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.

[beardstrokes]

[ 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.

[takeabow]

You'd probably know better than me.

[beardstrokes]

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

[takeabow]

Got it.

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

[beardstrokes]

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. ]

[takeabow]

Oh. She kind of mentioned some of that.

[beardstrokes]

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

[takeabow]

Seems like it.

Do you have any questions yet?

[beardstrokes]

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

[ Answers would only get him so far. ]

[takeabow]

You're pretty calm about all of this.

[beardstrokes]

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

[ He had to put that addendum there. ]

[takeabow]

Most?

[beardstrokes]

[ long suffering sigh of exasperation. ]

There will always be some exceptions.

[takeabow]

That's not always a bad thing.

[beardstrokes]

Like many things, it comes with both good and bad. It's rarely just one.

[takeabow]

Yeah. That's basically what I was saying.

[beardstrokes]

[ He nods. ]

It is not our way . . . or my way. That is all.

[takeabow]

I just think living like that would've gotten me killed. Or worse, my sister.

[beardstrokes]

[ He raises an eyebrow to that. ]

In your world, perhaps. The Jedi way is not for everyone.

[takeabow]

Clearly.

[beardstrokes]

[ This is kind of amusing. He lets it show, a little. ]

Clearly.

[takeabow]

You're used to all this space stuff, huh.

[beardstrokes]

I have to spend a lot of my time on ships, though I can't say I enjoy it.

[takeabow]

Really?

[beardstrokes]

I prefer my feet on solid ground, thank you. I'm a decent pilot, but I abhor flying. Unfortunately, that's where I usually am, most of the time.
