowed to marry and have children, it definitely turned into a problem.

    There were more Dark Side users back then, too. So maybe there is something to it.

    [She's still a little sour but nods reluctantly.]

    That one actually makes sense. But they shouldn't mask it under some horrible attempt to keep people from finding something like that if they want to,
    resnipstance: skeptical (60)

    [personal profile] resnipstance 2015-11-18 02:49 pm (UTC)(link)
    ... To be honest, that was always the rule I struggled with the most, too.

    We're supposed to have compassion for all things. But we're not allowed to love. It seems... contradictory.

    [personal profile] grounds 2015-11-18 02:54 pm (UTC)(link)
    It does. How do you keep yourself from jumping from one to the other? They seem so similar.
    resnipstance: brows furrowed, thoughtful, annoyed (73)

    [personal profile] resnipstance 2015-11-18 02:59 pm (UTC)(link)
    Master Obi-Wan would probably say something like... it isn't wrong to feel those emotions, but rather, it is our struggle as Jedi to move past them. To acknowledge them, but let them flow through us, so that we might be in control of ourselves... rather than they in control of us.

    [She blinks, trying to rephrase that.]

    Basically... have them but don't act on them?
    resnipstance: happy smile, excited (40)

    [personal profile] resnipstance 2015-11-20 01:28 pm (UTC)(link)
    Oh-- yeah! That's a way more simple way of putting it. Why didn't I think of that?
