Who: Luke Skywalker
Broadcast: Fleetwide (Accidental)
Action: Marsiva
When: 2/16
[Luke Skywalker is sitting pensively in front of one of the wide windows on the Marsiva's Hospitality Deck. Rather than staring out into the darkness of space, he's bent over a tiny silver disk in his hands. It's open, revealing a series of wires, something mechanical and complex. Lacking any proper tools of his own, Luke is replying it with careful fingers and, occasionally, teeth.]
[Lacking any proper supplies, he's forced to improvise. At one point, he removes the glove on his right hand. There's a burn over the back, but the flesh cracks open to reveal more wires and mechanistry. Luke pulls some wires out, breaks them and inserts them into the disk. It seems to cause some of the fingers on his hand to twitch irregularly, but the disk is repaired. He presses a button, and a little blue holograph of a smiling couple appears.]
[He stares at it for a little while.]
[Finally, Luke notices that he's being recorded.] Hello, there. How long have you been on, hm? [He reaches over and turns off the feed.]
[Actually wait. A second later, Luke turns the feed back on.] I suppose if all of this is being recorded, I ought to introduce myself. I'm Luke Skywalker. It's a pleasure to meet you. [His smile kind of... twitches.] All of you.

Oh, probably [someone has to have invented it at some point, can't throw a rock and not hit a comic book supergenius] but we also have androids, so.
[She shrugs. Just making conversation.]
Sorry about the hand, though. [Does she mean the original hand? Does she mean the damage to the prosthetic? WHO CAN TELL.]
no subject
Have you been here long, Nita? In the... Fleet?
no subject
[She wrinkles up her nose in distaste. Nita's the cheerfully adaptable sort, but the accommodations are lacking and she doesn't like the clothes.]

[And this is from someone who's perfectly okay eating frozen pizza and nuclear orange boxed mac 'n' cheese seven days a week.]

[If Nita knew anything about Tatooine she would definitely be on board with it being the place farthest from the bright center of the universe.]

[No, Nita.
Does she know jack shit about land-dwelling animals? No. No, she does not.]

...I dunno, maybe humans have them and I just don't know about it.
[The majestic bantha herds of Yellowstone.]

...Oh, uh, my people are aquatic, in case the "breathing water" comment didn't make that clear.
[It doesn't occur to her he might get hung up on the "TV" part.]
no subject
An aquatic species! I'm sorry, I didn't know. Most of the aquatic species I've met had more... gills. And fins. Not that those are necessary, of course... [He just thought they were?? science????]
no subject
It's vitally important you not think about how comic book biology works for even one second.]
They stay closed on the surface.
no subject
Oh, I see! Then you're an amphibious race?
no subject
I am. They're not. I'm half human.

[It's pretty obscure. You've probably never heard of it.]
The big two are humans and Atlanteans--my people--but there are a few other sentient species hanging around, too.
