Who: Obi-Wan Kenobi and You
Broadcast: Video
Action: Hospitality Deck - Marsiva
When: January 2nd
[ Obi-Wan is no stranger to waking up to unknown locations, but this seemed odd . . . even for him. He gropes for his lightsaber . . . which is gone, obviously. He huffs, before straightening himself and brushing his hair back. Communications . . . communications . . . ah, there it is.
A video feed. Somewhat archaic, but it'll do. He doubts anyone from the Republic will be nearby, but perhaps the locals will offer some aid. Obi-Wan clears his throat before speaking. It's time for his other skill set to come in use. ]
Greetings. My name is General Kenobi. To whom do I have the pleasure of addressing? And I don't suppose there is someone willing to answer my questions? Because I have a great deal many of them.

Thank you, Miss . . . Shimamura, correct? What exactly is the Golden? And which ship am I on?
no subject
As for the Golden itself... It's one of... I believe 17? smaller ships that make up the majority of the "drift fleet", which would be... us. All the smaller ships are set up so that they must be within a certain distance of the Marsiva, or they'll automatically self-destruct.

About time you showed up.
Re: vid
And where exactly have you been? Don't tell me I have to rescue you. Again.
no subject
I don't think it counts as "rescue" if you're stuck in the same place. And don't give me any "again" talk, I've always had to rescue you.

Iiii think I can answer a few. Though, fair warning-- you aren't going to like the answers.
[No "Hello, how are you, long time no see, what are you doing here?" from Ahsoka.]
Re: video
Master Plo Koon had the right of it, and for that, Obi-Wan lets it go. ]
When do I ever? . . . Hello, Ahsoka. It's good to see you.

[Her smile is warm. She isn't sure exactly where they stand any more, but she won't treat him like a stranger.]
You might want to sit down. I have a feeling you're in for a series of rough surprises.

All it takes is two words for Leia's interest to be piqued. This is a much, much nicer development than most of those she's experienced since her arrival.]
General Kenobi.
[He looks far younger than she would have expected, but that means little in a place where Anakin Skywalker and his twenty-something children can coexist.]
It's an honour to speak with you. My name is Leia Organa, and I would be happy to answer whatever questions I can.
Re: [video]
A pleasure, Miss. Organa. What exactly is all this? Several ships, travelling the galaxy together?
no subject
Such a better surprise than Anakin Skywalker.]
You have the general idea. We've been taken hostage for the entertainment of others, however. Everything we do is recorded for some sort of holo-drama.

[ she seems cavalier, but she did answer your video when she didn't have to. she might have a brownish smudge on her cheek ]
Re: video;
Yes, I'm clearly fortunate to recognize some people here. I imagine that is a luxury most people aren't afforded.

Obi-Wan Kenobi?
[ mildly, says han solo, who is sitting in his pilot's chair and looking decidedly unimpressed, mostly because you are both 1) not old and 2) not dead, which means you are 3) probably not very useful in convincing luke skywalker he is an idiot and should probably just avoid anakin skywalker at all costs.
way to fucking go, obi-wan.
how. dare. you. ]
I'd give you the rapid fire welcome, but I'm sure a bunch of eager people have already done it for me.
[ wryly.
also he's pretty sure leia can do a better job. ]
Re: [Video]
Yes, I'm clearly quite fortunate. You must be Captain Solo.

That's a very comprehensive list. It must have taken quite a bit of time.

I'm afraid you may find the more questions you ask the less you seem to know, when it comes to this situation.
Re: video;
Well, I need to start somewhere. I do realize that part of it will be my experience on this ship.

Ben, and he actually says it out loud, his voice strangled, his hands shaking as he stares at the comm. Ben Kenobi-- Obi-Wan, only Luke had never really thought of him with that name. Ben Kenobi, his first Master, his mentor, his entire reason for becoming a Jedi in the first place--
Ben Kenobi, back from the dead.
Only of course he's not. He looks so young, and he must be from the same time as Anakin and Ahsoka-- from the Clone Wars. Which means he'll have to conceal the future from him too, and it takes a moment to accept that fact. If ever he needed Ben's council, it's now.
But so: he waits. He composes himself. And when he's ready, he opens the video feed and gives a short bow.]
General Kenobi. My name is Luke Skywalker. And I believe we ought to have a more private conversation, if you're amenable to it.
[He can't possibly pretend to be anyone but who he is-- Anakin's son, Leia's brother-- right now. It's too much. And if Anakin doesn't like it-- well. It's not as if Ben won't find out eventually. Might as well get it all out there now.]
no subject
But he's lost him now. With tremendous effort, Obi-Wan conceals his emotions. There will be time to mourn, time to feel and absorb. But that time was not now. It was time for Anakin's son. ]
I always have time . . . for another Skywalker. Please. Tell me your story, young Jedi.
