Log 002 | Video + Action - Can't Kick Those Old Habits

Who: Jim Kirk & Anyone
Broadcast: Yes, fleet-wide
Action: On the space station
When: Feb. 14 (or any other day you want to work out for the action)

[ Video ]

Okay, so I think I have the money situation figured out here.

We get money by being popular on this "show" and being "ranked" -

[ Can everyone hear his continued disbelief of this load of crap they are being fed, but fine he's playing along for the time being. ]

But we can also get it on the station by offering to do work. Am I right? Which, by the way, just seems like it's adding insult to injury.

So aside from my making a cardboard sign and tacking it up in the space station, I'll set it out here too - I'm generally good with technology and fixing things in general, so if you ever need anything fixed I'm more than happy to get whatever it is you need running again for a fair price.

And if anyone has a recommendation on someplace to get good, cheap clothes on this station, I'd appreciate it. And real food.

[ He can only live so long between his uniform and the gray jumpsuit and replicated food items. That buffet on the Blue Fish ruined him to early. There are limits. ]

[ Action ]

[ As he said, he made his way down to the space station to see if he can drum up some business and start earning some cash. He hates being a free loader or being put on charity - he just hates being non-useful in general and he's terrible at sitting around and doing nothing. Besides, job hunting might also come with info hunting, so it's two birds with one stone in a sense. So off to find a job and some food that hasn't been replicated. It never tasted the same, no matter how much the product might say otherwise.

One really should not be surprised to see him chatting someone up, male, female, green, tailed, scaled ,or otherwise. It might be equally common for him to be getting slapped, and there's about a 65% chance of catching him in the midst of a bar fight if you find him later in the evening, or leaving in the company of someone. He did mention he had a reputation to keep up, and everyone needed some outlet for dealing with their situation. This was his.

He will try not to look to chagrinned making his way back to the ships come the morning though... ]

[ ooc: feel free to hit him up anywhere on the station as he will literally be going around every inch of it. And by all means, be the one being hit on, or just interrupt his night/morning because he's made poor life choices somewhere along the way! ]

I believe that still qualifies as a home. For me, while I have a room at the Temple and that is home, a Jedi could live anywhere, be anywhere. Our ties are larger than a place.

Yes, and I won't deny that it does count. But I have spent years away from my home and I'm not alone. I can't say I've ever possessed a strong liking to any one planet or any other.

[ For all his time on Coruscant, Obi-Wan certainly holds no fondness for it. There are planets he might prefer over others, but that's hardly a feeling with any real strength to it. ]

[ He nods. ]

A drifter's lifestyle suits me fine. Being able to help while doing it - better suits a Jedi than others.

Nothing is easy, I'm afraid. Not even a pure motive.

[ Jedi only make it worse, a voice calls out in his mind. Obi-Wan shakes it loose. ]
beardstrokes: (Than giving it)

They probably never stepped out of their houses though.

Yes . . .

[ He runs a hand through his beard. ] Perhaps it is.

As do I. May the Force be with you.

[ He nods approvingly before cutting the feed. ]
