Who: Ahsoka + Obi-wan and YOU
Broadcast: No
Action: Planet-side
When: 10th of Jan

[ As promised, in a few days time, Ahsoka and Obi-Wan make their way to the markets. They dress warmly, Obi-Wan procuring a thick cloak for himself. It's hard to feel like a Jedi Master without one.

He watches as Ahsoka flits from stall to stall as he lingers behind her, to correct her on her "bargaining" technique. In a way, they resemble a teenager, saddled with a wiser all-knowing uncle. He strokes his beard in light amusement. This is probably what he needed right now, a reassessment of his priorities, the here and now. ]

Like... vanity thing?

[resnipstance]

Yeah. Something you're proud of.

[takeabow]

Oh. Um... my shooting, I guess?

[resnipstance]

Hey, that's pretty cool!

You should be proud of that. More than hair, anyway.

[takeabow]

Well, I like my hair, too, if that counts for something, but I don't think I'd change the color.

[resnipstance]

Yeah?

I've always kind of wondered what it feels like. I mean-- I know you don't have any actual feeling in it, but... is it warm? Heavy?

[takeabow]

I'm not sure I've thought of it before. If it's wet, it can make you cold?

[resnipstance]

Oh! That's right... it takes a while to dry, doesn't it? Like clothes...

[takeabow]

Yeah, exactly. I tend to braid mine pretty quickly so it can stay wet for awhile.

[resnipstance]

What about when the weather's like this? Wouldn't it freeze...?

[takeabow]

I guess it could, if it's cold enough. But it insulates itself too.

[resnipstance]

Huh.

Sorry-- this stuff must seem so basic to you. Most of the girls in the order keep their hair short, too, so...

[takeabow]

When we're back on the fleet I can let you play with it sometime, if you want? Show you how to plait.

[resnipstance]

Wait, really?

... I'd like that.

[takeabow]

Yeah. My friend Susan and I used to hang out and do that. I kind of miss it.

[resnipstance]

Then let's do it!

[takeabow]

Ok. Let's. It might not be the same without a fireplace and ice cream but we'll make it work.

[resnipstance]

Fire isn't the greatest idea in space anyway. But I'm sure we can find a way to make it cozy.

[takeabow]

Yeah, I guess not.

I wish we could stay someplace like this.

[resnipstance]

I don't know. Being on the ships isn't ideal, but I've had about enough of snow...

[takeabow]

I could stand it for a little longer.

[resnipstance]

The salt, too?

[takeabow]

Well, I'd prefer another terrain, but I'll take what I can get.

[resnipstance]

Not much for space, huh?

[takeabow]

I kind of can't stand it.
