this is a game-wide mingle and the timeframe isn't super-important, so throw in with whatever you want! play war games, go shopping for gas masks, get lost in the wilderness, hide up in the Iskaulit and refuse to set foot on the moon, anything goes.

here's the main event info post for reference! have fun!]

[Jaina doesn't mind the breather so much as the wilderness itself. She's gotten used to the jungle of Yavin 4; this feels, to her, like a twisted version of it. This could be an excellent place if it weren't for the botched terraforming.

Mostly? She wants to clear the place and get right into one of those towers.]

This isn't my usual sort of hike. Find anything yet?

[Vima shook her head, resisting the urge to nag at her own mask. She's not that used to wearing something like this.]

Not yet... [She looks up at the nearest form of a tower in the smog.] If that tower has any kind of computer in it, we might be able to dig up some records, though. That could give us a clue or two.

[Jaina takes a moment with eyes closed, trying to see if anything catches her attention -- but if the Force is trying to tell her anything, she's not getting the message. A sigh, and a nod.]

Any security measures shouldn't be too hard to defeat, unless someone's been providing maintenance and updates.

[tobeajedi]

And if they are, that just lets us know we ought to be there. [But she doesn't expect anything either, tbh. It all looks pretty decrepit. She doesn't sense anything through the Force, either.] We'd better be careful, though. With these old buildings, you don't know what part of the floor or ceiling's decided it doesn't want to stay up anymore.

[As she knows herself from Ulic's whole ice palace of atonement thing. Though she suspects Jaina doesn't need the warning... Vima readjusts her mask and heads on up to the tower. It reeks of oil and assorted chemicals, and it doesn't look like there's any electricity active in the place.]

[two_jedi_sticks]

[A shrug, and she trots after Vima to catch up, looking for the entrance, considering if the mask is sufficient for whatever substances are on-site (what if it is absorbed in the skin, what if --).]

I know all about unsound structures. We've been trying to rebuild one of the old Massassi temples on Yavin 4, since Uncle Luke was using it for the Academy.

[tobeajedi]

[That makes Vima stop in her tracks. There's no mistaking that location.]

Wait--Yavin 4? The old Sith Temples?

[two_jedi_sticks]

[Jaina presses ahead, only sparing a glance back at Vima. She heard just enough from Vima's mother to know that the little moon was host to some pretty bad things back then, but Nomi and seemed pretty relieved that life on the moon was able to recover.]

I suppose they were Sith, too. But that's all in the past. The Great Temple's also been a base for a rebel alliance fighting an oppressive empire -- it's a perfectly usable building. It's not like it's a dark side cave.

[tobeajedi]

True--I guess any dark side taint would have a hard time hanging around for as long as it takes to get from my time to your time. [not like an ancient sith is gonna still be lurking around by that time right? right.] I like the idea that it becomes a rebel base. Is that in your time?

[While she's talking, she manages to unearth a side door and pulls away some junk. The hinges are rusted, but so is the body of the door itself. She pries it open, with much groaning and squeaking.]

Geez. I really miss my lightsaber.

[two_jedi_sticks]

Just a little before my time. About twenty years -- Mom was still pretty young, and fighting the Empire.

[Jaina slips to the side of the doorway while Vima pries at it, one hand up and peering just in case anything's waiting to come leaping out at them.]

It'd be nice to have around. But we can get the light part.

[Presuming an old building isn't properly lit inside, she'll pry a light off her belt and shine it in.]

[tobeajedi]

Your mom sounds like she's had an impressive career.

[The light illuminates... a lot of oily old junk. Vima steps in carefully, prodding the floor with her foot to ensure it's not going to collapse and glancing up at the ceiling to check that it's not going to come don on their heads.]

I think we're the only ones here... [She takes a more assured step further in, using her sleeve to wipe off a placard near the door: 008 DAYS SINCE THE LAST FATAL ACCIDENT. Well, that's inspiring. She tries what looks like a computer panel next to it, but it doesn't even beep.] I guess that's one sign against this place secretly being used by smugglers.
