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.

[ He folds his arms behind his back. ]

My padawan, Anakin Skywalker is here. Along with . . . [ he hesitates briefly. ] Ahsoka Tano.

Oh, I know Ahsoka. Kind of. We went hunting together.

Hunting?

[ Then they must have gone down to the planet at some point. ]

Ahsoka was always good at making friends.

Well, one of us had to be or it wouldn't have happened, and it's not me.

Anyway, we just know each other, kind of.

Would you like to know her better?

[ Normally, he wouldn't focus on that, but he's curious to know how Ahsoka is doing. ]

Yeah, I guess so?

Then it will happen. I've had the pleasure of working with Ahsoka. It was a privilege to be her friend.

[ "Friend" is a weak word, but saying more might be confusing. ]

You're mad she left too, huh.

[ Mad. Was he? He takes a moment to search his feelings before he shakes his head at her. ]

I . . . don't take things quite so personally. I believe she made the choice that she felt was best for her. Any master would be proud.

Good.

[ Not friends, indeed. ]

No need to be concerned. I certainly harbor no ill-will of any sort.

[ look, we revolutionists need to stick together ]

From what I hear, she's getting enough of that already.

[ Oh, Anakin. Obi-Wan's torn between defending him and letting Anakin deal with it. ]

The circumstances was extenuating. I'm sure, with a little time, they'll both come out of it fine.

You'd probably know better than me.

I know them well. Knowing better, however, is not one of my skills.

Got it.

So you're a General? Or is that just your name?

General is a title given to me by the Senate. My name is Obi-Wan Kenobi. I am a Jedi Master.

[ He wonders how much of this she would understand. Normally, people recognize him quite easily. ]

Oh. She kind of mentioned some of that.

It would not surprise me. The Jedi were a large part of her life until recently.

Seems like it.

Do you have any questions yet?

No, I believe I am fairly up to speed. The rest will come with experience.

[ Answers would only get him so far. ]

You're pretty calm about all of this.

Most Jedi tend not to let their feelings take control of them.

[ He had to put that addendum there. ]

Most?

[ long suffering sigh of exasperation. ]

There will always be some exceptions.
