A: TEXT

I think it's time I retire from teaching for a while.

I don't suppose anyone knows a decent way to pass the time?

B: ACTION

[ When Stefan announced the prayer room, a quiet place for meditation, Obi-Wan had been thrilled. While he enjoyed and cared for the Huntress, quiet is not something they are known for. After talking to Anakin, he knew he was in dire need of quiet and inner peace

He does not regret ( he can not regret )

And yet.

In a way he had envisioned as a child, it had always been Master and Padawan, together. Even when separate, they fought together, learned together, believed in each other. But Qui-Gon died all too soon, and for so long, Obi-Wan threw his hands up against tradition. When Yoda told him to be Anakin's master, he chose to be Anakin's friend. He did not caution against attachment, only warned where it might lead.

He breathes heavily, his legs folded on the mat. It's not working. The Force is still too quiet, too alien at this moment. It doesn't understand his sorrow.

Obi-Wan chuckles, opening his eyes and pushing his hair back. It should be used to that by now.

Looking down at his hands, he's quiet when he speaks. ]

Please help me.

A lightsaber. Think of it as a sword whose blade is made of concentrated light. It can cut down any metal, strike away any energy and moves like it is a part of your body.

The parts, however, are not easily found or I would construct one myself.

That sounds both very useful and complicated. [It reminds her first of Kizaru, then Zoro, and she thinks with a grin Zoro would love to get his hands on a blade like that.]

The climatact is a staff combined with various chemical reactions. It can create weather patterns on a small scale. I'm starting to think the science for it might be unique to my own world, though.

It certainly sounds like it. I haven't heard of chemicals that can replicate weather patterns on a small scale. That's quite amazing.

I don't suppose you know exactly how it works?

The chemicals don't replicate the weather itself. The climatact generates combinations of rapidly cooling or heating air that someone with expert knowledge can then manipulate into causing weather patterns. That involves implementing certain technologies I have no idea how to create on my own, or I might have better luck. I just co-opt them into a weapon when their usual use is to help countries in drought and the like.

[Don't dig too deep, Obi Wan. One Piece science is a rabbit hole of wtf-ery.]

It would take a massive amount of air and movement to produce that kind of effect. We have our planetwide weather system on Coruscant but that really only applies to the richer planets.

Shame you don't have it here. I would have loved to study it.

[ He has his nerd moments ok. ]

It does, which is why I can only produce small scale. Think a room, or a courtyard. And if I ever get it back or manage to remake it, I'll show you.

[Though probably not long enough to actually study it. She's missed the security it brings a great deal.]

I'd like that. To the future possibility of us regaining our weapons.

I'll hold onto hope.

Likewise. And I hope you find a bunch of things to keep you occupied! That, you know, you actually enjoy doing.

I'm positive the right opportunity will present itself.
